proof_n of_o christian_a religion_n depend_v on_o the_o truth_n of_o certain_a fact_n which_o we_o never_o see_v but_o which_o be_v attest_v to_o we_o by_o person_n who_o testimony_n ought_v not_o

if_o we_o run_v through_o the_o most_o important_a of_o these_o fact_n the_o most_o considerable_a and_o the_o most_o decisive_a be_v without_o difficulty_n be_v our_o saviour_n resurrection_n for_o

oppose_v with_o great_a strength_n than_o mr._n huet_n can_v bring_v forth_o to_o maintain_v it_o in_o effect_n do_v transubstantiation_n make_v a_o part_n of_o christian_a religion_n one_o may_v

one_o may_v offer_v all_o this_o same_o evidence_n against_o christianity_n be_v it_o true_a that_o christianity_n comprehend_v transubstantiation_n this_o be_v that_o which_o oppose_v christianity_n in_o your_o principle_n let_v we_o see_v now_o what_o mr._n huet_n do_v to_o maintain_v it_o he_o bring_v argument_n which_o as_o we_o have_v already_o observe_v be_v only_o ground_v on_o moral_a evidence_n which_o be_v never_o half_a so_o great_a as_o that_o of_o sense_n if_o then_o two_o be_v more_o than_o one_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o grant_v transubstantiation_n to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o christian_a doctrine_n christianity_n be_v attack_v with_o great_a strength_n than_o mr._n huet_n can_v defend_v it_o with_o it_o be_v clear_a according_a to_o this_o supposition_n a_o infidel_n

of_o the_o number_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n by_o which_o mean_n the_o proof_n of_o this_o holy_a religion_n will_v conserve_v all_o their_o strength_n and_o the_o infidel_n will_v have_v nothing_o that_o be_v rational_a to_o oppose_v against_o they_o these_o proof_n be_v most_o solid_a in_o themselves_o and_o capable_a of_o convince_a every_o reasonable_a body_n who_o search_v the_o truth_n and_o be_v dispose_v to_o follow_v it_o through_o all_o part_n where_o he_o find_v it_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o transubstantiation_n which_o weaken_v they_o grant_v transubstantiation_n these_o proof_n will_v be_v of_o no_o validity_n take_v away_o this_o doctrine_n our_o proof_n subsist_v and_o have_v their_o effect_n it_o do_v not_o belong_v then_o to_o your_o doctor_n who_o hold_v transubstantiation_n to_o defend_v christianity_n the_o best_a argument_n will_v never_o be_v good_a one_o in_o their_o mouth_n only_o we_o can_v propose_v they_o without_o weaken_v they_o so_o that_o i_o tell_v you_o nothing_o but_o what_o you_o find_v true_a when_o i_o affirm_v a_o while_n ago_o that_o mr._n huet_n book_n which_o will_v be_v a_o excellent_a work_n be_v it_o write_v by_o a_o protestant_n be_v without_o conviction_n come_v from_o a_o man_n of_o your_o party_n and_o this_o be_v sir_n my_o first_o conclusion_n the_o second_o follow_v which_o be_v that_o whereas_o a_o infidel_n to_o who_o be_v offer_v mr._n huet_n argument_n without_o any_o mention_n of_o transubstantiation_n or_o who_o shall_v suppose_v that_o christianity_n do_v not_o oblige_v we_o to_o believe_v it_o will_v be_v irrational_a shall_v he_o not_o embrace_v a_o religion_n so_o well_o ground_v so_o in_o like_a manner_n he_o will_v fall_v in_o to_o as_o great_a a_o fault_n and_o act_n as_o much_o against_o reason_n if_o suppose_v the_o contrary_a and_o let_v himself_o be_v persuade_v one_o can_v be_v a_o christian_n without_o believe_a transubstantiation_n he_o shall_v receive_v both_o transubstantiation_n and_o christian_a religion_n what_o i_o have_v now_o be_v say_v to_o you_o do_v necessary_o draw_v along_o with_o it_o this_o consequence_n but_o to_o remark_n more_o clear_o the_o necessity_n of_o it_o be_v please_v to_o observe_v that_o what_o make_v a_o infidel_n a_o christian_n be_v the_o reason_n which_o persuade_v he_o that_o the_o christian_a religion_n be_v reveal_v by_o god._n in_o effect_n that_o which_o induce_v we_o to_o believe_v thing_n be_v the_o reason_n good_a or_o bad_a which_o seem_v to_o we_o to_o uphold_v the_o opinion_n which_o we_o embrace_v so_o that_o shall_v one_o persuade_v one_o self_n of_o any_o thing_n without_o ground_n or_o reason_n that_o man_n will_v act_v foolish_o and_o sottish_o though_o the_o thing_n itself_o shall_v be_v true_a so_o the_o infidel_n who_o shall_v make_v himself_o a_o christian_n without_o reason_n will_v apparent_o offend_v against_o good_a sense_n and_o this_o be_v the_o general_a

he_o believe_v wise_o and_o judicious_o but_o it_o seldom_o happen_v that_o the_o reason_n be_v all_o on_o one_o side_n there_o be_v common_o some_o for_o and_o some_o against_o
sense_n be_v deceive_v in_o take_v for_o bread_n and_o wine_n what_o be_v not_o so_o the_o second_o be_v that_o if_o our_o sense_n may_v be_v mistake_v in_o the_o eucharist_n they_o may_v be_v as_o well_o mistake_v in_o every_o thing_n else_o so_o that_o their_o deposition_n have_v nothing_o certain_a the_o three_o be_v that_o if_o our_o sense_n may_v be_v mistake_v in_o the_o discovery_n of_o their_o object_n be_v they_o what_o they_o will_v the_o proof_n of_o christian_a religion_n be_v of_o no_o value_n the_o better_a to_o comprehend_v the_o force_n of_o this_o argument_n i_o believe_v it_o will_v not_o be_v amiss_o to_o pass_v over_o it_o again_o and_o careful_o to_o examine_v its_o proposition_n the_o first_o appear_v to_o i_o very_o evident_a for_o i_o have_v always_o take_v error_n to_o be_v the_o persuade_v of_o a_o man_n self_n that_o a_o thing_n be_v what_o it_o be_v not_o or_o to_o judge_n that_o it_o be_v not_o what_o it_o be_v this_o be_v grant_v it_o can_v be_v

they_o do_v if_o transubstantiation_n take_v place_n for_o in_o fine_a if_o this_o doctrine_n be_v true_a the_o eucharist_n will_v not_o be_v bread_n and_o wine_n but_o our_o saviour_n proper_a body_n

wine_n to_o prove_v what_o i_o say_v show_v the_o eucharist_n to_o a_o infidel_n who_o have_v no_o knowledge_n of_o your_o mystery_n and_o ask_v he_o what_o it_o be_v he_o will_v answer_v without_o

that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o without_o give_v the_o lie_n to_o these_o faculty_n this_o will_v appear_v more_o clear_o if_o you_o please_v to_o consider_v that_o the_o faculty_n which_o tell_v we_o
