ascended but that we are to seeke his body here on earth and to touch him with our mouthes and téeth But saint b Lib. 10. in c. 24. Luc. Ambrose saith That we touch not Christ with corporall handling but by faith and are not to seeke him on the earth nor after the flesh if we will find him c De resur carn Tertullian saith That his body is in the pallace of heauen The papistes also beléeue that there is one Christ in heauen visible and palpable and another in the sacrament inuisible and vnpalpable They d Concil Trid. s●ss teach that we are iustified by the workes of the law and that faith is nothing but a preparation to iustification They teach men to doubt and distrust of their saluation and after iustification send them to be tormented in purgatory they cannot tell how long but diuers thousandes of yéeres if their indulgences and bulles concerning the same conteine truth They beléeue that there be certaine veniall sins whose wages and reward is not death and that eternall life is no frée gift but the wages of mens good workes and merites The institution of Christ both in baptisme and in the Lordes supper they haue violated adding many other thinges beside water in baptisme and turning the communion in the Lordes supper into a priuate action and taking the cup from all the communicantes saue the priest that saith masse In the worship of God they haue deuised infinite matters which God neuer required at their handes Nay something they haue instituted in the worship of God contrary to his commaundement as the worshipping of God in grauen images contrary to his commaundement concerning images and the calling vpon angels and saintes contrary to the commaundement Thou shalt haue no other Gods but me Finally they haue in liew of Christ established Antichrist with a gard of Cardinalles and an army of priestes and certeine swarmes of vermine called monkes and friers to the dissipation of Christs body and the subuersion of the faith 16. The true church neuer made publike confession of their sinnes to the virgin Mary to the archangell Michaell to saint Iohn Baptist or to the apostles Peter and Paul and to all the saintes Saint Augustines confessions are comprized in diuers bookes yet hath he none of this fashion In the ancient liturgies albeit they haue passed through the handes of falsaryes yet can no such precedent be found But they in their dayly liturgies a In breuiario officio beata Mariae teach men to say in this sort Confite or deo omnipotenti beatae Mariae semper virgini beato Ioanni Baptistae sanctis apostolis Petro Paulo beato N. omnibus sanctis vobis fratres 17. Christs true church hath no sacraments but such as Christ hath instituted as may appeare by Iustines apology by that booke of sacraments that passeth vnder the name of Ambrose by Dionysius his description of ecclesiasticall mysteries and all ancient liturgies of the Christian church saue such as are falsified But the popish synagogue haue made euangelicall sacraments of matrimony order and penance Of which the first two were instituted in the old testament and the third is an act alwaies vsed in the church of God but neuer accounted a sacrament as wanting both certaine signes and sacramentall institution and forme They haue also made sacraments of confirmation and extreme vnction and giuen them both signes and formes that were neuer knowne in the ancient church of Christ 18. The true church neuer shunned to receiue the cup as well as the Lordes body in the sacrament b Serm. 4. de quadrages Leo saith they were Manichées That receiuing the sacraments tooke the body of Christ but in any wise shunned to drinke the blood of our redemption and he calleth this act Sacrilegious c De consecrat dist 2. c. comperimus Gelasius also saith That it is plaine sacriledge to part the one and the same mystery and to receiue a portion of the sanctified body and to absteine from the cup of the sacred blood But now the synagogue of Rome doth count this ministration of Sacraments in one kinde to bee good religion and streightly commandeth all saue the priest to abstaine from the cup. 19. The ancient catholike d Apost can 9. concil Antioch c. 2. church did excommunicate such As entred the church and heard the Scriptures read and staide not out praiers nor receiued the holy communion And the Romanists themselues vnder the name of Calixtus haue e C. peracta de consecrat dist 2. published this decrée That all shoulde bee excommunicate that woulde not communicate And that this was the order of the christian church that all that were present at the oblation shoulde communicate it appéereth both by Iustines second apologie and by Dionysius the Areopagites description of these ecclesiasticall rites and ceremonies But the church of Rome after consecration sendeth all away for the most part without communion and thinketh it not necessarie 20.

Ambrose saith That our sacrifice is but a samplar of that which our Sauiour offered on the crosse Saint c Contr. Faust. lib. 20. c. 21. Augustine saith That the flesh and blood of this sacrifice was yeelded in very truth when Christ was put to death and that after his ascension it is nowe solemnized by the sacrament of remembrance of that sacrifice d Eccles Hierarch c. 3. Dionysius calleth it A figuratiue sacrifice That which is offred and consecrated by the priest is called a sacrifice and oblation because it is a memoriall and representation of the true sacrifice and holy oblation made on the altar of the crosse as saith e Sentent 4. dist 12. Peter Lombard and so their glosses f Dist 2. de consecrat c. semel c. in Christo. c. iteratur confesse that this sacrifice is but a memoriall or sacrament or representation of Christ his passion and sacrifice g Epist 25. plebi vniuersae Cyprian denieth that wée can institute a new altar or new priesthood Aliud altare constitui aut sacerdotium nouum fieri praeter vnum altare vnum sacerdotium non potest But the papists haue forged of late time a new externall sacrifice propitiatorie for quicke and dead and deuised a new altar of stone and instituted a newe priesthood not to celebrate a memoriall of Christes death and passion but to offer indéede Christ himselfe in a true sacrifice after a grosse and carnall sort 21.
