fine_o avoid_v the_o absurdity_n of_o excuse_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o mass_n for_o when_o we_o tell_v they_o it_o be_v superfluous_a to_o reiterate_v the_o sacrifice_n see_v that_o which_o

their_o solution_n but_o how_o do_v the_o apostle_n here_o contradict_v it_o thus_o the_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v offer_v and_o many_o time_n reiterated_a although_o it_o be_v the_o same_o be_v not_o effectual_a nor_o sufficient_a for_o the_o purgation_n of_o sin_n offer_v a_o objection_n of_o the_o papist_n answer_v wherein_o they_o say_v they_o offer_v not_o a_o other_o sacrifice_n but_o the_o

which_o christ_n have_v once_o make_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o none_o other_o i_o will_v always_o maintain_v against_o they_o by_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o if_o the_o oblation_n of_o christ_n have_v this_o virtue_n to_o appease_v god_n than_o this_o his_o sacrifice_n have_v not_o only_o put_v a_o end_n to_o other_o oblation_n but_o also_o that_o it_o be_v unlawful_a to_o reiterate_v the_o same_o whereby_o we_o see_v that_o it_o be_v a_o execrable_a sacrilege_n to_o offer_v christ_n in_o the_o mass_n but_o in_o those_o sacrifice_n there_o be_v a_o remembrance_n verse_n 3_o etc._n etc._n see_v the_o gospel_n be_v the_o ambassage_n of_o our_o reconciliation_n with_o god_n it_o be_v yet_o necessary_a that_o the_o remembrance_n again_o of_o sin_n shall_v be_v make_v always_o among_o we_o even_o at_o this_o day_n but_o the_o apostle_n signify_v that_o when_o sin_n be_v remember_v it_o be_v to_o the_o end_n the_o condemnation_n of_o they_o may_v be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o remedy_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n present_o offer_v he_o mean_v not_o every_o remembrance_n then_o but_o that_o which_o bring_v such_o a_o confession_n of_o fault_n and_o of_o the_o

right_o collect_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o law_n be_v weak_a because_o they_o be_v reiterated_a every_o year_n to_o obtain_v pardon_n true_o then_o a_o man_n may_v gather_v by_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v weak_a if_o it_o must_v be_v celebrate_v every_o day_n to_o the_o end_n the_o virtue_n of_o it_o may_v be_v apply_v

the_o same_o their_o sacrifice_n they_o blaspheme_v and_o offer_v wicked_a outrage_n unto_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v unpossible_a that_o the_o blood_n of_o goat_n etc._n etc._n verse_n 4_o he_o

and_o feeble_a so_o as_o there_o be_v necessity_n they_o shall_v be_v offer_v without_o cease_v for_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o they_o but_o the_o blood_n of_o beast_n which_o pierce_v not_o unto_o

go_v before_o 5_o wherefore_o when_o he_o come_v into_o the_o world_n he_o say_v sacrifice_n and_o offering_n thou_o will_v not_o 40.9_o psal_n 40.9_o but_o a_o body_n have_v thou_o ordain_v i_o 6_o

before_o this_o be_v perfect_o accomplish_v in_o all_o point_n to_o wit_n that_o god_n require_v no_o sacrifice_n there_o be_v such_o another_o place_n in_o the_o 16._o psalm_n vers_fw-la 10._o thou_o will_v not_o suffer_v thy_o holy_a one_o to_o see_v corruption_n for_o albeit_o god_n shall_v have_v deliver_v david_n from_o corruption_n as_o touch_v himself_o yet_o this_o be_v true_o and_o only_o
