a_o express_a proof_n of_o this_o be_v my_o body_n for_o if_o it_o be_v not_o his_o natural_a body_n as_o sense_n and_o reason_n tell_v we_o it_o can_v be_v than_o it_o must_v be_v only_o his_o sacramental_a body_n or_o his_o body_n by_o institution_n christ_n be_v visible_o present_a with_o his_o apostle_n in_o his_o own_o natural_a body_n when_o he_o institute_v this_o sacrament_n and_o therefore_o they_o can_v not_o understand_v and_o our_o saviour_n can_v never_o intend_v they_o shall_v believe_v that_o the_o bread_n which_o he_o bless_v and_o break_v be_v his_o natural_a body_n which_o they_o see_v before_o their_o eye_n that_o they_o eat_v their_o lord_n when_o they_o be_v the_o consecrate_a bread_n that_o they_o swallow_v he_o down_o into_o their_o stomach_n and_o yet_o all_o this_o while_n see_v he_o and_o converse_v with_o he_o as_o they_o do_v at_o other_o time_n the_o bread_n be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o be_v his_o break_a body_n which_o it_o can_v not_o be_v at_o the_o institution_n of_o this_o sacrament_n for_o christ_n be_v not_o then_o crucify_a his_o natural_a body_n be_v not_o yet_o break_v and_o therefore_o the_o break_a bread_n though_o it_o be_v his_o sacramental_a can_v not_o be_v his_o natural_a body_n his_o blood_n be_v not_o then_o shed_v and_o therefore_o though_o the_o wine_n be_v his_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n it_o can_v not_o be_v his_o natural_a blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n unless_o his_o natural_a body_n be_v break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v before_o he_o be_v crucify_v now_o i_o take_v that_o to_o be_v the_o express_a sense_n of_o scripture_n which_o be_v the_o only_a sense_n that_o can_v be_v make_v of_o it_o for_o a_o sense_n in_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a be_v none_o at_o all_o v._o our_o lord_n presence_n in_o or_o with_o the_o eucharist_n be_v mere_o gracious_a and_o influential_a and_o if_o more_o only_o to_o the_o faithful_a a._n there_o be_v no_o such_o proposition_n as_o this_o teach_v by_o the_o church_n of_o england_n that_o i_o know_v of_o we_o own_o the_o influence_n of_o the_o divine_a grace_n to_o accompany_v the_o external_a administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o this_o i_o suppose_v they_o will_v not_o put_v we_o to_o prove_v we_o own_o the_o sacramental_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v the_o consecrate_a element_n to_o be_v real_o present_a upon_o the_o altar_n and_o very_o and_o indeed_o eat_v of_o the_o faithful_a for_o so_o our_o saviour_n express_o tell_v we_o this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n and_o this_o be_v somewhat_o more_o than_o to_o say_v that_o our_o lord_n presence_n in_o or_o with_o the_o eucharist_n be_v mere_o gracious_a and_o influential_a for_o so_o he_o be_v present_a in_o all_o other_o religious_a duty_n but_o here_o he_o be_v so_o present_a that_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n with_o all_o the_o benefit_n of_o his_o death_n and_o passion_n be_v exhibit_v to_o worthy_a receiver_n as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v have_v be_v have_v we_o eat_v his_o natural_a flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n and_o therefore_o whatever_o difference_n they_o will_v allow_v between_o christ_n gracious_a and_o influential_a presence_n in_o the_o eucharist_n and_o eat_v his_o natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n have_v that_o be_v possible_a the_o same_o we_o allow_v between_o his_o gracious_a presence_n and_o eat_v his_o sacramental_a body_n which_o be_v to_o all_o the_o end_n and_o purpose_n of_o a_o sacrament_n the_o same_o by_o his_o own_o institution_n with_o his_o natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n for_o the_o carnal_a feed_n on_o christ_n flesh_n be_v not_o a_o sacramental_a eat_n of_o he_o but_o if_o by_o more_o he_o mean_v that_o christ_n be_v corporal_o present_a in_o the_o eucharist_n that_o his_o natural_a flesh_n and_o blood_n be_v contain_v under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n this_o we_o deny_v and_o it_o be_v a_o negative_a article_n it_o be_v ridiculous_a as_o i_o observe_v before_o to_o demand_v express_a scripture_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o the_o scripture_n let_v those_o who_o affirm_v it_o prove_v by_o express_a scripture_n that_o it_o be_v there_o for_o this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o this_o be_v my_o blood_n will_v not_o do_v it_o we_o own_o that_o it_o be_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n as_o well_o as_o they_o and_o therefore_o they_o must_v prove_v that_o it_o be_v christ_n natural_a body_n and_o blood_n and_o it_o be_v well_o for_o they_o that_o they_o have_v something_o else_o than_o scripture_n to_o trust_v to_o 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 a._n nor_o be_v there_o any_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 as_o romanist_n themselves_o confess_v and_o be_v easy_o prove_v from_o scripture_n if_o to_o give_v divine_a worship_n to_o creature_n be_v idolatry_n to_o adore_v our_o saviour_n be_v not_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 but_o this_o author_n put_v a_o fallacy_n upon_o his_o reader_n by_o a_o explanatory_a parenthesis_n 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 as_o if_o they_o only_o worship_v our_o saviour_n under_o the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n whereas_o they_o teach_v that_o the_o species_n themselves_o whatever_o they_o be_v etc._n to_o be_v sure_a not_o christ_n himself_o be_v to_o be_v worship_v together_o with_o christ_n and_o therefore_o according_a to_o their_o own_o doctrine_n they_o must_v worship_v something_o which_o be_v not_o christ._n and_o let_v they_o consider_v what_o name_n to_o give_v this_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 a._n and_o why_o do_v he_o not_o ask_v we_o to_o prove_v that_o all_o christian_n whenever_o they_o communicate_v be_v oblige_v to_o receive_v the_o bread_n for_o there_o be_v the_o same_o institution_n for_o the_o wine_n that_o there_o be_v for_o the_o bread._n there_o be_v no_o other_o rule_n in_o matter_n of_o institution_n but_o to_o observe_v the_o institution_n and_o since_o the_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v in_o both_o kind_n and_o neither_o christ_n nor_o his_o apostle_n have_v tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o receive_v in_o one_o kind_n we_o think_v this_o reason_n enough_o to_o assert_v that_o all_o christian_n when_o they_o do_v communicate_v must_v communicate_v in_o both_o kind_n and_o indeed_o this_o sacrament_n be_v not_o complete_a without_o it_o for_o if_o we_o consider_v it_o as_o a_o spiritual_a feast_n wine_n as_o well_o as_o bread_n to_o drink_v as_o well_o as_o to_o eat_v be_v essential_a to_o a_o feast_n if_o we_o consider_v the_o end_n of_o the_o institution_n to_o be_v a_o commemoration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o expiation_n of_o his_o blood_n how_o can_v we_o commemorate_v sacramental_o the_o expiation_n of_o his_o blood_n without_o drink_v his_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n for_o to_o eat_v his_o blood_n together_o with_o his_o flesh_n as_o they_o pretend_v do_v not_o represent_v his_o break_a body_n and_o his_o blood_n shed_v but_o his_o whole_a body_n with_o flesh_n and_o blood_n together_o which_o contradict_v the_o very_a institution_n of_o this_o supper_n and_o if_o we_o partake_v of_o no_o benefit_n in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o what_o we_o sacramental_o commemorate_v i_o will_v desire_v this_o author_n to_o tell_v i_o how_o those_o who_o do_v not_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n this_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n obtain_v the_o remission_n of_o their_o sin_n a_o very_a material_a thing_n for_o those_o to_o consider_v who_o will_v be_v sure_a of_o their_o salvation_n viii_o chastity_n deliberate_o vow_v may_v be_v inoffensive_o violate_v a._n this_o be_v
