Thys is my body that is geuen for you thys do in the remembraunce of me And thys Cuppe is the new testament in my bloud whych shal be shedde for you Loo here ye see agayne that it was instituted to kepe the deathe of Chryste in mynde and to testifye wherfore he dyed euen to saue vs from synne death and hell that we shuld seke non other meanes to be delyuered with For there is none other Actes .4 For as the chylderen of Ireaell stonge of the fyrye serpentes colde haue none other remedy to saue them from present deathe then to go and beholde the brason serpēt hanged vp by moyses in the wyldernes whych lokyng on only healed them euē so yf the styng of daeth whych is synne i. Corr. xv haue wonded the soule with the workyng of the lawe in the conscyences there is none other remedye then to runne to Chryste whyche shedde hys bloude hangyng vppon the crosse And to hys euerlastyng testament and mercyfull Promysse that it was shedde for vs for the remyssyon of our Synnes if thys be stonge wyth conscyence of synne and they coketryse of thy Poysoned nature hath beholde

Iesus geuen to mē that we may be saued by Act .4 Here of ye se that the sacrament is an absolucyon of oure sīnes as ofte as we receiue it where it is truly taught and vnderstande receued a ryght Here of ye se also that as the Ebrewes wrote they re storyes and couenaunts and signes geuing ther signes suche names as cold not but keape them in mynde And as god the father dyd folowe the ensample of the people or they folowynge hym and cōmaunded hys Promysses ▪ couenauntes and prophesyes to be wrytē in gestes Signes and cecrmonyes geuynge them names that colde not but kepe hys couenauntes in

of storyes only and that ther is none other vertu in thē then to thestyfye the couenauntes and promysses made in chrysts bloud And here of ye perceyue that where nought is vnderstand by the sacrament or ceremonyes ther they be clene vnprofitable And as the circumcisyon in the flesh ther hartes stylle vncyrcumcysed But hatynge the lawe of god and beleuynge in ther oune ymagynacyons were circūcysed vnto theyr great dampnacyon And as they baptised in the flesh only the harte styll vnclene nether beleuyng in chryst for the forgeuenes of ther sīnes Nether loue ther neyboure for chrystes sake are baptysed also vnto ther greatter dampnacyon for though god haue ryght to all men bycause he hath creaed and made man ▪ yet to all such persones by the reason of the sygne and bage and of there owne

so fette absolucyon of theyr synnes with a sette purpose to synne no more as nye as they can and to call to memorye the Benefyttes of the Passyon of Chryste with the medytacyon to weak the flesh and strenght the Spyrite agaynste her And to geue thankes ▪ agayne that is to saye to calle to mynde Howe muche he is bounden for Chrystes sake to loue hys neyghbour to helpe hys neade and to beare hys

discyples but forbadde it them Some wyll say Thys sacrament neaded not Baptisme is Inough Baptysme as a receyuyng into relygyon ther is the couenantes made what we shall do and what we shall haue And Baptyme as a sygne wherby god hath ryght to vs and we to god and to chryst and wherby euery man hathe ryght to call other to do ther dutes and to rebuk them that wyll not Nether owr saluacyon so greately standeth in ther or any other sacramente that we coulde not be saued wyth owt them By preachynge the worde only Neuer the later god as ryght is wyll haue hys benefittes kept in memory to hys glory our benefyte and namely thys benefytte of all benefittes wherin onely the pythe of our saluatyon resteth therfore though the affecte of it be sygnyfyed by baptysme And though we be Baptysed to beleue in the death of Chryst and to dye wyth hym by mortyfyeng of the flesh yet doth thys sacrament thorow the rehearsynge of the couenaunt and breakyng of the breade pouryng oute of wyne much more
