can_v to_o the_o rich_a man_n who_o be_v in_o hell_n concern_v his_o brethren_n that_o be_v upon_o earth_n how_o they_o may_v prevent_v their_o come_n into_o that_o place_n of_o torment_n and_o he_o direct_v they_o to_o the_o scripture_n as_o the_o best_a and_o most_o effectual_a mean_n to_o that_o purpose_n they_o have_v say_v he_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n let_v they_o hear_v they_o now_o if_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n among_o the_o jew_n the_o same_o course_n have_v be_v take_v that_o be_v now_o in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n the_o rich_a man_n may_v and_o in_o all_o reason_n ought_v to_o have_v reply_v nay_o father_n abraham_n but_o they_o have_v not_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n nor_o be_v they_o permit_v to_o read_v they_o in_o a_o language_n that_o they_o can_v understand_v and_o therefore_o this_o advice_n be_v of_o no_o use_n to_o they_o and_o then_o he_o may_v with_o reason_n have_v press_v he_o as_o he_o do_v that_o one_o may_v be_v send_v to_o they_o from_o the_o dead_a to_o testify_v unto_o they_o but_o it_o appear_v that_o abraham_n be_v very_o positive_a and_o peremptory_a in_o this_o advice_n and_o that_o he_o prefer_v the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o scripture_n to_o any_o other_o way_n and_o means_n that_o can_v be_v think_v of_o and_o that_o if_o this_o have_v not_o its_o effect_n to_o persuade_v man_n to_o repentance_n and_o to_o preserve_v they_o from_o hell_n he_o do_v not_o know_v any_o thing_n else_o that_o be_v so_o likely_a to_o do_v it_o for_o he_o conclude_v if_o they_o hear_v not_o moses_n and_o the_o prophet_n neither_o will_v they_o be_v persuade_v the_o one_o rose_n from_o the_o dead_a and_o this_o be_v the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o parable_n which_o plain_o show_v what_o be_v the_o main_a scope_n and_o design_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o it_o namely_o to_o recommend_v to_o we_o the_o use_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n as_o the_o best_a and_o most_o effectual_a mean_n which_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n have_v provide_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o mankind_n and_o now_o any_o man_n will_v be_v apt_a to_o think_v that_o the_o declare_a judgement_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o case_n shall_v go_v a_o great_a way_n even_o with_o the_o most_o infallible_a church_n in_o the_o world_n however_o this_o we_o must_v say_v that_o it_o be_v in_o truth_n a_o very_a hard_a case_n to_o which_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v reduce_v man_n that_o it_o will_v neither_o allow_v they_o salvation_n out_o of_o their_o church_n nor_o the_o best_a and_o most_o effectual_a mean_n of_o salvation_n when_o they_o be_v in_o it_o i_o may_v say_v much_o more_o upon_o this_o head_n but_o this_o i_o hope_v may_v be_v sufficient_a the_o next_o instance_n shall_v be_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n which_o after_o consecration_n so_o frequent_o call_v the_o element_n bread_n and_o wine_n and_o which_o without_o reason_n or_o necessity_n put_v a_o absurd_a and_o impossible_a sense_n upon_o those_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o do_v no_o more_o prove_v transubstantiation_n than_o those_o word_n this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n do_v prove_v that_o the_o material_a cup_n which_o be_v use_v in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v substantial_o change_v into_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o no_o more_o than_o those_o text_n which_o affirm_v god_n to_o have_v eye_n and_o ear_n and_o hand_n do_v prove_v that_o he_o real_o have_v so_o but_o beside_o the_o contrariety_n of_o this_o doctrine_n to_o scripture_n nothing_o can_v be_v more_o repugnant_a to_o reason_n it_o be_v so_o big_a with_o contradiction_n and_o so_o surfeit_v of_o impossibility_n that_o it_o will_v be_v endless_a to_o reckon_v they_o up_o and_o beside_o all_o this_o it_o plain_o contradict_v the_o clear_a and_o constant_a evidence_n of_o four_o of_o our_o five_o sense_n which_o whoever_o contradict_v undermine_v the_o foundation_n of_o all_o certainty_n and_o then_o the_o communion_n in_o one_o kind_n be_v plain_o contrary_a to_o our_o saviour_n institution_n of_o the_o sacrament_n in_o both_o kind_n as_o they_o themselves_o acknowledge_v and_o therefore_o the_o council_n of_o constance_n be_v sensible_a of_o this_o be_v force_v to_o decree_v it_o with_o a_o express_a non_fw-fr obstante_fw-la to_o the_o institution_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o their_o doctrine_n of_o concomitancy_n as_o if_o the_o blood_n be_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o together_o with_o it_o will_v not_o help_v the_o matter_n because_o in_o the_o sacrament_n christ_n body_n be_v represent_v as_o break_v and_o pierce_v and_o exhaust_v and_o drain_v of_o its_o blood_n and_o his_o blood_n be_v represent_v as_o shed_v and_o pour_v out_o so_o that_o one_o kind_a can_v by_o no_o mean_n contain_v and_o exhibit_v both_o the_o next_o instance_n be_v the_o repetition_n of_o christ_n propitiatory_a sacrifice_n in_o the_o mass_n so_o often_o as_o that_o be_v celebrate_v against_o all_o reason_n because_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n once_o offer_v upon_o the_o cross_n be_v a_o full_a and_o perfect_a propitiation_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o therefore_o ought_v not_o because_o it_o need_v not_o to_o be_v again_o repeat_v for_o that_o end_n in_o any_o manner_n whatsoever_o and_o it_o be_v direct_o contrary_a to_o the_o main_a scope_n of_o a_o great_a part_n of_o this_o epistle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n which_o show_v the_o excellency_n of_o the_o gospel_n above_o the_o law_n in_o this_o respect_n that_o the_o expiatory_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o gospel_n be_v offer_v once_o for_o all_o whereas_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o law_n be_v perpetual_o repeat_v chap._n 7._o 27._o speak_v of_o christ_n who_o need_v not_o daily_o as_o those_o high-priest_n to_o offer_v up_o sacrifice_n first_o for_o his_o own_o sin_n and_o

that_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n be_v a_o unbloody_a sacrifice_n this_o instead_o of_o bring_v they_o off_o do_v but_o entangle_v the_o matter_n more_o for_o if_o blood_n be_v offer_v in_o

since_o the_o apostle_n lay_v it_o down_o for_o a_o certain_a rule_n that_o without_o shed_v of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n i._n e._n there_o can_v be_v no_o propitiation_n
