love and a reverent Esteem of the Holy Sacrament called in holy Scripture the Supper of the Lord and hath solemnly as becometh a Christian Taken the said holy Ordinance divers times within the time mentioned in the a●oresaid Presentment and divers times since the aforesaid Admonition and that in both kinds of Bread and Wine and in such manner and to such ends as is expressed in the Statute of 1 Edw. VI. chap. 1. in these words Paragraph 1. Which Sacrament was instituted of no less Author then of our Saviour both God and Man when at his last Supper amongst his Apostles he did take the Bread into his holy hands and did say Take Eat this is my Body which is given and Broken for you and taking up the Chalice or Cup did give thanks and say This is my Blood of the New Testament which is shed for you and for many for the Remission of Sins that whensoever we should do the same we should do it in Remembrance of him and to declare and set forth his Death and glorious Passion until his Coming of the which bread whosoever Eateth or of the which cup whosoever drinketh unworthily Eateth and Drinketh Condemnation and Iudgment to himself And in Paragraph 7. there are these words Therefore be it Enacted by our Sovereign Lord the King with the consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal and the Commons in this present Parliament assembled and by Authority of the same that the said most Blessed Sacrament be hereafter commonly delivered and administred unto the people within this Church of England and Ireland and other the Kings Dominions under both the kinds that is to say of Bread and Wine except necessity otherwise require and also that the Priest which shall minister the same shall at the least one day before Exhort all persons which shall be present to resort and Prepare themselves to Receive the same and when the prefixed day cometh after a Godly Exhortation by the Minister made wherein shall be further expressed the benefit and comfort promised to them which worthily receive the holy Sacrament and danger and indignation of Almighty God threatened to them which shall presume to receive the same unworthily to the end that every man may try and examine his own conscience before he shall receive the same The said Minister shall not without a lawful cause deny the same to any person that will devoutly and humbly desire it any Law Statute Ordinance or Custome contrary thereunto in any wise notwithstanding not condemning hereby the usage of any Church out of the Kings Majesties Dominions But it is supposed that Doctor Pinfold will say That the said Jones hath not taken the said Sacrament in his own Parish Church according to the Admonition at the time therein prefixed by the said Doctor unto which the said Jones doth soberly reply That he doth not know of any Statute Law that impowereth the Doctor thus to proceed or that bindeth the said Jones to obey and is much more sure that there is no Law of Jesus Christ in all the New Testament for such proceedings however the said Jones saith That he hath taken the holy Communion in such a Church as is declared and owned in the Nineteenth Article of the Church of England viz. That the Visible Church of Christ is a company of faithful men in which the pure Word of God is Preached and the Sacraments be duly Administred according to Christs Ordinance in all things that of necessity are requisite to the same And the said Jones saith That himself and a vast number of His Majesties Protestant subjects do exercise a Godly care and maketh great Conscience to Wait upon God in no other Assemblies then is expressed in the aforsaid Article viz. A company of faithful people that have the pure Word of God truly preached and the Ordinances of God duly administred But it may be the Doctor will say That Jones meaneth the assemblies of Disenters To which Jones doth reply That he honestly meaneth no other Assemblies but such where Christ is preached as he is declared in the holy Gospel 1. As God and Man 2. As being Conceived in the Virgins womb by the Holy Ghost and so brought forth into the world to be the Saviour of Sinners 3. His Death as the Satisfaction of Divine Justice 4. His Resurrection for the Justification of all True Beleivers 5. His Ascension into heaven and making Intercession at the right hand of God that so the Godly may be accepted of God and be received into heaven 6. The Second Coming of Christ to Judge the quick and the dead at which time of Judgement he will receive the Righteous into Eternal happiness and send the wicked into Eternal misery after the resurrection of the just and unjust And as touching the holy Sacraments the aforesaid Assemblies doth profess and practice water Baptism as Gods holy Ordinance and the Lords Supper in both kinds of Bread and Wine as a holy Remembrance of Christs Death till he come again as it is expressed in the Holy Scripture and in the before mentioned Statute of 1 Edw. 6. chap. 1. which Statute doth not compel any of the Kings subjects to come to that blessed Ordinance to the damage of their own Souls but strictly warneth to the contrary and requireth persons to come humbly and devoutly of their owne desire Now therefore why the said Jone●s or any other of the Kings Protestant subjects should be prosecuted to the suffering Imprisonment for not taking the Sacramnt in their respective Parish Churches who are zealous for the holy Sacrament other parts of the Protestant Religion in such assemblies as are for higher degrees of Reformation than is among the common Protestants it is humbly presented to Doctor Pinfold and all others called Doctors and Judges in Courts called Spiritual whether they can produce any such Authority from Jesus Christ who is the Spiritual Governour in his Church and hath given Spiritual Laws for the government thereof The said Jones saith he hath carefully read the Holy Scriptures for many years and could never find that ever Christ did set up such a way of Government in his Church viz. of Fines Imprisonments Banishment or any other corporal punishment to bring persons to conform unto his Gospel Ordinances but Christs way was to aford plain and powerful preaching of his Word to inlighten the mind and perswade the Soul to make a free choice of his Ttruths from a cordial love to himself but according to the proceedings of Doctor Pinfold and other Ecclesiastical Judges such as are conscientiously afraid they shall miss the comforts and blessed benefits of the Sacrament by coming to it at such times and places with such Communicants as imposed by the said Doctor must be contented with the discomforts of a Jail or else pay great sums of mony to get off And whereas the ●aid Doctor did declare in the publick Assembly of Doctors Commons that he fixed the taking of the
