and_o the_o discovery_n of_o transubstantiation_n one_o of_o the_o last_o heresy_n which_o babylon_n hatch_v now_o they_o which_o have_v be_v patron_n of_o it_o before_o shall_v do_v like_o the_o

of_o i_o 26_o for_o as_o often_o as_o you_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n you_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v 27_o wherefore_o whosoever_o shall_v eat_v

so_o let_v he_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o this_o cup_n here_o i_o be_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o second_o service_n as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o of_o that_o

say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n 28_o in_o matthew_n &_o in_o mark_v it_o be_v say_v 24_o this_o cup_n be_v my_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n this_o be_v the_o first_o mention_n which_o christ_n make_v of_o a_o testament_n as_o though_o now_o his_o promise_n deserve_v the_o name_n of_o a_o testament_n because_o the_o seal_n be_v set_v unto_o they_o which_o before_o this_o sacrament_n be_v not_o seal_v but_o like_o a_o bare_a writing_n without_o a_o signet_n this_o word_n testament_n do_v imply_v a_o promise_n and_o therefore_o teach_v we_o that_o the_o sacrament_n do_v confirm_v and_o strengthen_v and_o nourish_v our_o faith_n because_o it_o seal_v the_o promise_n which_o we_o shall_v believe_v here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o christ_n do_v not_o only_o speak_v of_o a_o testament_n but_o he_o call_v it_o a_o new_a testament_n which_o word_n never_o meet_v together_o before_o as_o though_o the_o law_n be_v for_o the_o old_a man_n to_o mortify_v he_o and_o the_o gospel_n for_o the_o new_a man_n to_o comfort_v he_o again_o or_o as_o if_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v so_o wash_v her_o face_n and_o change_v her_o apparel_n at_o christ_n come_n that_o one_o will_v not_o think_v it_o the_o same_o but_o a_o new_a testament_n because_o even_o now_o she_o be_v shadow_v with_o a_o thousand_o ceremony_n and_o now_o they_o be_v go_v from_o she_o like_o a_o mist_n at_o the_o sun_n rise_v as_o christ_n call_v love_n 34._o a_o new_a commandment_n because_o he_o renew_v it_o like_o a_o law_n wear_v out_o of_o memory_n so_o he_o call_v the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n a_o new_a testament_n because_o as_o it_o be_v renew_v to_o sem_fw-mi and_o after_o renew_v to_o abraham_n and_o after_o renew_v to_o david_n so_o now_o he_o renew_v it_o again_o which_o shall_v be_v always_o new_a and_o fresh_a unto_o us._n every_o testament_n be_v confirm_v with_o blood_n the_o old_a testament_n be_v confirm_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o goat_n and_o bullock_n and_o ram_n 18._o but_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v confirm_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n ●_o my_o blood_n say_v christ_n be_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n nay_o this_o cup_n say_v christ_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n 20._o you_o may_v see_v then_o that_o they_o may_v gather_v as_o well_o out_o of_o christ_n word_n that_o the_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n as_o that_o the_o wine_n be_v his_o blood_n for_o christ_n say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n as_o well_o as_o he_o say_v this_o wine_n be_v my_o blood_n or_o this_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n beside_o when_o christ_n speak_v of_o a_o new_a testament_n he_o impli_v that_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v fulfil_v the_o sacrifice_n 13._o and_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n do_v signify_v christ_n before_o he_o come_v therefore_o they_o be_v fulfil_v in_o his_o come_n no_o more_o sacrifice_n no_o mo_z figure_n ceremony_n for_o the_o truth_n be_v come_v sacrifice_n and_o ceremony_n be_v honourable_o bury_v with_o the_o priesthood_n of_o aaron_n let_v they_o rest_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o violate_v the_o sepulchre_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o take_v their_o body_n out_o of_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o witch_n will_v raise_v samuel_n out_o of_o his_o grave_n 14_o therefore_o they_o which_o retain_v ceremony_n which_o shall_v be_v abrogate_a relic_n of_o judaisme_n or_o relic_n of_o papisme_n may_v be_v say_v to_o violate_v the_o sepulchre_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o disturb_v the_o deceased_a like_o the_o witch_n which_o presume_v to_o raise_v samuel_n out_o of_o his_o grave_n this_o testament_n be_v call_v a_o testament_n in_o blood_n because_o the_o testament_n and_o will_n of_o a_o man_n be_v confirm_v when_o the_o man_n be_v dead_a so_o christ_n confirm_v his_o testament_n by_o his_o death_n moses_n say_v 11._o that_o life_n be_v in_o the_o blood_n so_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o life_n of_o this_o testament_n if_o christ_n blood_n have_v not_o be_v shed_v this_o testament_n make_v unto_o we_o have_v be_v unprofitable_a as_o the_o testament_n of_o a_o father_n be_v unto_o his_o son_n if_o the_o father_n shall_v not_o die_v but_o live_v therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v 22._o without_o shed_v of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n therefore_o the_o testament_n or_o covenaunt_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v call_v the_o testament_n in_o blood_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o testament_n which_o we_o have_v to_o show_v unto_o god_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o two_o sacrament_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o that_o blood_n to_o witness_v that_o it_o be_v shed_v again_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n regard_v in_o testament_n and_o will_n to_o the_o testament_n of_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a no_o man_n add_v or_o detract_v but_o as_o the_o testator_n make_v it_o so_o it_o stand_v without_o alteration_n so_o shall_v this_o testament_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n no_o man_n shall_v alter_v it_o now_o he_o be_v dead_a for_o he_o which_o add_v or_o detract_v 2._o have_v a_o curse_n in_o god_n book_n 18._o therefore_o christ_n when_o he_o institute_v this_o sacrament_n command_v do_v this_o that_o be_v do_v as_o i_o do_v lest_o they_o shall_v swerve_v one_o whit_n from_o his_o own_o manner_n yet_o how_o many_o gaud_n have_v the_o papist_n add_v to_o it_o that_o he_o which_o have_v hear_v christ_n say_v do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o and_o shall_v see_v how_o they_o handle_v the_o matter_n in_o their_o mass_n confute_v can_v see_v nothing_o to_o remember_v christ_n by_o but_o a_o veil_n to_o hide_v christ_n from_o he_o therefore_o this_o commandment_n be_v repeat_v again_o when_o he_o give_v the_o wine_n do_v this_o etc._n etc._n as_o he_o command_v they_o to_o eat_v the_o bread_n in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o so_o he_o command_v they_o to_o drink_v the_o wine_n in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o nay_o he_o speak_v more_o precise_o of_o the_o wine_n then_o of_o the_o bread_n for_o he_o say_v of_o the_o wine_n 27_o drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o which_o he_o say_v not_o of_o the_o bread_n sure_o christ_n do_v foresee_v that_o some_o proud_a heretic_n will_v do_v otherwise_o after_o he_o even_o as_o it_o be_v come_v to_o pass_v for_o the_o papist_n do_v break_v this_o commandment_n of_o christ_n as_o flat_o as_o saul_n break_v the_o commandment_n of_o samuel_n samuel_n command_v he_o to_o kill_v the_o fat_a and_o the_o lean_a 9_o saul_n kill_v the_o lean_a but_o not_o the_o fat_a so_o christ_n command_v to_o receive_v bread_n and_o wine_n they_o teach_v to_o receive_v bread_n but_o not_o wine_n christ_n say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o they_o say_v drink_v not_o all_o of_o this_o christ_n give_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o all_o they_o give_v the_o bread_n to_o all_o and_o the_o wine_n to_o some_o their_o priest_n receive_v all_o but_o the_o people_n must_v content_v themselves_o with_o half_a the_o priest_n eat_v and_o drink_v but_o the_o people_n must_v not_o drink_v for_o spill_v on_o their_o clothes_n be_v
they_o which_o break_v the_o law_n of_o man_n but_o to_o suffer_v and_o suffer_v and_o ever_o to_o suffer_v all_o that_o the_o devil_n will_v heap_v upon_o us._n then_o come_v the_o mercy_n of_o god_n for_o christ_n which_o shed_v his_o blood_n like_o a_o umpire_n between_o god_n and_o we_o and_o say_v as_o esay_n say_v to_o hezechia_n word_n thou_o shall_v not_o die_v but_o live_v lose_v he_o let_v he_o go_v for_o he_o be_v i_o so_o we_o be_v stay_v like_o the_o widow_n son_n when_o he_o be_v carry_v to_o his_o grave_n this_o be_v the_o benefit_n of_o christ_n death_n 5._o and_o this_o sacrament_n be_v the_o remembrance_n of_o it_o 15._o and_o therefore_o whensoever_o we_o receive_v it_o this_o addition_n come_v with_o it_o which_o be_v shed_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n 28_o our_o fault_n be_v so_o heinous_a and_o grievous_a that_o no_o ransom_n can_v countervail_v it_o unless_o god_n himself_o have_v suffer_v for_o us._n be_v in_o this_o extremity_n neither_o man_n nor_o

faith_n i_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n not_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o sin_n but_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n mark_v this_o distinction_n against_o popish_a merit_n of_o work_n or_o penance_n christ_n have_v satisfy_v and_o not_o we_o we_o be_v remit_v and_o not_o christ_n therefore_o we_o say_v in_o our_o confession_n article_n i_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n which_o i_o may_v call_v the_o merciful_a article_n because_o it_o be_v the_o quintessence_n and_o sweetness_n of_o all_o the_o twelve_o therefore_o who_o but_o antichrist_n dare_v deprave_v it_o if_o there_o be_v a_o satisfaction_n for_o our_o sin_n by_o our_o work_n or_o by_o our_o pilgrimage_n or_o by_o our_o mass_n or_o by_o our_o penance_n let_v christ_n never_o be_v call_v a_o forgiver_n but_o a_o

with_o the_o lord_n and_o give_v he_o so_o many_o pilgrimage_n fast_o so_o many_o day_n hear_v so_o many_o mass_n and_o pay_v so_o many_o work_n for_o it_o until_o they_o have_v do_v as_o much_o good_a as_o they_o have_v do_v evil_a our_o sin_n be_v infinite_a and_o god_n be_v infinite_a but_o our_o work_n be_v finite_a in_o number_n and_o measure_n how_o can_v they_o answer_v then_o to_o that_o which_o exceed_v number_n and_o measure_v therefore_o be_v content_a with_o joseph_n brethren_n to_o take_v your_o money_n again_o 25._o and_o say_v that_o you_o have_v corn_n for_o nothing_o that_o be_v you_o be_v save_v for_o nothing_o or_o else_o when_o you_o say_v i_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n you_o lie_v unto_o god_n because_o you_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o satisfaction_n for_o sin_n like_o the_o papist_n it_o follow_v 26._o as_o often_o as_o you_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n verse_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n you_o shall_v show_v the_o

you_o show_v my_o death_n be_v much_o at_o one_o so_o that_o if_o you_o call_v this_o sacrament_n a_o show_n of_o christ_n death_n as_o it_o be_v call_v here_o than_o it_o be_v not_o christ_n or_o if_o you_o call_v it_o a_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v call_v there_o yet_o it_o be_v not_o christ_n but_o a_o show_n or_o remembrance_n of_o christ_n but_o this_o be_v such_o a_o

for_o deliver_v he_o 1●_n and_o the_o jew_n for_o crucify_a he_o 25_o so_o they_o be_v guilty_a which_o receive_v this_o sacrament_n unworthy_o as_o pilate_n and_o caiphas_n and_o judas_n be_v if_o

time_n be_v set_v and_o his_o bound_n appoint_v which_o he_o can_v pass_v no_o more_o than_o the_o egyptian_n can_v pass_v the_o sea_n and_o therefore_o moses_n say_v teach_v we_o to_o number_v our_o

ever_o for_o a_o man_n to_o number_v his_o day_n they_o be_v so_o few_o four_o the_o aptness_n of_o man_n to_o forget_v death_n rather_o than_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o therefore_o moses_n pray_v the_o lord_n to_o teach_v he_o to_o number_v his_o day_n as_o though_o they_o be_v still_o drip_v out_o of_o his_o mind_n last_o that_o to_o remember_v how_o short_a a_o time_n we_o
his_o son_n shall_v come_v into_o the_o world_n 26._o &_o he_o come_v at_o the_o same_o time_n 4._o as_o the_o prophet_n and_o the_o evangelist_n accord_n so_o he_o have_v appoint_v a_o time_n when_o all_o his_o blessing_n shall_v come_v unto_o we_o &_o they_o come_v at_o the_o same_o time_n as_o we_o read_v of_o joseph_n when_o his_o appoint_a time_n come_v show_v that_o god_n appoint_v a_o time_n when_o to_o exalt_v he_o 19_o and_o before_o that_o time_n come_v he_o can_v not_o be_v exalt_v therefore_o christ_n say_v so_o often_o 8._o my_o time_n be_v not_o yet_o come_v show_v that_o

that_o which_o be_v object_v of_o ezechias_n because_o esaie_n show_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v die_v and_o after_o tell_v he_o that_o fifteen_o year_n be_v add_v to_o his_o life_n it_o be_v like_o the_o preach_n of_o jonas_n to_o the_o ninivit_n 3_o forty_o day_n and_o ninive_n shall_v be_v destroy_v and_o yet_o niniveh_n be_v not_o destroy_v because_o they_o repent_v so_o ezechias_n be_v not_o abridge_v because_o he_o repent_v therefore_o you_o must_v understand_v the_o phrase_n of_o god_n as_o when_o we_o say_v that_o we_o will_v journey_n to_o morrow_n we_o understand_v if_o god_n will_v so_o when_o god_n say_v i_o will_v destroy_v he_o understand_v if_o we_o persist_v as_o all_o the_o promise_n of_o god_n be_v conditional_a to_o take_v place_n if_o we_o repent_v so_o all_o the_o

you_o may_v as_o well_o say_v i_o will_v take_v no_o meat_n god_n have_v not_o ordain_v the_o end_n without_o mean_n but_o the_o mean_n as_o well_o as_o the_o end_n if_o he_o have_v appoint_v one_o to_o die_v in_o his_o youth_n he_o have_v appoint_v some_o mean_n to_o shorten_v his_o life_n 6._o as_o he_o do_v absalon_n if_o he_o have_v appoint_v one_o to_o live_v long_o he_o have_v appoint_v also_o some_o mean_n to_o preserve_v his_o life_n as_o joseph_n cherish_v jacob_n in_o his_o age_n therefore_o though_o god_n have_v promise_v paul_n that_o his_o company_n shall_v not_o be_v drown_v

they_o can_v abide_v it_o therefore_o as_o pharaoh_n bid_v moses_n go_v out_o of_o his_o sight_n so_o they_o bid_v death_n go_v out_o of_o their_o sight_n and_o say_v when_o he_o come_v as_o achab_n

like_o a_o jailer_n which_o come_v always_o to_o hale_v unto_o prison_n therefore_o their_o care_n be_v not_o to_o remember_v death_n that_o they_o may_v apply_v their_o heart_n to_o wisdom_n but_o to_o forget_v death_n lest_o they_o shall_v apply_v their_o heart_n to_o wisdom_n and_o loose_v their_o pleasure_n before_o the_o time_n for_o he_o which_o be_v not_o purpose_v yet_o to_o leave_v
