and_o here_o the_o jesuit_n find_v another_o misrepresentation_n that_o by_o the_o incarnation_n god_n be_v visible_o represent_v to_o we_o in_o our_o nature_n but_o the_o papist_n not_o content_v

of_o rome_n in_o sum_v up_o this_o argument_n i_o say_v since_o it_o be_v one_o main_a design_n of_o christ_n appearance_n to_o root_v out_o idolatry_n be_v it_o credible_a that_o the_o worship_n of_o

which_o if_o it_o be_v not_o idolatry_n yet_o be_v all_o that_o be_v visible_a in_o the_o idolatry_n of_o the_o heathen_n and_o it_o have_v better_o become_v he_o to_o have_v answer_v this_o

they_o have_v better_a notion_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o saint_n and_o angel_n and_o image_n than_o the_o heathen_n have_v but_o i_o say_v whether_o they_o have_v or_o no_o will_v be_v hard_a to_o

these_o be_v very_o different_a thing_n from_o external_a religious_a rite_n and_o if_o he_o know_v no_o reason_n why_o the_o conveyance_n of_o grace_n shall_v rather_o be_v confine_v to_o the_o two_o gospel-sacrament_n then_o to_o holy_a water_n or_o agnus_n dei_n or_o the_o relic_n of_o saint_n or_o such_o other_o popish_a invention_n i_o will_v tell_v he_o one_o because_o the_o spirit_n of_o grace_n be_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o derive_v his_o influence_n only_o to_o the_o mystical_a body_n of_o christ_n all_o our_o grace_n be_v the_o immediate_a influx_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n and_o nothing_o can_v entitle_v we_o to_o the_o grace_n of_o the_o spirit_n but_o be_v member_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o there_o be_v no_o visible_a sacrament_n of_o union_n to_o christ_n but_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o therefore_o no_o visible_a rite_n of_o convey_v the_o grace_n of_o the_o divine_a spirit_n to_o we_o but_o these_o again_o as_o our_o spiritual_a life_n consist_v in_o our_o union_n to_o christ_n so_o this_o union_n make_v we_o new_a creature_n for_o he_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n be_v a_o new_a creature_n now_o there_o be_v but_o two_o thing_n necessary_a to_o a_o new_a creature_n a_o new_a birth_n and_o a_o constant_a supply_n of_o nourishment_n for_o its_o increase_n and_o growth_n baptism_n be_v our_o regeneration_n or_o new_a birth_n whereby_o we_o be_v incorporate_v into_o christ_n mystical_a body_n and_o receive_v the_o first_o communication_n of_o a_o divine_a life_n from_o the_o holy_a spirit_n the_o lord_n supper_n be_v the_o constant_a food_n and_o nourishment_n of_o our_o soul_n wherein_o we_o receive_v fresh_a supply_n of_o grace_n as_o our_o natural_a body_n do_v new_a spirit_n from_o the_o meat_n we_o eat_v now_o let_v any_o man_n tell_v i_o what_o more_o be_v necessary_a to_o a_o new_a creature_n than_o to_o be_v bear_v and_o to_o be_v nourish_v by_o fresh_a supply_n of_o grace_n till_o it_o grow_v up_o to_o a_o perfect_a man_n in_o christ_n jesus_n all_o this_o be_v do_v for_o we_o by_o baptism_n and_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o if_o all_o divine_a grace_n must_v be_v derive_v to_o we_o from_o our_o union_n to_o christ_n as_o the_o member_n of_o his_o body_n nothing_o can_v be_v more_o congruous_a than_o that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o our_o union_n to_o christ_n shall_v be_v the_o only_a visible_a and_o external_a rite_n of_o convey_v all_o supernatural_a grace_n to_o we_o so_o that_o unless_o holy_a water_n and_o relic_n etc._n etc._n be_v new_a sacrament_n of_o our_o union_n to_o christ_n they_o can_v be_v no_o gospel_n conveyance_n of_o grace_n and_o by_o the_o way_n whoever_o well_o consider_v this_o will_v think_v it_o little_o less_o than_o a_o demonstration_n that_o there_o can_v be_v but_o two_o gospel_n sacrament_n because_o there_o be_v no_o other_o visible_a rite_n of_o unite_n we_o to_o christ_n and_o consequent_o of_o convey_v supernatural_a grace_n to_o we_o which_o be_v the_o notion_n of_o a_o sacrament_n but_o to_o proceed_v i_o come_v to_o apply_v this_o discourse_n to_o popish_a worship_n to_o see_v how_o consistent_a it_o be_v with_o that_o reformation_n christ_n have_v make_v of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n under_o the_o gospel_n and_o i_o observe_v in_o general_a that_o whoever_o only_o consider_v the_o vast_a number_n of_o rite_n and_o ceremony_n in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n must_v conclude_v it_o as_o ritual_a and_o ceremonial_a a_o religion_n as_o judaisme_n itself_o the_o ceremony_n be_v as_o many_o more_o obscure_a unintelligible_a
