body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o altar_n be_v a_o true_a and_o a_o acceptable_a sacrifice_n unto_o god_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v offer_v in_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o bless_a office_n of_o the_o mass_n incessant_o for_o the_o quick_a &_o the_o dead_a until_o the_o come_n of_o chryst_n the_o answer_n sigh_v we_o have_v sufficient_o more_o before_o prove_v that_o the_o true_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o in_o the_o sacrament_n corporal_o it_o follow_v of_o necessity_n that_o the_o same_o can_v not_o be_v offer_v up_o in_o the_o mass_n by_o the_o priest_n but_o yet_o the_o romish_a church_n teach_v that_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v corporal_o and_o substantial_o present_a and_o in_o the_o office_n of_o their_o mass_n offer_v up_o to_o god_n by_o the_o priest_n for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o therefore_o ought_v to_o be_v worship_v but_o the_o form_n of_o the_o mass_n do_v not_o agree_v with_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n but_o be_v increase_v by_o the_o long_a continuance_n of_o time_n with_o diverse_a addition_n right_n &_o ceremony_n so_o as_o gregorius_n the_o seven_o pope_n do_v confess_v that_o in_o his_o time_n the_o mass_n be_v not_o celebrate_v in_o all_o place_n of_o the_o world_n after_o one_o manner_n wherefore_o without_o all_o doubt_n the_o apostle_n peter_n james_n and_o mathewe_n do_v never_o celebrate_v the_o mass_n use_v in_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n but_o be_v altogether_o ignorant_a thereof_o therefore_o the_o church_n of_o the_o gospel_n have_v by_o good_a right_n put_v away_o and_o abolish_v the_o romish_a mass_n and_o in_o the_o stead_n thereof_o have_v right_o and_o godly_a ordain_v the_o supper_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v godly_a celebrate_v in_o the_o old_a apostolical_a church_n without_o any_o of_o the_o pope_n or_o man_n tradition_n or_o addition_n and_o therefore_o to_o the_o foresay_a question_n we_o answer_v that_o we_o do_v not_o acknowledge_v nor_o receive_v the_o mass_n for_o the_o institution_n of_o god_n but_o flee_v from_o it_o as_o be_v contrary_a to_o our_o profession_n partly_o for_o cause_n already_o show_v and_o partly_o for_o such_o cause_n as_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v show_v but_o that_o we_o may_v the_o better_o know_v christian_n what_o sacrifice_n be_v we_o will_v here_o unto_o add_v a_o few_o word_n there_o be_v amongst_o the_o christian_n chief_o two_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n the_o one_o propitiatory_a for_o the_o reconciliation_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o the_o other_o of_o thank_n give_v in_o which_o we_o exercise_v our_o faith_n serve_v god_n &_o geve_v he_o thanks_n both_o with_o word_n and_o deed_n for_o his_o benefit_n bestow_v upon_o we_o in_o the_o old_a testament_n the_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a be_v shadow_v and_o figure_v by_o many_o figure_n yet_o be_v there_o but_o one_o thing_n which_o they_o all_o do_v signify_v to_o wit_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n offer_v on_o the_o cross_n wherefore_o after_o that_o christ_n come_v into_o the_o world_n and_o remain_v here_o a_o certain_a time_n that_o he_o may_v offer_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n on_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n he_o ordain_v ●n_z his_o supper_n the_o

from_o hence_o forth_o on●●_n to_o be_v in_o stead_n of_o all_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n which_o be_v figure_n and_o to_o witness_v that_o as_o christ_n by_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v promise_v a_o saviour_n so_o in_o the_o ●ewe_a testament_n he_o be_v come_v and_o have_v perform_v it_o and_o so_o by_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n have_v take_v away_o for_o ever_o all_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a wherefore_o when_o our_o lord_n will_v of●●r_v sin_n himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n and_o that_o 〈…〉_o hour_n be_v

be_v obtain_v unto_o everlasting_a life_n and_o therefore_o so_o soon_o as_o our_o lord_n be_v dead_a and_o have_v in_o this_o sort_n offer_v up_o himself_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n his_o heavenly_a father_n the_o veil_n of_o the_o temple_n rend_v in_o two_o piece_n great_a miracle_n be_v see_v both_o in_o the_o live_n and_o in_o the_o dead_a yea_o in_o heaven_n and_o in_o earth_n and_o thus_o do_v the_o old_a testament_n the_o levitical_a priesthood_n and_o all_o the_o other_o sacrifice_n take_v their_o end_n whereunto_o they_o be_v ordain_v therefore_o now_o rest_v but_o the_o one_o only_a and_o everlasting_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o chief_a holy_a and_o most_o perfect_v and_o such_o be_v the_o property_n of_o this_o sacrifice_n that_o it_o neither_o can_v nor_o yet_o can_v be_v offer_v of_o any_o live_a man_n because_o not_o only_o for_o the_o excellency_n and_o holiness_n thereof_o but_o also_o because_o of_o the_o imperfection_n of_o man_n and_o therefore_o christ_n offer_v up_o himself_o that_o be_v to_o say_v give_v himself_o unto_o death_n and_o so_o become_v the_o one_o and_o everlasting_a bishop_n after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n as_o only_a bishop_n and_o sacrifice_n offer_v to_o god_n by_o himself_o only_o yea_o this_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o offer_v be_v but_o one_o that_o be_v to_o say_v once_o offer_v neither_o can_v it_o any_o more_o be_v offer_v again_o for_o that_o his_o one_o sacrifice_n be_v his_o death_n once_o make_v effectual_a that_o it_o only_o and_o for_o ever_o may_v be_v sufficient_a for_o all_o age_n for_o the_o reconciliation_n and_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o because_o christ_n have_v suffer_v for_o we_o die_v be_v bury_v and_o arise_v again_o from_o the_o dead_a and_o ascend_v into_o heaven_n appear_v for_o ever_o even_o unto_o the_o last_o day_n as_o one_o sufficient_a sacrifice_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n for_o the_o full_a and_o perfect_v redemption_n of_o all_o the_o faithful_a that_o be_v sufficient_a neither_o need_v there_o any_o other_o sacrifice_n to_o be_v offer_v in_o the_o church_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n wherefore_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o will_v offer_v a_o sacrifice_n for_o his_o sin_n he_o do_v manifest_o hereby_o declare_v that_o he_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o his_o sin_n be_v forgive_v he_o by_o the_o only_a sacrifice_n of_o christ_n for_o if_o he_o steadfast_o believe_v that_o they_o be_v wash_v away_o why_o then_o do_v he_o
believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n the_o resurrection_n of_o the_o body_n and_o life_n everlasting_a second_o it_o be_v call_v the_o communion_n or_o fellowship_n of_o saint_n saint_n that_o be_v

as_o i_o say_v before_o they_o be_v sanctify_v by_o christ_n in_o his_o blood_n through_o the_o holy_a ghost_n but_o because_o the_o church_n be_v a_o congregation_n or_o company_n peradventure_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v in_o our_o mother_n tongue_n kuch_n by_o this_o letter_n l_o and_o not_o as_o some_o other_o german_n do_v sound_v it_o by_o the_o letter_n r._n for_o in_o the_o hebrew_n

when_o they_o confess_v that_o god_n govern_v his_o church_n by_o his_o holy_a spirit_n forthwith_o the_o popish_a bishop_n conclude_v thereof_o that_o the_o church_n neither_o have_v nor_o can_v

they_o brag_v to_o be_v the_o true_a primative_a apostolic_a church_n as_o hereafter_o we_o shall_v prove_v second_o we_o d●●_n not_o confess_v that_o the_o err_v church_n can_v not_o altogether_o or_o in_o all_o point_n err_v for_o so_o long_o as_o she_o be_v govern_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o only_o harken_v unto_o he_o do_v nothing_o but_o by_o his_o motion_n and_o word_n she_o neither_o do_v nor_o can_v err_v but_o if_o she_o swerve_v at_o any_o time_n from_o the_o government_n of_o the_o same_o spirit_n and_o govern_v after_o her_o own_o lust_n then_o true_o she_o not_o only_o may_v but_o also_o do_v err_v but_o if_o any_o will_v ask_v whether_o the_o church_n may_v swerve_v from_o the_o direction_n of_o god_n spirit_n i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v evident_a and_o may_v in_o no_o wise_n be_v deny_v that_o the_o church_n of_o god_n here_o upon_o this_o earth_n often_o time_n under_o moses_n the_o judge_n and_o the_o king_n of_o israel_n and_o juda_n have_v err_v yea_o and_o that_o the_o disciple_n of_o chryst_n who_o yet_o nevertheless_o be_v the_o church_n of_o christ_n do_v err_v and_o have_v their_o fall_n for_o who_o be_v ignorant_a what_o happen_v to_o

although_o it_o be_v inspire_v and_o govern_v by_o the_o spirit_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o thereby_o turn_v into_o the_o spirit_n for_o it_o keep_v still_o her_o flesh_n and_o the_o infirmity_n thereof_o yea_o even_o unto_o death_n who_o be_v ignorant_a of_o those_o write_n which_o saint_n paul_n have_v general_o utter_v touch_v the_o battle_n between_o the_o flesh_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o that_o not_o in_o the_o ungodly_a and_o unbeléever_v only_o which_o be_v not_o of_o the_o church_n but_o even_o in_o the_o faithful_a also_o and_o member_n of_o the_o church_n and_o this_o battle_n be_v so_o
