descend vnto vs here below on the earth for to giue nourishment vnto our soules no more than it is needfull that the Sunne should come downe which without anie passing out of his set place ceaseth not therefore to make vs partakers of his heate light so is it with Christ otherwise it would bee to small purpose to lay hold on the incomprehensible vertue and power of Iesus Christ Of which power our aduersaries falsly speak so much against vs as if that we shuld go about to denie it although it appeare euidently that we think and iudge better and more reuerentlie of it than they doo For they cannot beleeue that we may be nourished with the bodie and blood of Iesus vnlesse that he bodily come downe from heauen in and vnder a morfell of bread to be subiect vnto mustines and to bee eaten of beasts and vermine as oftentimes it commeth to passe a thing which they cannot denie that such consecrated bread which they call Corpus Domini that is the bodie of the Lord hath been found rotten and mustie in a cubbard and part of it hath been eaten of rats and mice Moreouer if the bread and wine in the holy Supper should be really changed into the flesh and blood as some say then would it follow that Iesus Christ should bee meate for the infidels and vnbeleeuers aswell as he is for the faithfull which would be another great absurditie contrarie vnto the thinges that are taught by Iesus Christ in S. Iohn Ioh. 6.51.53.54.55.56 Iohn 6. To this may bee added that that Saint Paule saith to wit that he calleth it not flesh blood 1. Cor. 11.27 but bread and wine saying Whosoeuer shall eate of this bread and drinke of this cuppe vnworthely eateth and drinketh his owne damnation Also the holy scripture saieth not that Christ ought to come to put himself into the bread and wine vsed in the Supper after that the wordes are spoken but it saith When you shall eate this bread 1. Cor. 11.26 and drinke this cup you shall shew forth the Lords death till his comming that is to say vntill his bodely comming at that his last iudgement Nay further if the bread and wine of the holy Supper should be changed into flesh and blood then should there be no sacrament in the supper For as Sacrament as they themselues cannot denie is a signe of a holie thing so that the signe is not the thing it selfe There is a very great difference betweene the Truth and the signe of the same Truth The truth of the Sacrament is this Iesus Christ crucified for our sinnes the signe is this Bread and Wine which are called the Bodie and blood in the Supper because they are the true and vndoubted signes of the bodie and bloud of Christ as it is a phrase verie vsuall not onely in the holy Scriptures but also in prophane authors that the name of a thing is put for the signe which representeth the thing it self In like maner wheÌ„ the priests say that the bread and wine in the Supper doo by vertue of the Sacramentall wordes as they call them loose the true substaunce of Bread and of wine to be changed into the true substaunce of flesh and blood which thing consisteth onely in opinion and not in experience herein wee say that they destroye the Trueth of a Sacrament and wee may iustly call them Sacramentaries because that by theyr peruerse and frowarde opinion they doo ouerthrowe and annihilate the sacrament of the holie Supper by supposing putting in the roome and place thereof that that they haue deuised in their owne heads As indeede they are not able to prooue this word Masse throughout the whole holy Scripture neyther yet that the holy Prophets and Apostles did at anie time vse it so shall they neuer bee able to prooue this word Transubstantiation that is to say the chaunging of one substance into another by no author either Greeke or Latine but that it is a word that the schoolemen haue forged coyned in their own fantasie Now if they hereupoÌ„ alledge the ancient Doctors we are notignorant God be thanked how they haue spoken and are able for this purpose to alleadge manie sentences euen of those auncient Doctors which make for our purpose but that we purpose and labour to bee briefe And if that they obiect and alleadge vnto vs that there are many good things in the Masse as Pater i. Father the Gospell the Epistle c. Herein doo they not say any more than that that other mockers and deceiuers may say aswell as they For as wee doo see that good and wholsome meates are spoyled and spilt by meanes of a small quantity of poyson beeing mingled among them and as the golde and siluer beeing mingled with yron brasse lead or other base matter or mettalls for to falsifie the coyne thereof are iustly condemned and those likewise which make such counterfaits so in like manner we say that those good thinges whereof wee haue before spoken beeing put and altered from their true and naturall vse whereunto God hath appointed them for to bee iumbled and mingled amongst such a huge Chaos and heape of vnsauerie thinges cannot bee indeede acknowledged for good vntill they bee drawen from amongest those vnsauerie things no more than can a ring or signet of golde in the middest of a dunghill And if that God the Father and his sonne Iesus Christ had knowen that such good thinges should haue beene so applied for the saluation of this poore world they no doubt had been sufficiently wise to haue giuen notice and commandement of them and not to haue left them to the discretion of these men and manie other things which we haue omitted for breuities sake who thinking to doo better than GOD haue in so dooing by their owne inuentions abused this holy mysterie vnto the great dishonor of God and also to the pernicious hurte of the bodies soules goods of manie men To be briefe if after the wordes of consecration as they call them the bread and the wine in the holie Supper should be changed into the flesh and bloud of Christ as many do affirme this should yet no whit make for their Masse as wee shall easily knowe by a briefe conferring and comparing of the Supper and the Masse together which we will heere decypher and descrie setting the holie Supper by it selfe and the Masse by it selfe THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 1 Iesus Christ he himselfe ordained the holie Supper THE MASSE 1 The Masse was compyled made by manie Popes as we haue before shewed THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 2 Christ did not change his habits or garments to celebrate the Supper THE MASSE 2 The Priest disguiseth himselfe he knoweth not how to sing his Masse THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 3 Christ tooke common bread vsed at the Table at his Supper THE MASSE 3 The Priest must haue a whole cake baked

Deus noster in toto orbe terrarum Nicholas the first of that name caused the sequences to bee added to the masse It cannot be denied but that Sixtus the first of that name added vnto the Masse these wordes Sanctus sanctus sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth Innocent which was in the yere 405. added the kissing of the paxe Leo the first of that name added Orate pro me fratres And hee added also Deo gratias And further by prescript headded this Sanctum sacrificium immaculatam hostiam and this moreouer Hancigitur oblationeÌ„ Celestine the first he made and ordeyned the Offertorie Alexander the seuenth Bishop of Rome The beginning of vnleauened bread in the time of Adrian the Emperor in the yere 120. did now begin to violate and breake the ordinance of Iesus and ordeyned that the bread should be without leuen and not common as it was before Distinct 93. chap. Si quis And also he commaunded to mingle water with the wine in the holy supper De consecratione distinct 2. in capit de Sacramento And he first added vnto the Supper Qui pridie quam pateretur This doth verie euidently plainly prooue that Iesus Christ made not the Masse seeing that so manie men haue intermedled in the making thereof Furthermore this great addition or peece Teigitur clementissime pater which is one of the principall peeces of the Masse in which portion is mention made of the Pope of the Bishop and of the King dooth euidently prooue that Iesus Christ made not the Masse for in his time there was neither Pope nor Bishop The communicants also wherein is mention made of the holy virgine of the apostles and of manie saints which were long since the apostles time as Saint Cyprian Laurence Grisogon Cosme Damian and others doo plainly shewe that Iesus made not the Masse S. Peter put not himselfe in this number for then they would haue said that hee had sought his owne glorie There is yet one special peece of the Masse which beginneth thus Nobis quoque peccatoribus wherein is mention made of certaine apostles and saints both men and women mingled one amongst another as of S. Barbara Perpetue Agathe Lucie Agnes Cecilie c. who came and were in the world a long time since the death suffering of our Lord. So farre of was he from making the Masse which some affirme that we may easilie see the contrarie as appeareth by that which hath bin alreadie said As for those wordes which they call Sacramentall wordes to wit Hoc est corpus meum they doo in no sort make for the Masse For when Iesus Christ said This is my bodie this is my blood his purpose was not to say as doo the Priestes which giue men to vnderstand thus to wit that the bread is not anie longer bread and that the wine is not anie longer wine but are changed into the true substance of the flesh and bloud of Iesus but saith simply and plainly This is my body and calleth the bread wine in the holie Supper his body bloud in the same sence that before he called the Paschall Lamb by the name of the Passouer saying in S. Luke I haue earnestly desired to eat this Passouer with you Luke 22.15 Nowe wee know well enough that the Lambe was not the Passouer but it was a true Sacrament of it that is to say the true visible signe of that deliuerance which God wrought for his people Israel in Egype Exod. 12.13.26.27 So after that Iesus Christ had eaten the Lambe with his Apostles which Lamb he called the Passeouer for the reason and cause aforesayd now at that verie same time hee ordained the holy Supper to succeed the Lambe being the Sacrament of the olde Testament which was to haue an ende at his death and passion and called the bread his bodie the wine his bloud as if he should haue said I haue at this Feast eaten with you the Paschall Lamb which Lambe was appointed of my Father in remembrance of that deliuerance that he already made for your fathers in Egypt but this newe Sacrament which I appoint vnto you is the Sacrament of my bodie of my blood which is giuen for you on the Crosse to deliuer you from euerlasting death and as the Lamb in the Passeouer was a signe of their deliuerance in Egypt so heereafter this Sacrament shall bee vnto you a perpetuall remembrance of my bodie of my blood giuen vpon the crosse for you as appeareth by the verie words of Iesus saying Do this in remembrance of me Luke 22.9 As oft as yee shall eate this bread 1. Cor. 11.26 and drink this cup you shall shew the Lords death vntill his comming In which phrase or manner of speach we are to take heede for the apostle saith not When you shal eate of this bodie when you shal drink of this blood but he saith When you shal eate of this bread c. So when our Sauiour Christ gaue the cup he did not say I will not drink hereafter of this blood but he said I will not drink of the fruite of the vine Mat. 26.27 vntill I drinke it new with you in the kingdome of my Father Moreouer wee may easily see by the words of Iesus Christ to wit I will not drinke hencefoorth of the fruite of the Vine that hee himselfe eate the Supper with his Apostles if then the bread were chaunged into his bodie and the wine into his blood as many affirme then shoulde Iesus Christ haue eaten himself which is a monstrous absurditie to say Furthermore in saying This is my bodie we are to take heede how we vnderstand these words not according to the letter or carnally for hee that will take them so as some would should make Iesus Christ a lyar and which should haue said a thing which could not bee accomplished for giuing the bread hee said This is my bodie which is giuen for you c. and yet the bread was not hanged on the crosse for vs. Therefore to the ende that wee bee not deceiued wee are to take good heede to the interpreting of the words of the holy Supper not euerie one of vs to expound them according to our owne fantasie but to haue recourse vnto the words of Iesus Christ who saieth The flesh profiteth nothing but the spirite quickeneth Iohn 6.63 the words which I say vnto you are spirite and life So also Iesus Christ is not a kind of fleshly meate to nourish our bodies but is a kind of spiritual meate for to giue life vnto our Soules which are nourished euen by the verie substaunce of Iesus Christ in the holy supper although in respect of his bodie hee bee on high in the heauens as the article of our Christian faith teacheth vs which is done by the meanes of faith which is as it were the mouth of the soule Neither is it needful that he should bodely

A CONFVTATION of the Popish Transubstantiation Together with a narration how that the Masse was at sundrie times patched and peeced by sundrie Popes Wherein is contained a briefe summe of the reasons and Arguments which those render that will not receiue the Masse Translated out of French into English by PETER ALLIBOND Minister of the word of God Read and then iudge with discretion 2 Thess 2.11 And therfore God shal send them strong delusion that they should beleeue lies Printed at London by Thomas Scarlet for Thomas Man 1592. THE TRANSLATOR TO THE CHRISTIAN AND INdifferent reader Grace mercie and peace THou hast in this little Treatise gentle Reader these two things deliuered vnto thee 1 First here is shewed that howsoeuer our aduersaries the Papistes doo for the maintenance and vpholding of their abhominable Masse pretend antiquitie long continuance of time that yet the Masse was at sundry times collected and patched vp by diuers Popes some adding one thing some adding another as they thought good in their foolish imaginations Wherein they deale with vs as the Gibeonites did with Ioshua who for to saue their liues sayned themselues to be ambassadors Ios 9.4.6 that they came from farre craftely bringing with them old shooes old sacks mustie bread c. desiring Ioshua therfore to make a league with them Into whose dealings if Ioshua had looked throughly he should haue found them to haue bin but counterfets and dissemblers So notwithstanding that the Papists vaunt fay that their doctrine and their positions come from far and are as they say of great standing and antiquitie yet if we looke throughly into the matter and examine all things by the touchstone of the word of God which is the tryall of all trueth we shall finde their Popish Assertions to be vntrueths new vpstarts and counterfets They further obiect vnto vs that we depart from the Church and haue as they say a new innouated doctrine True it is that wee are departed from them as Moses departed from Egypt because they are departed from God his truth And for the newnesse of our doctrine as it pleaseth them to terme it it is euident that our doctrine and religion both in the whole and in the particulars therof hath the warrant and antiquitie of the holy Scriptures Abrahams seruantes digged welles for their masters cattel aster the death of Abraham the Philistians stopped them Ge. 26.16.16 the seruants of Isaac did afterwards dig them anewe so that the welles might in some sort be sayde to be new because they were newly digged So our religion with some may be thoght to be new not that it is so but because that it was of long time stopped and couered by the Popish Phylistians and is now the Lorde bee praysed for it discouered and found out by the holy and faithfull seruants of the Lord. For it is one thing to say that a thing is new because it was neuer in Esse before and it is another thing to terme a thing new because it is newly repaired And thus good Reader thou seest how our aduersarie may be answered in his obiection 2 Nowe for the other parte of this Treatise there is conteined in it a strong confutation of TransubstantiatioÌ„ wherin the Author who both for his name person is vnknowen vnto me vseth very sufficient and forcible arguments to confute their opinion so that I need not to speake much of that and yet somwhat I will be bold to ad namely that if their assertion for the reall presence bee true then there will this absurditie ensue to witte that Christ at his laste supper had two bodies For if as our aduersaries say that the bread was his body it is euident and playne that he sitting with his Disciples and performing the parts of a naturall man by his speech gesture and eating had a humane body so that if they affirme the former which they can neuer proue we dare auer iustifie the latter This is one of our aduersaries shifts that if any obiect vnto them that it standes not with a humane body to be in diuers places at one and the selfsame time they answere it and say that this is done myraculously by meanes of Christs glorification but then what will they say vnto this obiection for the bread in his last supper for eyther they must confesse that the bread was not his body or els that a body not glorified may bee in dyuers places at one and the selfsame time for this was done before his glorification resurrection or death There was euer betwixt Christ and vs this difference Heb. 4.15 to wit that he euer was without sin There is now further since his ascention this dissimilitude namely hys glorification and yet it is neither that that hee hath not which we haue namely sin nor that that he hath which we haue not though by fayth we be fully assured of it namely glorification that doo take from him the true parts of a naturall body and of hys humane nature The women namely Marie Magdalen Ioanna Mary the mother of Iames and others comming vnto the sepulchre of our Sauiour and to bestow their odors vpon him to embalme him it was sayd vnto them by the two men standing by theÌ„ in shining vestures Why seek yee him that liueth among the dead he is not here but is risen And so much more may it bee sayd to our aduersaryes why seeke ye him really in the bread Luk. 24.5 6. he is ascended he is not there S. Iames saith Ye aske and receiue not Iam. 4.3 because ye aske amisse And so the poore papists seek find not because they seek amisse For it is plainly sayd that the heauens must conteyn hym vntil the time that al things be restored which is to be vnderstoode 1. Kin. 8.27 Act. 3.21 not of hys diuine nature which the heauen of heaueÌ„s cannot conteyn but of his humane nature And to conteyn in one place namely in heauen and to be in many places in earth are contraries therfore that place in the 3. of the Acts being vnderstood of Christs body as it must needs be wil not permit any reall presence And thus much for the sum of the booke which is very short and small and therfore I must frame the boulk of mine Epistle answerable vnto the quantity of the Treatise lest the worke should be like vnto an Owle more head than body or for feare lest the porch should bee bygger than the Church I haue bin the more bold and willing at this time to take froÌ„ this Treatise the veyle of an vnknowen tongue to publish it both because at this time the Papists are very rife redy with their seducing Seminaries and Iesuites to delude and deceyue the people with theyr Masses tromperyes and also to manyfeste vnto others the fondnesse of their opinions that so men may looke vpon them as vpon rockes to auoyde them And

betwixt two yrons THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 4 Christ made his Supper at a common Table THE MASSE 4 The Priest must haue a consecrated Table as they call it to wit an altare wherein there must bee a certaine quantitie of Relickes enclosed in a cupboord in the middest of the altare which they call the sepulchre or at the least if the altar be not consecrated then must it be of marble Furthermore he must haue napkins as matters of substance or as it were standerds in their Masse as Durandus laboreth verie wel to shewe in his booke called Rationale diuinorum THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 5 Christ when he made his supper he preached taught his Apostles THE MASSE 5 The Priest muttereth out a certaine number of praiers turneth trimmeth his altar turning sometimes his backe sometimes his belly vnto the people goeth from one end of the table to another singing somtimes high sometimes lowe somtimes hee lifteth vp his hands and sometimes he kisseth them one holdeth vp his train holding in his hand a burning torch or a taper me thinke that such a sight should make a sad man change his countenance THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 6 Christ in administering his last supper spake in a knowen language common and vsed in the countrey THE MASSE 6 In the Masse they speak in a language that the greatest part of the Priestes themselues doo not vnderstand which is cleane contrarie vnto that that Saint Paule teacheth 1. Corinth 14 14 15 16 17 18. where hee sheweth that in the Church wee are not to speake anie other language but that that the people can vnderstand THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 7 In the Supper Iesus first brake bread then afterward gaue it to his Apostles THE MASSE 7 In the Masse the Priest turneth this order vpside downe for first hee saith a few words ouer the bread and then breaketh it when it pleaseth him but Iesus brake the bread and then spake the words THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 8 Christ said Hoc est corpus meum THE MASSE 8 The Priest hee addeth Enim saying Hoc est enim corpus meum THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 9 Christ said Take and eate THE MASSE 9 The Priest he sheweth the bread and wine vnto the people without giuing it vnto them but like a greedie glutton keepeth all vnto himselfe Which is not onely contrarie vnto the ordinaunce of Iesus Christ but is also against the custome of auncient men and times as appeareth by Canons set downe as some suppose by Anacletus and Calixtus where it was ordained vpon paine of excommunication that in the Supper all shoulde communicate after the consecration was perfourmed So likewise it is set downe in the Canons attributed to the Apostles and likewise in the Councell of Tholose Whereupon it doth euidently folow that the Masse such as is now vsed was not ordained by Iesus Christ neither yet celebrated by the holie Apostles and further that those which see it now partake in it are all excommunicate because they are not partakers in the Communion but the Priest onely taketh all to himselfe contrarie to the ordinance of Christ and of the auncient Fathers THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 10 Christ gaue not onely the bread but also the wine saying Drinke ye all of this as Mathew 26.27 THE MASSE 10 The Priest giueth to the common people but the bread onely and not the wine which is wholly not onely against the institution of Iesus Christ but also against the custome of the ancient Fathers which liued after the Apostles who communicated in both kindes and condemned all those which communicated but in one as it appeareth in their consecration dist 2. cap. Comperimus where it is said that all those which receiued not the Sacrament in both kindes are infidels and church-robbers and those likewise which refuse either the one or the other kinde THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 11 As touching the wine in the supper Christ mingled nothing with it THE MASSE 11 The Priest mingleth Water with the Wine which is the ordinaunce of a sinfull man as wee haue before shewed THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 12 Christ gaue the bread by it selfe and the wine by it selfe THE MASSE 12 The Priest breaketh the bread in three peeces one peece wherof he lets fal into the wine so mingleth theÌ„ both together THE HOLY SVPPER of Iesus Christ 13 Christ ordained his holy Supper in rememberaunce of his death and passion and that but once giuing his bodie blood vpon the Crosse for vs. THE MASSE 13 The Priest he saieth Masse in remembraunce of saints both meÌ„ women and for the recouerie of things lost Also he saieth Masse for beasts as for oxen horses asses for other beasts that are sicke because men giue him money for it And in so dooing hee is in stead of a plaister or a drug for euerie disease He saith further that he offereth vp Iesus Christ and presenteth him vnto God the Father for the sinnes of the quicke and of the dead Wee might alledge many other reasons why we would not ioyne consent to the masse which was neuer ordeined by Iesus Christ nor song by his Apostles neither yet by the auncient fathers which liued in the world a long time after them further that the Masse is a meere disguising of the holy Supper and a plaine derogation from the death and suffering of Iesus Christ Yea and if wee are to beleeue auncient Councels there shall we finde that those that wil heare the masse as it is nowe song are excommunicate as we haue already sufficientlie aboue shewed yet for breuities sake wee will for this time content our selues with these things that are here mentioned And for conclusion we receiue and imbrace that that S. Iohn saith Iohn 20.31 to wit that that which is written in the gospel is written that we might beleeue that Iesus is that Christ the sonne of God and that in beleuing wee might haue life through his name The masse is not written in the gospel whereupon it foloweth that we are neither to beleeue in it nor to looke for life by it Moreouer the Apostle saith vnto the Hebrewes Heb. 9 2â— that Christ was once offred to take away the sinnes of many hee dooth not say that Christ is offered vp many times for to take away sins but that he hath been offred once By consequence whereof the priest is a lier because he saith that hee dayly offereth vp Iesus Christ in the masse for the quick and for the dead Furthermore Heb. 10.12 the same Apostle vnto the Hebrewes saith that wee are sanctified by an offering once made by the body of Iesus Christ he doth not say being many times made And further 14. in the same chapter he saith that with one only offering hath he consecrated for euer them that are sanctified To be briefe S. Paul
