hold_v as_o a_o pagan_a and_o a_o publican_n he_o that_o read_v the_o precedent_n and_o subsequent_o shall_v soon_o perceive_v that_o these_o word_n serve_v not_o to_o prove_v that_o the_o roman_a

that_o the_o catholic_a or_o universal_a church_n be_v not_o there_o mean_v for_o to_o take_v up_o a_o quarrel_n between_o two_o brethren_n we_o shall_v in_o vain_a expect_v the_o judgement_n of_o

thy_o faith_n fail_v not_o peter_n then_o the_o roman_a church_n can_v err_v by_o the_o read_n of_o the_o whole_a passage_n it_o do_v appear_v most_o manifest_a that_o christ_n speak_v not_o at_o all_o to_o the_o church_n nor_o of_o the_o church_n but_o that_o he_o directe_v his_o speech_n only_o to_o the_o person_n of_o s._n peter_n prepare_v he_o for_o the_o temptation_n into_o which_o he_o

those_o who_o adore_v that_o which_o the_o priest_n lift_v up_o adore_v bread_n and_o call_v it_o their_o creator_n and_o their_o god._n i_o fall_v into_o this_o perplexity_n by_o read_v the_o

jesus_n christ_n speak_v in_o a_o tongue_n which_o the_o people_n understand_v seventh_o the_o gospel_n say_v that_o jesus_n christ_n take_v bread_n and_o break_v it_o clean_o contrary_a the_o roman_a church_n affirm_v that_o the_o priest_n do_v not_o break_v bread_n but_o the_o accident_n of_o bread_n to_o wit_n the_o colour_n and_o roundness_n of_o bread_n etc._n etc._n eight_o the_o gospel_n witness_v that_o jesus_n christ_n take_v bread_n break_v it_o and_o give_v it_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o roman_a church_n hold_v that_o the_o priest_n give_v not_o bread_n 10._o i_o find_v also_o in_o saint_n mat._n 26._o vers_fw-la 29._o and_o in_o saint_n mar._n 14._o vers_fw-la 25._o that_o jesus_n drink_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o vine_n that_o be_v to_o say_v wine_n it_o be_v then_o

sacrament_n can_v questionless_a understand_v by_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o vine_n the_o wine_n of_o a_o cup_n of_o which_o they_o speak_v not_o 11_o i_o also_o find_v in_o s._n paul_n cor._n 10_o ve_fw-la 16._o &_o cha_n 11._o ve_fw-la 26._o that_o we_o eat_v and_o break_v bread_n but_o the_o roman_a church_n say_v that_o we_o neither_o eat_v nor_o break_v bread_n 12._o it_o be_v apparent_a that_o saint_n paul_n expound_v these_o word_n in_o form_n of_o a_o paraphrase_n in_o this_o manner_n the_o bread_n say_v he_o which_o we_o break_v be_v the_o communion_n to_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o the_o roman_a church_n deny_v all_o this_o and_o say_v that_o it_o be_v not_o bread_n and_o that_o we_o break_v not_o bread_n but_o the_o speey_n and_o apparence_n of_o bread_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o these_o appearance_n of_o bread_n shall_v be_v the_o communion_n to_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n 13._o i_o find_v also_o in_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o the_o disciple_n assemble_v themselves_o to_o break_v the_o bread_n chap._n 2._o vers_fw-la 46._o and_o chap._n 20._o vers_fw-la 7._o it_o will_v seem_v a_o thing_n ridiculous_a to_o the_o papist_n if_o one_o of_o their_o religion_n go_v to_o receive_v the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n at_o easter_n shall_v say_v that_o he_o go_v to_o break_v bread_n 14_o i_o see_v that_o the_o gospel_n according_a to_o saint_n luke_n chapter_n 22._o and_o the_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n 1_o corinthian_n chapter_n 11._o inform_v we_o how_o these_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v to_o be_v understand_v for_o when_o they_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o cup_n in_o steed_n of_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n they_o thus_o expound_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n the_o bread_n than_o be_v the_o body_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o like_a manner_n as_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o cup_n be_v a_o testament_n which_o be_v not_o in_o substance_n but_o in_o a_o sacrament_n as_o also_o jesus_n christ_n call_v it_o a_o commemoration_n and_o as_o ordinary_o in_o scripture_n sign_n and_o sacrament_n take_v the_o name_n of_o that_o which_o they_o signify_v 15_o if_o the_o cup_n be_v the_o testament_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n as_o say_v saint_n luke_n it_o be_v not_o then_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o say_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n i_o will_v further_o confess_v unto_o you_o that_o when_o i_o be_v at_o the_o height_n of_o my_o ignorance_n this_o manner_n of_o speak_v as_o to_o lift_n god_n to_o carry_v god_n and_o by_o the_o mouth_n to_o receive_v the_o creator_n seem_v to_o i_o harsh_a and_o gross_a also_o i_o can_v not_o hear_v without_o grief_n some_o of_o the_o reform_a religion_n to_o upbraid_v we_o
with_o our_o priest_n make_v god_n and_o that_o they_o sell_v god_n for_o a_o little_a money_n in_o private_a mass_n and_o that_o if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o the_o host_n he_o which_o steal_v away_o the_o host_n must_v necessary_o steal_v away_o jesus_n christ_n they_o also_o in_o way_n of_o mockage_n tell_v we_o that_o our_o great_a doctor_n hold_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n may_v be_v carry_v away_o by_o mouse_n which_o will_v make_v any_o man_n hair_n to_o stand_v a_o end_n that_o have_v in_o a_o dear_a esteem_n the_o honour_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o bless_a saviour_n the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god._n moreover_o to_o affirm_v that_o christ_n body_n be_v in_o so_o many_o place_n and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o every_o crumb_n of_o the_o bread_n be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o the_o gospel_n which_o give_v he_o a_o body_n like_a to_o we_o that_o he_o may_v be_v our_o brother_n they_o who_o allege_v that_o his_o body_n be_v now_o glorify_a do_v not_o consider_v that_o when_o he_o make_v this_o sacrament_n his_o body_n be_v yet_o infirm_a and_o not_o glorify_v further_o his_o glorification_n have_v not_o change_v his_o humane_a nature_n but_o have_v only_o take_v away_o the_o infirmity_n of_o it_o there_o be_v also_o another_o inconvenience_n in_o the_o roman_a church_n which_o drive_v i_o from_o it_o which_o be_v that_o whereas_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o 10._o chap._n to_o the_o hebrew_n say_v that_o we_o be_v sanctify_v only_o by_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o romish_a priest_n say_v that_o the_o mass_n be_v the_o same_o sacrifice_n with_o that_o of_o the_o cross_n and_o that_o they_o sacrifice_n jesus_n christ_n real_o and_o true_o for_o our_o redemption_n which_o i_o utter_o dislike_v for_o whereas_o at_o first_o the_o romish_a priest_n teach_v i_o that_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v the_o only_a price_n of_o our_o redemption_n now_o they_o give_v i_o for_o the_o price_n of_o my_o redemption_n the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n which_o notwithstanding_o be_v not_o the_o death_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o the_o mass_n be_v the_o continuation_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o cross_n for_o than_o it_o shall_v be_v the_o continuation_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o so_o christ_n shall_v die_v continual_o to_o conclude_v they_o which_o affirm_v that_o the_o mass_n be_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n say_v withal_o that_o it_o be_v the_o application_n and_o commemoration_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n on_o the_o cross_n from_o whence_o this_o consequence_n may_v be_v derive_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o as_o the_o application_n of_o a_o plaster_n be_v not_o a_o plaster_n or_o as_o the_o application_n of_o a_o medicine_n or_o a_o rule_n be_v neither_o a_o medicine_n nor_o a_o rule_n so_o the_o application_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n chest_n be_v not_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n the_o same_o may_v also_o be_v say_v of_o commemoration_n purgatory_n be_v another_o cause_n of_o my_o separation_n from_o the_o romish_a church_n i_o learn_v at_o last_o that_o the_o popish_a purgatory_n be_v build_v upon_o this_o tenant_n to_o wit_n that_o jesus_n christ_n by_o his_o death_n and_o suffer_v have_v satisfy_v for_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n before_o baptism_n but_o that_o he_o have_v not_o satisfy_v for_o the_o punishment_n of_o sin_n commit_v after_o baptism_n i_o be_v very_o inquisitive_a after_o this_o doctrine_n as_o judge_v it_o to_o be_v a_o point_n most_o behooveful_a of_o all_o for_o a_o christian_n to_o understand_v since_o that_o it_o explain_v unto_o we_o what_o christ_n have_v do_v for_o us._n but_o though_o with_o all_o diligence_n i_o read_v the_o scripture_n yet_o can_v i_o not_o find_v there_o any_o mention_n at_o all_o make_v of_o purgatory_n i_o than_o grow_v bold_a and_o thus_o question_v some_o of_o the_o romish_a religion_n have_v not_o jesus_n christ_n pay_v enough_o to_o deliver_v we_o from_o purgatory_n and_o if_o he_o have_v pay_v enough_o why_o do_v not_o god_n accept_v and_o take_v this_o payment_n for_o as_o much_o as_o it_o be_v worth_a 2_o and_o since_o that_o christ_n make_v intercession_n for_o we_o in_o heaven_n why_o shall_v not_o the_o soul_n be_v rather_o quit_v of_o purgatory_n by_o his_o intercession_n then_o by_o the_o indulgence_n of_o the_o pope_n 3_o and_o if_o as_o the_o papist_n hold_v none_o of_o the_o faithful_a which_o shall_v live_v at_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n shall_v go_v to_o purgatory_n why_o can_v god_n as_o well_o exempt_v we_o without_o violate_v his_o justice_n 4_o it_o be_v true_a that_o nothing_o defile_v shall_v enter_v into_o paradis_n but_o saint_n john_n in_o his_o 1_o epist_n chap._n 1._o say_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n do_v cleanse_v we_o from_o all_o sin_n 5_o the_o roman_a church_n also_o hold_v that_o in_o purgatory_n sin_n be_v not_o purge_v away_o but_o punish_v it_o may_v therefore_o more_o fit_o be_v style_v a_o tormentary_a than_o a_o purgatory_n the_o ordrus_n and_o blot_n of_o our_o soul_n be_v not_o punishment_n or_o pain_n but_o sin_n of_o which_o jesus_n christ_n do_v cleanse_v us._n 6_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v apply_v to_o we_o but_o it_o be_v god_n that_o must_v prescribe_v the_o mean_n how_o to_o apply_v it_o for_o to_o we_o it_o be_v not_o permit_v to_o invent_v they_o moreover_o the_o ineane_v apply_v to_o a_o thing_n ought_v to_o
