sacrament_n of_o the_o passover_n be_v a_o type_n of_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n and_o the_o thing_n typify_v be_v always_o more_o excellent_a than_o the_o type_n but_o if_o the_o

of_o the_o eucharist_n will_v not_o be_v more_o excellent_a than_o that_o of_o the_o passover_n nay_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o passover_n will_v be_v more_o excellent_a than_o that_o of_o the_o eucharist_n because_o a_o lamb_n and_o its_o blood_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o the_o death_n of_o a_o lamb_n and_o the_o shed_n of_o its_o blood_n do_v much_o better_o represent_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o shed_n of_o his_o blood_n on_o the_o cross_n than_o bread_n break_v and_o wine_n pour_v into_o a_o cup_n can_v do_v answer_n 9_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o thing_n typify_v by_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n be_v jesus_n christ_n and_o not_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n as_o st._n paul_n show_v clear_o 1_o cor._n 5._o when_o he_o call_v jesus_n christ_n our_o passover_n in_o these_o word_n christ_n our_o passover_n be_v crucify_v for_o we_o the_o truth_n be_v a_o whole_a lamb_n without_o spot_n or_o blemish_v kill_v and_o burn_v towards_o the_o evening_n and_o its_o blood_n shed_v do_v very_o well_o represent_v jesus_n christ_n perfect_a without_o sin_n put_v to_o death_n and_o his_o blood_n shed_v towards_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o in_o the_o fullness_n of_o time_n but_o such_o a_o lamb_n represent_v nothing_o of_o that_o which_o be_v see_v in_o the_o eucharist_n beside_o the_o type_n and_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v institute_v that_o the_o faithful_a of_o those_o time_n may_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o thing_n typify_v and_o signify_v for_o the_o salvation_n of_o their_o soul_n but_o the_o faithful_a under_o the_o old_a testament_n never_o come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o eucharist_n by_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n and_o though_o they_o have_v come_v to_o the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o yet_o they_o have_v have_v no_o benefit_n thereby_o in_o a_o word_n see_v the_o passover_n and_o the_o eucharist_n be_v type_n image_n and_o sign_n of_o jesus_n christ_n it_o be_v very_o impertinent_a to_o say_v that_o the_o passover_n be_v the_o type_n of_o the_o eucharist_n because_o a_o type_n be_v not_o proper_o the_o type_n of_o another_o type_n but_o only_o of_o the_o thing_n typify_v as_o the_o image_n of_o caesar_n be_v not_o the_o image_n of_o another_o image_n of_o caesar_n but_o only_o of_o caesar_n himself_o 10._o second_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o excellence_n of_o one_o sacrament_n above_o another_o must_v be_v draw_v from_o its_o form_n and_o efficacy_n and_o not_o from_o its_o matter_n because_o it_o be_v form_n that_o chief_o give_v be_v to_o thing_n compose_v of_o matter_n and_o form_n but_o the_o form_n of_o sacrament_n depend_v on_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n because_o be_v sign_n of_o divine_a institution_n their_o form_n can_v only_o depend_v upon_o the_o will_n of_o god_n who_o choose_v certain_a thing_n to_o signify_v other_o thing_n and_o this_o will_n of_o god_n can_v be_v know_v but_o by_o revelation_n which_o be_v the_o word_n so_o that_o it_o be_v proper_o say_v that_o the_o word_n join_v with_o the_o element_n make_v the_o sacrament_n therefore_o although_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o passover_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o the_o eucharist_n in_o respect_n of_o its_o matter_n because_o the_o paschal_n lamb_n and_o its_o blood_n be_v more_o excellent_a than_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n of_o the_o eucharist_n and_o that_o the_o lamb_n and_o its_o blood_n have_v a_o great_a analogy_n with_o

this_o be_v it_o that_o jesus_n christ_n teach_v we_o st._n john_n 3._o in_o these_o word_n as_o moses_n lift_v up_o the_o serpent_n in_o the_o wilderness_n even_o so_o must_v the_o son_n of_o man_n

in_o his_o blood_n he_o do_v not_o say_v through_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n but_o through_o faith_n and_o we_o real_o and_o true_o apply_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n cross_n when_o

most_o famous_a of_o all_o the_o romish_a doctor_n and_o call_v by_o our_o adversary_n the_o angelical_a doctor_n this_o thomas_n in_o part._n 3._o quest_n 83._o artic._n 1._o have_v propose_v this_o

very_o fit_o call_v a_o sacrifice_a of_o christ_n as_o well_o because_o it_o be_v the_o representation_n of_o christ_n passion_n as_o because_o by_o this_o sacrament_n we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lord_n passion_n and_o afterward_o he_o give_v his_o answer_n in_o these_o word_n i_o answer_v we_o must_v say_v that_o the_o celebration_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v call_v a_o sacrifice_a of_o christ_n in_o two_o respect_n first_o because_o as_o augustine_n to_o simplicius_n say_v we_o be_v wont_n to_o give_v to_o image_n the_o name_n of_o the_o thing_n whereof_o they_o be_v image_n as_o when_o we_o see_v picture_n on_o a_o wall_n or_o in_o a_o frame_n we_o say_v this_o be_v cicero_n that_o be_v sallust_n etc._n etc._n but_o the_o celebration_n of_o this_o sacrament_n as_o have_v be_v say_v above_o be_v a_o representative_a image_n of_o christ_n passion_n which_o passion_n be_v the_o true_a sacrifice_v of_o christ_n and_o so_o the_o celebration_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v the_o sacrifice_a of_o christ._n second_o the_o celebration_n of_o this_o sacrament_n be_v call_v the_o sacrifice_a of_o christ_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o effect_n of_o christ_n passion_n because_o by_o this_o sacrament_n we_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o lord_n passion_n let_v the_o romanist_n keep_v to_o this_o decision_n of_o their_o angelical_a doctor_n and_o we_o shall_v agree_v with_o they_o in_o this_o point_n for_o i_o be_o confident_a that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o the_o reform_a religion_n but_o will_v subscribe_v this_o true_a doctrine_n of_o thomas_n aquinas_n chap._n viii_o contain_v answer_n to_o the_o objection_n of_o the_o romish_a doctor_n 1._o in_o the_o two_o first_o chapter_n we_o have_v answer_v the_o two_o principal_a objection_n of_o the_o romish_a doctor_n draw_v from_o these_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n etc._n etc._n and_o from_o these_o he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n etc._n etc._n now_o we_o must_v answer_v the_o rest_n objection_n 1._o 2._o the_o first_o objection_n be_v this_o when_o the_o establish_n of_o article_n of_o faith_n the_o institution_n of_o sacrament_n and_o the_o make_v testament_n and_o covenant_n be_v in_o agitation_n man_n speak_v plain_o and_o proper_o and_o not_o obscure_o or_o figuravite_o but_o in_o the_o celebration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n jesus_n christ_n establish_v a_o article_n of_o faith_n institute_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n and_o speak_v of_o a_o testament_n and_o a_o covenant_n for_o it_o be_v say_v of_o the_o cup_n that_o it_o be_v the_o new_a testament_n and_o the_o new_a covenant_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n yea_o he_o speak_v then_o to_o his_o disciple_n to_o who_o he_o speak_v in_o plain_a and_o proper_a term_n and_o not_o in_o obscure_a term_n or_o in_o figure_n or_o parable_n as_o he_o do_v to_o the_o people_n answer_n 3._o to_o this_o objection_n i_o answer_v first_o that_o it_o be_v false_a that_o article_n of_o faith_n be_v always_o express_v in_o proper_a term_n in_o holy_a scripture_n as_o when_o it_o be_v say_v in_o the_o creed_n that_o jesus_n christ_n sit_v on_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o this_o be_v a_o figure_n and_o a_o metaphor_n for_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n have_v neither_o right_a hand_n nor_o leave_v and_o all_o interpreter_n expound_v this_o sit_v on_o god_n right_a hand_n metaphorical_o viz._n for_o that_o lordship_n both_o of_o heaven_n and_o earth_n which_o he_o have_v receive_v from_o god_n his_o father_n as_o earthly_a prince_n make_v their_o lieutenant_n who_o they_o appoint_v to_o govern_v in_o their_o name_n to_o sit_v on_o the_o right_a side_n of_o they_o again_o when_o it_o be_v say_v st._n matth._n 16._o upon_o this_o rock_n i_o will_v build_v my_o church_n and_o the_o gate_n of_o hell_n shall_v not_o prevail_v against_o it_o and_o i_o will_v
