the ground Let them proue to vs by Gods owne voice as here that their Images are holy and that Gods presence is in them And yet for all that will not this procure adoration to them no more then Moses adored the earth Fourthly this place if Images were holy should rather keep vs from them then make vs come to them For it is said Approach not or come not hither loose off thy shooes from thy feet for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground It s therefore rather against going to Images then to goe to worship them Ador●●●e the footstoole of his feet Vnderstood say they of the Arke 1. Chron. 28. 2. Which was worshipped of the Iewes in regard of the Images set vpon it Answ Vnderstanding this footstoole of the Arke as they say it will helpe nothing their worship of Images For first the Arke was of Gods own appointment to be made for manner matter and end Exod. 25. 9. but so bee not their Images Secondly the Arke is called his footstoole But Images are not so called neither claimeth he them for his Thirdly God promised his presence with the Arke Exod. 25. 22. But where is his promise to be with their Images Fourthly the Arke was not an Image What is this then to an Image Fiftly the Arke was in the most holy place into which none could enter but the High Priests Therefore the people could not adore it but a farre off as being in the out-Court without any sight thereof Now their Images are neere and in the peoples view and not only where the High Priest of Rome comes If they will haue Images as the Arke then let his High Priestship keepe them in his most holy Chappell for himselfe and let them be for him only as the most Holy was for the high Priest Sixtly by the Arkes being in so remote a place its cleere that the words must be translated Adore yee towards his footstoele as in 1. King 8. 44. Pray towards the holy Citie and the house which hee had chosen And then the Arke was not adored but God it being the signe of Gods presence before which they worshipped 1. Sam. 1. 19. Seuenthly if it was worshipped because of the Images vpon it then was it only worshipped in the Sanctum Sanctorum For there the Cherubims were spred ouer it and not elsewhere and then onely the High Priest adored it for he onely saw the Images ouer it And then this Text seemeth to speake not to all but to him What is this to the peoples worshipping of Images Eighthly and lastly it is vntrue to say the Iewes worshipped it because of the Images on it For first they neither did nor could euer see any Image vpon it Secondly wee reade of the Arke brought forth in their iourneyings in the wildernesse so in going ouer Iordan also into the Campe of Israel 1. Sam. 4. 5. and at other times but wee neuer read of any that did worship it But if this had beene a commandement here surely there would haue beene some example of adoring it Thirdly they were commanded to worship God Deut. 6. 13. 10. 20. but no where to worship any other thing Fourthly how could it be that they worshipped the Arke because of the Images vpon it when the angels which by the Images were represented were not adored of them Would they worship the Image and not the things themselues For as Origen saith No Contr. Cels lib. 5. man adored the heauenly Angels which did submit himselfe to the Law of Moses Phil. 2. 10. At the name of Iesus c. Answ 1. Here is no Image mentioned What is this to Saints worship and their Images For this Text speakes of Iesus our Lord Sauiour Christ because we must bow downe to him the Sonne of God one person God and Man when wee doe make mention of his name Will it follow therefore that we should doe so to dead Images XXIII Proposition That the Lords Supper is to be administred to the people in one kinde onely Confuted by their owne Bible 1. IT teacheth vs that Christ instituting this his last Supper administred it in both kinds giuing a commandement to take and eate and also to drinke Mat. 26. 26 27. Luk. 20. 20. Secondly the Apostle Saint Paul repeating the institution mentioneth both the Bread and the Chalice 1. Cor. 11. 24 25. And first he tels them that this hee receiued of the Lord. Secondly that he deliuered the same vnto them verse 23. Thirdly he in verse 28. plainely prescribeth the eating of the Bread and drinking of the Chalice and that to euery one that commeth prepared and proueth himselfe saying Let him eate of that bread and drinke of that Chalice Out of which place it is euident that the drinking of the Chalice is of equall extent with the duty of prouing our selues before wee come vnto this Sacrament But the duty is generall and belongeth vnto all indifferently The drinking of the Chalice therefore may not be denied vnto any Thirdly the Church then in his dayes did receiue it in both kindes 1. Cor. 11. 26. For it is said there So often as you shall eate this bread and drinke this Chalice you shall shew the death of our Lord vntill hee come By both they shew his death And this place shews clearely that so often as they receiued they did eate the Bread and drinke the Chalice Fourthly the Apostles and Ministers of Christ did administer in both For the Apostle saith 1. Cor. 10. 16. The Chalice of benediction which we doe blesse is it not the communication of the bloud of Christ and the bread which wee breake is it not the participation of the body of the Lord Here the Apostle first mentioneth both the Chalice and Bread Secondly by the word we he vnderstands himselfe and other which did blesse the Chalice and breake the Bread Thirdly he saith that by the Chalice we communicate of Christs bloud and by the bread wee participate of his bodie and not by one of them of them both Saint Paul would haue Christs bloud out of his bodie in the Against concomitancy See D. White his last booke pag. 460 466. Chalice represented and not by the bread onely both his body and bloud Fourthly Christ is perfect food wee must therefore eate him and drinke him Drinke alone preserues not life nor onely to eate but both to eate and drinke therefore Christ instituted both to be receiued If the Aduersaries say that this receiuing was of the Apostles and as they by consequent would See an answer to this there also pag. 488 489 492. inferre of Priests onely which may receiue in both kindes but not the Laitie I answer first that the Apostles receiuing the Sacrament from Christ were then and there for the whole Church They receiued alone because they were Christs family to receiue together the Passeouer Secondly the Apostles were not as yet fully ordained till Christ breathed on them after

Spirit First by the Spirit For the Spirit himselfe giueth testimonie to our spirit that wee are the sonnes of God Rom. 8. 16. This Spirit of God wee receiue that wee may know the things that of God are giuen to vs 1. Cor. 2. 12. Hence it is that Iohn saith In this we know that we abide in him and he in vs because hee of his Spirit hath giuen to vs 1. Ioh. 4. 13. and 3. 24. What can be more certaine then knowledge and that knowledge which is of Gods Spirit whose testimony is most infallible for it is the testimonie of God himselfe and the Spirit of truth Ioh. 14. 17. 1. Ioh. 5 6. It is also Gods pledge to vs 2. Cor. 5. 5. and 1. 22. Ephes 1. 14. and his Signet with which we are signed vnto the Day of Redemption Ephes 1. 13. and 4. 30. Now Gods Spirit being truth being Gods owne witnesse being his owne pledge in euery true beleeuers heart and his owne signet and seale is hee not certaine and sure of his saluation Will any man question the truth of an earthly Kings word his hand and seale so affirming any thing to be as hee saith How much lesse the Word hand and Seale of the King of Heauen bearing witnesse to euery true beleeuer that hee is the child of God yea and making him to speake to God as to a Father so to call him by the name of Father Rom. 8. 15. Gal. 4. 6. then which what greater assurance of saluation can there be Secondly by faith which maketh the party which hath it to know that he hath it 1. Cor. 13. 5. and that which it beleeueth to be certaine to the beleeuer so as he can say We know that hee will raise vs vp 2. Cor. 4. 14. We know that wee haue eternall life 1. Ioh. 5. 13. and we know that we haue a building of God eternall in Heauen 2. Cor. 5. 1. Therefore the Apostle saith We are bold alwayes verse 6. So as the Apostle Iames exhorteth not to wauer or to doubt Iam. 1. 6. So S. Paul 1. Tim. 2. 8. For saith is the substance of things to be hoped for and the argument of things not appearing Heb. 11. 1. Which could not be vnlesse there were certainty in it yea so certaine faith maketh things to be to beleeuers that the Apostle saith Wee walke by saith and not by sight hauing before spoken of constant boldnesse and also by and by after touching their assurance of future happinesse 2. Cor. 5. 6 7 8. Moreouer this grace of faith giueth a particular assurance to him that hath it and applyeth that to himselfe which hee beleeueth Therefore beleeuing in Christ and receiuing him are made both one Ioh. 1. 12. Now he that receiueth a thing from another for himselfe is to lay hold on it and so to take it to himselfe So beleeuing is a laying hold and applying Christ and his benefits and all promises of saluation made in Christ to a mans selfe in particular Whereupon it is that the Apostle speaking of faith exhorteth to apprehend eternall life 1. Tim. 6. 12. Also the more fully to expresse this particular assurance and application in Ioh. 6. to eate and to drinke Christ is made the same with beleeuing in him To beleeue in Christ saith Saint Austen is to In Ioan. tract 25. 26. eate the bread of Life He that beleeueth eateth Beleeue and thou eatest Now can any thing be more assured and more neerely applyed to a man that it is his infallibly then that which he hath eaten And if to beleeue in Christ be the eating of him and the eating assureth him that eateth him to liue for euer Ioh. 6. 51 58. then faith doth assure him that beleeueth in Christ that he hath Christ and all the benefits of his death and Passion for his eternall saluation as he that hath eaten bread hath the benefit of it to the sustentation of corporall life Of this liuely and certaine application of faith the Fathers speake Austin saith that saith sent vp layeth hold on Christ Chrysostome Tract 50. on Iohn On Marke hom 10. On Luk l. 6. c. 8. Li. de resur Cor. saith Let vs beleeue and we see Iesus present before vs. Ambrose saith That by faith Christ is touched and is seene Tertullian saith That by faith Christ is digested Now if Christ by faith be laid hold on seene present touched and as food digested it doth according to the measure thereof effectually apply him and giueth particular assurance of Saluation which is obtained by Christ though we haue neither miracle nor extraordinarie reuelation to tell vs that we are saued Furthermore faith is that which receiueth the promise Gal. 3. 14. It goeth out of a mans selfe to fetch all that it beleeueth concerning saluation from God most fully knowing that whatsoeuer God promiseth he is able to performe it Rom. 4. 21. Hence is it that by faith which applyeth the promise and beleeueth that God is true of his word and able also to make it good aboue all that we desire or vnderstand Ephes 3. 20. we are ascertained of that which we beleeue neither doth our faith stagger but maketh vs most assured while it is fixed on God on his Word on his will made knowne by his Word and promise on the truth of that also which he once hath spoken on his almightie power to make it good accordingly But God hath promised to euery true beleeuer forgiuenesse of sinnes Act. 10. 43. and euerlasting life Ioh. 3. 15. Thus hauing spoken his will and good pleasure is hereby knowne this word will hee keepe and his power will make it good All which true faith applyeth to him that hath it as spoken to him for in this faith excelleth all other graces and so maketh him certaine of forgiuenesse of sinnes and of euerlasting life which we in our Creed professe to beleeue not onely that there is remission of sinnes the resurrection of the body and the life euerlasting but euery true beleeuer by faith saith that his sinnes are remitted his body shall rise againe as Iob was perswaded and that hee shall haue life euerlasting For to beleeue them to be and not to apply them is not a iustifying faith but such a faith as is in reprobates euen the faith of deuils Lastly this sauing faith bringeth forth such fruits as wil proclaime to all that faith is a grace of certainty It maketh a beleeuer that he shall not be confounded Rom. 10. 11 to haue affiance and accesse with confidence Ephes 3. 12. Now where there is assiance and confidence there is much certainty in that grace which worketh these It worketh also hope now hope maketh vs glory and confoundeth not Rom. 5. 2 5. and is the anchor of the soule sure and firme Heb. 6. 19. yea hope is said to haue glory and confidence Heb. 3. 6. If hope then bee so certaine sure and firme as that we are thereby confident
