contrarie both to the kinges maiesties statutes and iniunctions and also contrary vnto his maiesties proclaimation made the xxvii day of December in the first yeare of his moste gratious raigne Wherein the name of masse is plainly forbidden if y e same proclaimation be truly constured notwithstanding in y e booke of cōmon praier his maiestie somewhat yet beareth with the weake learning of the multitude which commonly calleth the Lords supper by the name of masse after their olde woont which thing me thinketh should giue no man occasion to sticke stiffely to euill custome In a statute made the fourth day of Nouember of the same first yeare of his maiesties raigne and in the xiiii Chapter the offering of the sacrament for the dead which is there called masses satisfactory to be done for them is plainly condemned as a vaine thing tending to the derogation of Christes death Also by his maiesties iniunctions chap. 28. the altar of the same sacrifice for the dead is taken away for so much as it is a monument of the superstition of the popish masse So that for anie thing I can perceaue they that so fayne would holde vp their altars against them that goe about to put them downe both by law and order meane none other thing but to maintain a monument of superstition and idolatrie in spight both of the kinges lawes and iniunctions To the ende I meane to allure the people the more to their monie sacrifice and to make them beleeue the better in the God that they doe make vppon their altar or altar-stone Without the which they I wote can make no God Ah where was this their God before the altar and altar-stone was made This may well be that God vnto whome they thinke to doe good seruice in breaking of wedlock and rayling against marriage but sure I am that this is not that God that made both heauen and earth and all thinges in them because the altar and the altar-stone be some thinges Albeit least perhappes they should thinke that I would onely answere them with scoffes though theyr shamelesse obstinacie deserueth none other I will rehearse a few wordes out of Gods booke to stoppe their mouthes withall And when they haue answered and truely confuted them I will forsake Gods booke and the christian faith as truely as I haue forsaken them and all their iugling castes In the 7. Chapter to the Hebrues it is written The Lord sware and will not repent Thou art a priest for euer after the order of Melchisedech And for that cause was Iesus a stablisher of a better testament These words doe proue that Iesus Christ our euerlasting Priest and mediatour hath stablished a better testament then the testament of the olde law The priestes in the olde law offered vp sacrifice first for their owne sinnes and then for the sinnes of the people But whereon did they offer their sacrifice verily Vpon an altar Iesus Christ vnto whome God the father sware Thou art a priest for euer c. Offered vp himselfe once by hys own bloud suffering death for our sinnes and with that his owne oblation hee hath made perfect for euer them that are sanctified This is the better testament that Iesus Christ hath stablished for vs not by often offering of himself by the hands of sinners for then must hee haue often suffered since the world began But as it is appoynted vnto all men that they should once die and then commeth the iudgement euen so was Christ once offered For as touching that he died he died once saith Paul to take away the sinnes of manie By these Scriptures wee may conclude that Iesus Christ offering himselfe by death vppon the crosse once for our redemption made a full perfite and sufficient sacrifice oblation and satisfaction for the sinnes of all them that beleue in him And that this oblation was done vppon the crosse and not vpon anie altar witnesse Math. 27. Marke 15 Luke 23. Iohn 19. and Peter in the second of his first Epistle saying Christ suffered for vs leauing vs an example that we should follow his steppes which did no sinne neither was there guile foūd in his mouth which when he was reuiled reuiled not againe when he suffered he threatned not but committeth the vengeance to him that iudgeth righteously Which his owne selfe bare our sinnes in his body on the tree that wee being deliuered from sinne should liue vnto righteousnesse Howbeit he onely saith Esay chap. 53. Hath taken on him our infirmities and borne our paines hee was wounded for our offences and smitten for our wickednesse for the chastisement of our peace was layd vpon him with his stripes wee are healed What is it to be healed with his stripes but that by his death and resurrection he hath obtained for vs righteousnesse euen forgiuenesse of our sinnes euen forgiuenesse of our sinnes according to the sayinges of the Apostle Peter that by him all that beleeue are iustified from all thinges And vnto him giue all the prophetes witnesse that thorow his name whosoeuer beleeueth in him shall receaue remission of sinnes This is the couenant that is betweene God vs now euen that we beleeue in his sonne Iesus Christ to haue remission of sinnes in his name thorowe hys death and resurrection This article hath the holy ghost so surely graued in our heartes and written in our minds that wee cannot but say We beleue the remission of sinnes Which also is surely grounded vppon Gods holy word that sayth This is the testament that I will make vnto them after those daies saith the Lord I will put my lawes in their hearts and in their mindes will I write them and their sinnes and iniquities will I remember no more And where remission of these things is there is no more offering for sin So long as the sacrifice and offering for sinnes tooke not away sinnes neither brought perfect remission of sins there remained in the Church of God altars and continuall sacrifice or oblation for sinnes But when Christ had once offered himselfe vppon the crosse by death and by that his one oblation once offered had obtained remissiō of sinnes and finished all things that was due for man to pay saying It is finished giuing vp the Ghost thorough the which eternall spirite hee gaue himselfe to God without spot in a sweet sauour Then was finished according to his owne saying a perfect sacrifice for sinne and all things due for the same And also all sacrifice and oblations for sinnes totally ended as it is aforesaid Where remission of sinnes and iniquities is there is no more offering for sinne if no offering for sinnes then no altar to offer vpon Therefore either let them prooue Gods word to be false that saith Where remission of c. the Holy ghost a liar that promised to write the same in
