their_o sacrifice_n either_o by_o kill_v of_o live_a thing_n or_o bruise_v of_o solid_a thing_n or_o shed_v of_o liquid_a be_v to_o express_v or_o show_v forth_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n in_o

against_o the_o adversary_n of_o the_o law_n and_o the_o prophet_n say_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o old_a law_n be_v shadow_n of_o the_o only_a sacrifice_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n not_o dispraise_v it_o but_o signify_v it_o for_o as_o one_o thing_n may_v be_v signify_v by_o many_o word_n and_o many_o tongue_n so_o this_o one_o true_a and_o singular_a sacrifice_n be_v before_o

of_o the_o old_a law_n be_v use_v to_o show_v forth_o the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n in_o sacrifice_n to_o come_v 6._o second_o we_o say_v there_o be_v make_v some_o real_a alteration_n or_o change_n in_o the_o thing_n offer_v not_o only_o to_o express_v the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n but_o also_o to_o signify_v the_o invisible_a contrition_n or_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n to_o god_n his_o dominion_n over_o we_o and_o our_o subjection_n unto_o he_o which_o s._n augustine_n in_o the_o 5._o chapter_n of_o his_o 10._o book_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n not_o only_o signify_v but_o also_o in_o the_o 19_o chapter_n of_o the_o same_o book_n further_o express_v say_v visible_a thing_n visible_a sacrifice_n sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a as_o word_n of_o thing_n sacrifice_n be_v sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a as_o sound_v word_n be_v sign_n of_o thing_n wherefore_o as_o when_o we_o pray_v or_o praise_n we_o direct_v the_o signefy_a word_n unto_o he_o to_o who_o we_o offer_v the_o thing_n signify_v in_o our_o heart_n so_o when_o we_o see_v man_n offer_v say_v he_o we_o know_v that_o visible_a sacrifice_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v offer_v unto_o any_o other_o but_o unto_o he_o who_o invisible_a sacrifice_n we_o ourselves_o ought_v to_o be_v in_o our_o heart_n thus_o s._n augustine_n whereby_o we_o see_v that_o exterior_a visible_a sacrifice_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n to_o god_n and_o of_o his_o dominion_n over_o we_o and_o our_o subjection_n unto_o he_o as_o sounding_z or_o articulate_a word_n be_v sign_n of_o thing_n and_o therefore_o as_o when_o man_n speak_v word_n to_o god_n they_o ought_v to_o have_v the_o same_o intention_n in_o their_o heart_n which_o their_o articulate_a or_o sound_a word_n do_v signify_v so_o likewise_o when_o man_n offer_v exterior_a visible_a sacrifice_n they_o be_v oblege_v to_o have_v a_o inward_a and_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o god_n thereby_o to_o acknowledge_v he_o for_o their_o lord_n god_n and_o to_o manifest_v his_o dominion_n over_o they_o and_o their_o subjection_n unto_o he_o because_o visible_a sacrifice_n be_v sign_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n god_n acknowledge_v for_o god_n by_o visible_a sacrifice_n invisible_a of_o our_o heart_n as_o word_n be_v of_o thing_n and_o ought_v not_o to_o be_v offer_v unto_o any_o but_o unto_o he_o who_o invisible_a sacrifice_n we_o ourselves_o ought_v to_o be_v in_o our_o heart_n and_o to_o who_o man_n offer_v the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o his_o heart_n he_o he_o acknowledge_v for_o his_o god_n creator_n etc._n etc._n and_o have_v no_o other_o god_n before_o he_o which_o god_n himself_o signify_v say_v son_n give_v i_o thy_o heart_n proverb_n 23._o whereupon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o offering_n of_o visible_a sacrifice_n be_v worship_n of_o latria_n or_o divine_a worship_n which_o be_v due_a unto_o god_n only_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v more_o at_o large_a hereafter_o 7._o though_o we_o ought_v chief_o to_o adore_v and_o serve_v god_n with_o our_o mind_n and_o spirit_n because_o god_n be_v a_o spirit_n &_o they_o that_o adore_v he_o must_v adore_v he_o in_o spirit_n and_o verity_n joh._n 4._o 24._o yet_o because_o the_o inward_a act_n and_o operation_n of_o the_o mind_n may_v be_v neglect_v without_o any_o notice_n take_v either_o by_o ourselves_o or_o other_o as_o we_o see_v by_o daily_a experience_n in_o the_o many_o thing_n which_o we_o do_v forget_v and_o the_o distraction_n in_o our_o prayer_n and_o because_o man_n be_v compose_v of_o body_n and_o soul_n it_o therefore_o please_v his_o divine_a majesty_n for_o the_o benefitt_a sacrifice_n the_o cause_n why_o god_n ordain_v visible_a sacrifice_n of_o man_n to_o ordain_v that_o these_o exterior_a corporal_a action_n of_o visible_a sacrifice_n shall_v be_v a_o sacred_a public_a and_o know_v sign_n of_o the_o inward_a operation_n and_o affection_n of_o man_n mind_n towards_o god_n thereby_o to_o oblege_v man_n under_o the_o penalty_n of_o hypocrisy_n to_o publish_v the_o inward_a desire_n and_o inclination_n of_o his_o heart_n in_o the_o service_n of_o god_n under_o visible_a solemn_a sign_n otherwise_o as_o s._n chrisostome_n in_o his_o 83._o homily_n upon_o s._n matth._n say_v if_o thou_o have_v not_o have_v a_o body_n god_n will_v have_v deliver_v invisible_a why_o visible_a thing_n be_v institute_v to_o represent_v invisible_a unto_o thou_o naked_a gift_n which_o shall_v not_o have_v be_v body_n but_o because_o thy_o soul_n be_v join_v to_o thy_o body_n therefore_o he_o have_v deliver_v unto_o thou_o intelligible_a thing_n unter_v visible_a form_n 8._o three_o we_o say_v that_o exterior_a visible_a sacrifice_n be_v not_o only_o offer_v for_o the_o cause_n above_o sacrifice_n union_n in_o religion_n and_o charity_n preserve_v by_o sacrifice_n say_v but_o also_o to_o signify_v our_o union_n in_o religion_n among_o ourselves_o under_o one_o god_n according_a to_o that_o common_a actiome_n those_o thing_n which_o be_v one_o to_o a_o three_o be_v one_o among_o themselves_o all_o the_o faithful_a sacrifice_v their_o heart_n to_o god_n have_v one_o heart_n with_o god_n and_o among_o themselves_o whereof_o proceed_v the_o communion_n of_o saint_n unyte_v in_o religion_n and_o charity_n among_o themselves_o for_o he_o who_o have_v one_o heart_n with_o god_n be_v one_o with_o god_n and_o one_o with_o all_o those_o who_o true_o and_o real_o offer_v the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o their_o heart_n to_o god_n whereupon_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o there_o never_o be_v any_o sacred_a communion_n among_o man_n but_o of_o meat_n offer_v in_o sacrifice_n as_o of_o meat_n offer_v to_o god_n for_o a_o sacred_a exterior_a sign_n of_o common_a union_n of_o man_n with_o god_n and_o among_o themselves_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v more_o at_o large_a in_o the_o next_o chapter_n 9_o now_o see_v that_o god_n create_v man_n and_o that_o it_o be_v necessary_a for_o man_n to_o acknowledge_v god_n invisible_a why_o visible_a sacrifice_n be_v institute_v a_o sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a for_o his_o lord_n god_n and_o to_o make_v a_o commemoration_n of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o to_o have_v peace_n and_o unity_n with_o god_n and_o other_o man_n and_o yet_o all_o man_n can_v not_o speak_v all_o language_n nor_o understand_v what_o shall_v have_v be_v say_v if_o those_o thing_n shall_v have_v be_v only_o act_v in_o word_n therefore_o out_o of_o the_o infinite_a providence_n of_o god_n for_o the_o benefitt_a of_o all_o nation_n it_o be_v necessary_a that_o this_o his_o honour_n and_o unity_n which_o he_o will_v have_v among_o all_o his_o servant_n shall_v be_v perform_v in_o outward_a solemn_a visible_a

kind_n it_o be_v necessary_a there_o shall_v be_v some_o outward_a visible_a thing_n institute_v which_o may_v not_o only_o private_o preserve_v in_o every_o one_o the_o honour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n and_o his_o neighbour_n but_o also_o maintain_v a_o public_a practice_n of_o the_o honour_n of_o god_n memory_n of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o unity_n among_o all_o his_o servant_n in_o what_o sacred_a outward_a visible_a sign_n can_v it_o better_o be_v express_v then_o in_o a_o visible_a sacrifice_n represent_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o the_o

the_o communion_n in_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n offer_v in_o unbloudy_a sacrifice_n it_o be_v manifest_a that_o both_o s._n paul_n teach_v the_o corinthian_n to_o offer_v
