shall_v incline_v man_n to_o expound_v those_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n this_o be_v my_o body_n of_o his_o natural_a body_n contrary_a to_o all_o the_o sacramental_a form_n of_o speech_n use_v in_o scripture_n do_v they_o not_o think_v it_o meritorious_a to_o believe_v impossibility_n and_o contradiction_n to_o return_v then_o a_o more_o direct_a answer_n to_o our_o author_n question_n what_o there_o be_v beside_o substance_n and_o efficacy_n belong_v to_o our_o saviour_n body_n i_o answer_v by_o nature_n there_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o by_o institution_n there_o be_v for_o there_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n which_o be_v neither_o the_o natural_a substance_n nor_o the_o natural_a efficacy_n of_o his_o body_n but_o a_o sacramental_a communion_n in_o the_o merit_n and_o efficacy_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n which_o be_v a_o spiritual_a eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ._n and_o since_o he_o want_v scripture_n for_o this_o i_o will_v give_v he_o a_o very_a piain_a text_n 1_o cor._n 10._o 16._o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o we_o bless_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ._n thus_o s._n paul_n explain_v what_o our_o saviour_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n by_o this_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n that_o be_v that_o those_o who_o by_o faith_n partake_v of_o the_o sacramental_a bread_n and_o wine_n do_v communicate_v in_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ._n this_o be_v a_o different_a thing_n from_o the_o mere_a influence_n of_o his_o grace_n for_o it_o be_v our_o interest_n and_o communion_n in_o his_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v the_o meritorious_a cause_n and_o spring_n of_o all_o divine_a influence_n and_o communication_n we_o must_v be_v mystical_o and_o spiritual_o unite_v to_o christ_n to_o have_v communion_n in_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o then_o we_o receive_v the_o fresh_a supply_n of_o grace_n from_o he_o which_o be_v the_o purchase_n of_o his_o death_n and_o the_o effect_n of_o our_o union_n to_o he_o and_o this_o communion_n with_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n we_o receive_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n for_o that_o very_a purpose_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n because_o it_o be_v the_o sacrament_n of_o our_o union_n to_o he_o whereby_o we_o communicate_v in_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n and_o if_o this_o be_v zuinglianism_n i_o see_v no_o help_n for_o it_o but_o we_o must_v be_v content_v to_o be_v zwinglians_n vi_o adoration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n i._n e._n of_o our_o saviour_n under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v idolatry_n i_o answer_v there_o be_v no_o such_o proposition_n as_o this_o teach_v in_o the_o church_n of_o england_n we_o teach_v indeed_o that_o bread_n and_o wine_n in_o the_o eucharist_n remain_v bread_n and_o wine_n after_o consecration_n and_o that_o to_o adore_v bread_n and_o wine_n be_v idolatry_n to_o adore_v our_o saviour_n be_v no_o idolatry_n but_o to_o adore_v bread_n and_o wine_n for_o our_o saviour_n may_v be_v as_o much_o idolatry_n as_o to_o worship_v the_o sun_n for_o god._n instead_o of_o answer_v this_o he_o tell_v we_o this_o blasphemous_a tenet_n be_v teach_v by_o our_o church_n and_o which_o be_v a_o little_a worse_o be_v practise_v by_o they_o for_o the_o majority_n of_o our_o pretend_a bishop_n do_v vote_n for_o the_o test_n and_o do_v all_o of_o they_o take_v it_o and_o i_o hope_v will_v keep_v it_o too_o that_o it_o be_v a_o canon_n of_o our_o general_n council_n the_o parliament_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v very_o good_a law_n and_o that_o be_v all_o we_o desire_v for_o our_o religion_n from_o parliament_n and_o thank_v god_n that_o we_o have_v it_o and_o since_o they_o be_v a_o general_n council_n may_v they_o insist_v upon_o their_o infallibility_n but_o what_o be_v the_o matter_n with_o the_o test_n why_o it_o declare_v our_o adoration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n which_o be_v the_o adoration_n of_o nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ_n to_o be_v idolatry_n be_v the_o eucharist_n than_o nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ_n do_v the_o council_n of_o trent_n say_v so_o be_v this_o the_o doctrine_n of_o any_o of_o their_o schoolman_n canonist_n or_o divine_n nay_o will_v this_o author_n venture_v to_o say_v that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ_n himself_o which_o be_v spick_a and_o span_n new_a popery_n if_o this_o be_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n no_o he_o do_v not_o dare_v not_o say_v that_o the_o eucharist_n be_v nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ_n but_o he_o say_v that_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n be_v the_o adoration_n of_o nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ._n but_o what_o palpable_a nonsense_n be_v this_o for_o if_o the_o eucharist_n be_v something_o which_o be_v not_o jesus_n christ_n than_o the_o adoration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n must_v be_v the_o adoration_n of_o something_o which_o be_v not_o jesus_n christ._n and_o yet_o though_o we_o shall_v suppose_v the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n to_o be_v true_a yet_o the_o natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n though_o it_o be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o the_o sacrament_n for_o there_o can_v be_v no_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n without_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o yet_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n decree_n that_o the_o worship_n of_o latria_n which_o be_v due_a to_o the_o true_a god_n be_v 5._o give_v to_o this_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o that_o we_o may_v know_v what_o they_o mean_v by_o the_o sacrament_n they_o tell_v we_o it_o be_v that_o which_o be_v institute_v by_o christ_n to_o be_v receive_v or_o eat_v which_o certain_o be_v the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n for_o they_o be_v sensible_a how_o absurd_a it_o be_v to_o worship_n what_o we_o eat_v to_o prevent_v this_o they_o tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v nevertheless_o to_o be_v adore_v because_o it_o be_v institute_v to_o be_v receive_v or_o eat_v the_o reason_n indeed_o they_o give_v for_o it_o be_v because_o christ_n be_v present_a in_o this_o sacrament_n but_o though_o the_o presence_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o reason_n of_o this_o adoration_n yet_o the_o whole_a sacrament_n be_v the_o object_n which_o be_v not_o mere_o the_o natural_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n but_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n under_o which_o be_v contain_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o therefore_o to_o adore_v the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o to_o adore_v nothing_o but_o jesus_n christ_n for_o the_o sacrament_n be_v somewhat_o more_o but_o then_o if_o the_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v false_a they_o have_v no_o other_o object_n of_o their_o worship_n but_o bread_n and_o wine_n and_o thus_o the_o church_n of_o england_n believe_v and_o thus_o our_o general_n council_n the_o parliament_n which_o make_v the_o test_n believe_v and_o thus_o all_o man_n who_o dare_v trust_v their_o own_o sense_n and_o reason_n believe_v and_o if_o it_o be_v blasphemy_n to_o teach_v that_o the_o worship_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v idolatry_n some_o of_o the_o m●st_o learned_a divine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v be_v guilty_a of_o this_o blasphemy_n and_o i_o shall_v be_v glad_a to_o hear_v what_o our_o author_n opinion_n be_v of_o it_o vii_o all_o christian_n whenever_o they_o communicate_v be_v oblige_v to_o receive_v in_o both_o kind_n for_o this_o i_o urge_v the_o express_a word_n of_o institution_n which_o do_v as_o express_o command_v we_o to_o drink_v of_o the_o 7._o cup_n as_o to_o eat_v of_o the_o bread_n so_o that_o if_o there_o be_v any_o command_n in_o scripture_n to_o receive_v the_o bread_n there_o be_v the_o same_o command_n to_o receive_v the_o cup_n nay_o indeed_o as_o if_o our_o saviour_n have_v purposely_o intend_v to_o prevent_v this_o sacrilegious_a take_v away_o of_o the_o cup_n from_o the_o people_n whereas_o in_o deliver_v the_o bread_n he_o only_o say_v take_v eat_v when_o he_o bless_v and_o deliver_v the_o cup_n he_o express_o command_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o it_o and_o i_o further_o argue_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o eucharist_n which_o as_o it_o be_v institute_v in_o both_o kind_n so_o it_o be_v not_o a_o complete_a sacrament_n without_o it_o and_o yet_o our_o author_n rub_v his_o forehead_n and_o confident_o tell_v his_o reader_n nor_o for_o this_o point_n can_v a_o scripture_n command_v be_v discover_v in_o the_o answer_n though_o the_o thirty_o article_n affirm_v that_o
