object_n of_o holy_a worship_n we_o must_v give_v the_o eucharist_n in_o both_o kind_n according_a to_o christ_n express_a institution_n we_o must_v understand_v our_o prayer_n when_o st._n paul_n word_n be_v so_o clear_a about_o it_o so_o far_o at_o least_o we_o have_v plain_a and_o positive_a word_n of_o scripture_n on_o our_o side_n and_o for_o implication_n and_o far_o fetch_v

beginning_n to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o apocalypse_n but_o that_o which_o seem_v to_o be_v aim_v at_o here_o be_v this_o be_v my_o body_n wherein_o the_o word_n seem_v to_o be_v plain_a and_o positive_a on_o their_o side_n and_o our_o sense_n to_o be_v from_o implication_n or_o far-fetched_a interpretation_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o there_o be_v expression_n in_o scripture_n as_o plain_a and_o positive_a as_o this_o which_o none_o think_v themselves_o bind_v to_o understand_v in_o their_o literal_a sense_n for_o than_o we_o must_v all_o believe_v that_o god_n have_v eye_n

positive_a word_n of_o scripture_n as_o we_o be_v and_o yet_o i_o hope_v the_o christian_a church_n do_v then_o believe_v itself_o suppose_v any_o shall_v assert_v that_o the_o rock_n in_o the_o wilderness_n be_v real_o change_v into_o christ_n body_n will_v not_o he_o have_v the_o very_a same_o thing_n to_o say_v against_o those_o who_o deny_v it_o for_o be_v not_o the_o word_n as_o plain_a and_o as_o positive_a that_o rock_n be_v christ_n but_o sacramental_a expression_n by_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o christian_a church_n and_o the_o very_a neture_n of_o the_o thing_n be_v of_o a_o

call_v it_o bread_n after_o consecration_n nor_o the_o cup_n be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o his_o blood_n the_o conclusion_n be_v be_v there_o any_o other_o foundation_n of_o the_o protestant_a church_n but_o that_o if_o the_o civil_a magistrate_n please_v he_o may_v call_v such_o of_o the_o clergy_n as_o he_o think_v fit_a for_o his_o turn_n at_o that_o time_n and_o turn_v

the_o church_n of_o england_n for_o her_o zeal_n in_o assert_v the_o magistrate_n power_n against_o a_o foreign_a jurisdiction_n to_o infer_v from_o thence_o that_o the_o magistrate_n may_v change_v the_o religion_n here_o which_o way_n he_o please_v but_o although_o we_o attribute_v the_o supreme_a jurisdiction_n to_o the_o king_n yet_o we_o do_v not_o question_v but_o there_o be_v inviolable_a right_n of_o the_o church_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v preserve_v against_o the_o fancy_n of_o some_o and_o the_o usurpation_n of_o other_o we_o do_v by_o no_o mean_n make_v our_o religion_n mutable_a according_a to_o the_o magistrate_n pleasure_n for_o the_o rule_n of_o our_o religion_n be_v unalterable_a be_v the_o holy_a scripture_n but_o the_o exercise_n of_o it_o be_v under_o the_o
