tooke a Bible and turning himselfe towards Monsieur de Liembrune said that he would shew that vnder the old law the Church was neuer without Sacrificers Du Moul. That is nothing to the purpose we speake of the authoritie which Bishops haue to make Sacrificers vnder the new Testament Gont. Whereupon Gontier being at a stand asked for pen and inke which being brought hee falls a writing without speaking a word and then blotted out that which he had written which made the company wonder at him Du Moul s aid vnto him you gaine time and vnder the colour of writing take leisure to thinke vpon some thing to saue your selfe Gont. Laying aside his writing entreated Du Moulin to set downe his proposition in writing Du Moul. Then at his entreatie writ these words Let any man shew me out of the word of God that the Bishops of the Romish Church haue authoritie to establish Sacrificers in the Church Gont. I will proue vnto you that the Apostles were Sacrificers Du Moul. This is not the thing in question neither doth it proue that which I demaund Gont. It is sufficient if I proue that the Apostles were Priests and did offer vp sacrifices Du Moul. Since you are at a stay and that I cannot draw any proofe from you of the power that Bishops haue to establish sacrificing Priests in the Church let vs see how you proue that the Apostles were sacrificers Hereupon Gontier tooke his pen and wrote that which followes Gont. This word to Sacrifice in his primary signification imports as much as to do an holy thing but the Apostles were ordained to do an holy thing therefore the Apostles were ordained to sacrifice Du Moul. We haue nothing to doe here with Etymologies but with the sence of this word to sacrifice as it is taken in the Church of Rome to wit to offer vp really vnto God the body of Iesus Christ in a propitiatorie sacrifice for the liuing and the dead To pray vnto God is to do an holy thing yet neuerthelesse euery one that praieth is not therefore a sacrificer in this sence whereupon it followes that the conclusion is nothing to the purpose since the word to sacrifice is taken therein in another sence then we take it Gont. I haue proued that which I was to proue Du Moul. I denie it this is nothing to the purpose you tie your selues to the word so to auoide the thing Gont. I haue done enough and you haue granted what I demanded Du Moul. I do not agree with you in that and doe call the company to witnesse if there be any one here which hath hitherto heard Master Doctour speake one word to proue that Bishops haue authoritie from God to establish Sacrificers in the Church or that the Apostles were Sacrificers to sacrifice Iesus Christ Gont. Whereat all holding their tongues Gontier answered and said that Iesus Christ had said vnto his Apostles Do this and thereby commanded them to sacrifice Du Moul. I denie that to do this signifies to sacrifice Gont. This word Do is referred to his body Du Moul. Suppose it were so yet to do his body is not to sacrifice it Gont. In the 26. of Saint Mathew it is said that the bloud of Christ is shed for the remission of sinnes now where the bloud of Christ is shed there is a sacrifice and all that is auaileable to the remission of sinnes is a sacrifice Du Moul. That I denie if it were so Baptisme should be a sacrifice seeing that that also is auailable for the remission of sinnes nor is it true that wheresoeuer any bloud is shed for the remission of sin there should of necessitie be a sacrifice except this bloud be offered to God for without this it is no sacrifice Also it is requisite that this shedding of bloud be made by death but in the Eucharist you cannot shew me either that this bloud is offered vnto God or that this shedding of bloud is made by death Gont. In the 26. of Mathew it is expressely said that the bloud of Christ is and withall hee went to write this argument the bloud shed which is ioined with death is a sacrifice but the bloud shed in the sacrament is ioined with death therefore it is a sacrifice Du Moul. You take that for granted which you are to proue to wit that the bloud which you say to haue been shed in the Sacrament hath beene offered vnto God Secondly I answere that you doe fallaciously adde this same word Ioine to that which I haue said that in the 26. of Mathew it is truly said of the shedding of bloud which by nature is ioined with death But I say that when the very bloud of Christ is really shed in the Sacrament yet it is neuerthelesse not shed by death Gont. By this answere you seeme to allow of my Maior Du Moul. You speake nothing neither haue you produced any thing yet to proue that Iesus Christ hath offered his bloud to God in the Eucharist Gont. I haue proued it sufficiently I need not proue it againe Du Moul. Proue this or confesse that you cannot Gont. Gontier hereupon tooke his pen and writ as followes The bloud shed for the remission of sinnes is contained in the institution of the Eucharist in the 26. Chap. 28. verse of Saint Mathew Du Moul. This doth not enforce at all that Iesus Christ did offer his bloud vnto God in the Eucharist Gont. Hereupon after some silence and complainte of the Ladies desiring vs to conferre about some other matter at last Gontier stood vp vpon his legges and framed an argument which he would not write but Du Moulin writ it as he told it him the argument was this The bloud of Iesus Christ which is shed for the remission of sinnes must of necessitie be offered vnto God but in the institution of the Eucharist contained in 26 Chapt. 28. verse of Saint Mathew the bloud is shed for the remission of sinnes therefore it must needes be offered vnto God Du Moul. I denie that the maior proposition is alwaies true for should the very bloud of Christ Iesus be shed in that same action of the Eucharist it would not follow that it were offered vnto God for a sacrifice for it might be offered or presented to the Communicants and not vnto God It is sufficient that he hath beene offered on the crosse As for the second proposition I acknowledge that the bloud of Iesus Christ was shed but vpon the crosse Saint Mathew saith truly that the bloud of the Lord is shed but hee meanes vpon the crosse as the Romish Bible witnesseth and the very Masse which turne it in the future effundetz that the bloud of the Lord shall be shed I aske of Mr. Doctour whether he will renounce his Bible and his Masse Gont. Gontier taking pen and inke to answere blotted out part of that which Du Moulin had writ Du Moulin complained thereof and shewed it to the
