all one in Christ Iesus If ye be Christes then are ye Abrahams sede heires according to the promise The places of holy scripture and the woordes makyng for the institucion of the Lordes supper are these here folowing Math. xxvi VVHan they were eatyng Iesus tooke breade and whan he had geuen thankes he brake it and gaue it to the disciples and sayed take eate this is my body And he tooke the cuppe and thanked and gaue it them saying drynke ye all of this For this is my bloude whiche is of the newe testamēt that is shed for many for the remission of synnes Marke xiiii And as they were eatyng Iesus toke bread and whan he had geuen thākes he brake it and gaue to them sayed take eate this is my bodye And he toke the cup and whan he had geuen thankes he toke it to thē and they all dranke of it and he sayed vnto them this is my bloud of the newe testamente whiche is shed for many Luke xxii And he toke bread and whan he had geuen thankes he brake it and gaue vnto them saying this is my body whiche is geuen for you This do ye in the remembraunce of me lykewise also whan he had supped he tooke the cup saying this cup is the newe Testamente in my bloude whiche is shed for you 1. Corin. xi That whiche I haue deliuered vnto you I receiued of the lord For the lord Iesus thesame night in whiche he was betraied toke breade and whan he had geuen thankes he brake it said take ye eat this is my body which is broken for you This do ye in the remembraunce of me After thesame maner also he toke the cuppe whan supper was doen saying this cuppe is the newe Testament in my bloude This do as ofte as ye drinke it in remembraunce of me For as often as ye shal eat this bread and drinke of this cup ye shall shew the lordes death till he come Wherfore whosoeuer shal eate of this bread or drynke of this cuppe of the lorde vnworthily shall bee giltie of the bodye and bloud of the Lorde But lette a man examine hymselfe and so lette him eate of the bread and drynke of the cuppe For he that eateth drynketh vnworthyly eateth drynketh his owne damnacion because he maketh no difference of the lordes body ¶ The woordes of the ecclesiasticall discipline or brotherlye correccion are these Math. xviii THe Lorde Iesus sayth If thy brother sinneth against thee go thy wayes and rebuke hym betwixt the hym alone If he heare the than hast thou wonne thy brother If he wyll not heare the then take one or two vnto the that euery thyng may be at a stay by the mouthe of two or thre witnesses If he wyll not yet heare the then tell it vnto the congregacion If he will not heare the cōgregacion then take him as a heathen and as an vnchristian Verely I say vnto you Whatsoeuer ye shal bynde vpon earth shal also be bound in heauen And whatsoeuer ye shall leuse vpon earth shall be also leused in heauen M. Well now declare me the same poyntes euerye one after other as I haue taught the here tofore fyrst tell me why dyd God geue the .x. cōmaundementes vnto man S. Forsouthe to th entent we might lerne his will out of them Psal xi know what he wylleth vs to do and what to leaue vndone Esai viii For the lawe of the .x. cōmaundementes is a perfite rule wherby the wyll of god is knowē Luke xvi both how to behaue our selfes towardes him our almightie euerlastyng god and maker also towarde our neighbour and euen christen M. What meaneth the Lorde where he sayeth I am the lord thy God c. S. He wylleth that we should beleue knowlege that he of his free mercye through our sauiour Iesus Christ Collo i. Gala. iiii hath redemed vs from the power of the deuill from the bondage of the worlde and of synne and hath receiued vs to be his owne peculiar heires into the fredome felowship of euerlastyng life lyke as he receyued the Iewes vnto hym Exo. xiiii whan he redeemed them out of the tirannie of the Egypcians M. And what is the vnderstāding of these wordes Thou shalt haue none other Gods c. S. He wylleth by those woordes that we shoulde withall diligence eschewe and be ware of all maner of Idolatry and false seruice of God inuented by man though it seme or be neuer so high and gloryous M. What is Idolatrye S. Idolatrye is to haue besydes the onely ryght god our heuenlye father Esa xlv some other to seeke helpe at Or Idolatrye is to make some other mediatour or aduocate betwene God and vs than alonely our sauiour Iesus Christe i. Tim. ii M. Maye we not than vse the help and intercession of the holy Angels sainctes that they may make intercession for vs vnto God S. We ought to seeke nor vse none other meanes to obteyne the fauour of God and reconciliacion of Iesus Christe than alonely suche as the lorde hym selfe hath appointed in his holy worde but to put all our trust and confidence in God and in our lorde Iesus onely and in no creature at all M. Whan is this commaundement rightly fulfilled and kept as it ought to be S. Firste whan I beleue and doubt nothyng at all that almightie God thorough our lorde Iesus Christe wil be my God and helper that he will delyuer me from all euyll and endue me with all felicitie both here and euerlastyng Secondarily whan I put all my trust and confidēce in god our heuenly father thorowe the lorde Iesus Christe onely trusting sekyng for all help comforte of hym alone and of none other creature And that thorow such meanes only as he hath appointed forsakyng all inuencions and dreames of manne Math xv Thus doyng I geue hym his Godly honor whiche is due vnto him M. What is mente by the second commaundement Thou shalte make the no grauen Image The secōde cōmaundement c. howe is that to be vnderstanded S. We ought so to print the maiestie of god which is a spirit Iohn v Exo. xx in our hartes that we neyther make nor sette vp no maner of ymage wherunto any maner of honor or wurship due vnto God onlye may be geuen either outwardly by any gesture Deut. v. Esa xliiii or inwardlye in the herte M. Whan is this commaundement transgressed S. As ofte as we ascribe any diuine power vnto any ymage or seke any helpe at theym or geue any manner of reuerence vnto theym as whan we praye before them whan we knele or fall down before them or make curtesie vnto them settyng vp any candels before theym or censing them or shewyng anye like poynt of reuerence Lykewise whan anye man doeth institute or imagine of his owne head without any authoritie of the word of god
laudes and thankes vnto him for suche excellente benefites geuyng vp and yeldyng our selues wholly vnto hym M. What maner of people are to bee admytted vnto this supper S. All that are truly repentaunte and sorye for their sinnes and yet beleue stedfastlie that god for Christes sake wyll be mercyfull vnto them and that they are the true membres of Christe liuing in the feare and true obedience of the Lord and in perfect loue of theyr neighbour as brethren of one kyngdome membres of one bodye and redemed with one bloud of Iesus Christ redye to confesse the doctrine of the holy gospell in the middes of all persecucion and affliccion and to defende it euen vnto death M. what thinkest thou of thē whiche will neuer receiue this holy supper with the faithfull congregacion of Christe S. If they abstaine from it wilfullye of concempte and stubbernes that is to saye yf they maye haue it ministred vnto them after the institucion of the Lorde and yet regarde it not and will not receyue it it is an euidente token that they pertayne nothing at all vnto the body of Christe For whosoeuer beleueth in the Lorde truly can not neglecte or contemne any of his hollye ordinaunces but with all reuerence vse them as ofte he maye M. Where as s Paul sayeth Lette euery manne proue hymselfe and so eate of that bread What is mente therby or whan eate we this supper wurthyly S. Of our selues we can neuer be woorthy vnto it But God of his grace and mercye reputeth vs woorthy of his heauenlye misteries and benefites whansoeuer we referre the remission of oure sinnes and oure saluacion vnto the death and resurreccion of Christe and seke it therat onely Wherfore whansoeuer I receyue the holy supper with this faythe and belefe that Christe Iesus gaue his tender bodye vnto death for me and shedde his precious bloud for me and so redemed me from euerlastyng deathe And that his fleshe and bloude are the foode and sustenaunce of my soule whereby I am refresshed and nourisshed vnto euerlastynge lyfe submitting my selfe in this faythe hartilye and fullye both bodye soule vnto the will of god and vtterly detesting in word dede and example almaner of sinne and wickednes and whatsoeuer maye geue any occasion therunto c. then receyue I this hollye supper wurthyly For this is the true communion and participacion of Christes bodye and bloud wherby we are sure that he dwelleth in vs and we in hym For els we coulde doe none of this at all M. Me thynketh by thy answers that the holy supper of the Lorde sendeth and referreth vs all together vnto the deathe and passion of Christe that we maye so by that meanes enioye and haue fruicion of the same S. Yea forsouth for whan he suffred vpon the crosse then he was made the onely euerlastyng sacrifice sufficiente for our saluacion wherefore there is nothyng remaynyng for vs more but that we maye enioy and haue the fruicion of hym M. And was not the supper ordeyned of God to bee a propiciatory sacrifice wherin the body of Christe should be offered vnto God of freshe or of newe S. No forsouth For that were iniurious vnto his death And the woordes doe sounde thus take and eate c. Where he commaundeth vs not to sacrifice or to offer his body but onely to eate c. M. And why was it ordeyned to bee receiued in two diuerse kyndes S. That was done for our infirmities sake to teache vs the more plainly that he is not only the meate wherwith our soules are norished but also the verye drynke wherwith they are refreshed that we shoulde seke no parte of our spirituall lyfe any where els sauyng at hym and in hym alone M. And ought all men generally without excepcion to receyue both kyndes S. Yea for south so do the woordes of Christe commaund saying drinke ye all of this from the whiche to derogate or mynishe any thyng it were an heynous synne M. But now how oughteste thou to behaue thyselfe after thou haste thus receiued this holy supper S. I oughte fyrste to reioyce in the remission of my synnes in the lyfe of Christe in me and in the blissed resurreccion whan as he shall lyue fully in me and in vs be all in all And thus to auaunce my selfe agaynste synne agaynst the deuyll death and hel And to geue God eternall thankes for all these his excedyng benefites M. What oughtest thou els to doe S. I ought also to subdue to tame and to crucify mine owne fleshe and bloud with al maner of wicked lustes and affecciōs to liue hereafter as a mēbre of that body onely whose head is Christe and not as a membre of any other body But vtterly to yelde and geue ouer myselfe vnto my lorde God to bee one breade and one bodye with all faythfull christians whyche doe truely inuocate and call vpon the name of the Lorde to lyue with them in perfite loue and charitie and wyth this bande of loue to haue my heart fixed and knitte vnto theirs and thus euermore to remayne cōtinue And I ought also to confesse and magnifie my Lorde Iesus in his churche and congregacion with all my woordes and dedes awaytyng dayly to haue this lyfe changed with a better and into a better lyfe M. What yf we receyue the supper with suche as be vnwoorthy doe we make our selues also vnworthy by reason of that S. No we doe not if so be that we consente not vnto theyr synnes but haue in mynde and will yf we can know them and may come vnto them to exhorte and admonishe them faythfully our selues or els cause some other to doe it For it pertayneth vnto no priuate person to exclude any man out of the churche or congregacion but onely vnto the whole churche or vnto them that are chosen appointed of the same vnto that office And theyr duetie it is to considre bothe in this matter and all other what may be most profitable and expediente vnto edificacion M. But nowe why should men receyue this sacramente ofte seing they receyue the sacramente of baptisme but once S. Baptisme is a sacramente of enteraunce into the religiō of Christ and betokeneth that menne are nowe dead vnto the olde lyfe wyll from thencefoorth walke in a newe lyfe Wherfore lyke as Christe died but once that for our synnes and shall from hence foorth dye no more euen so ought the sacrament of baptisme whiche representeth the same to bee receyued but once But the holye supper is a sacramente of procedyng and goyng forward in the religion of Christ and signifieth that the manne whiche is once incorporate vnto Christe and fed or susteyned continually through hym wyll euermore continue procede and goe forwarde in a perfite christian life And forasmuche as many impedimentes lets and temptacions doe chaunce vnto suche menne by the waye which notwithstandyng doe styll hungre and thurst after ryghteousnesse And this supper
confidence of euerlastyng lyfe saluacion in Christe Iesus the sonne of God whiche is not onelye a mightie puissaunt lorde ouer synne death and hel all which he hath vtterly depriued of all theyr power and mighte that they can neuer ouercome more but also he is suche a lorde vnto vs as hath boughte and redemed vs from the bondage of synne and deliuered vs frō Sathans iurisdiccion hath taken suche charge of vs that he wyll from hencefoorth continually defende and preserue vs as any lorde will do his naturall people that are sworne subiecte vnto him M. Why do we call him Iesus S. Because he is an healper and sauiour whiche saueth and helpeth the children of god from synne and from all kynde of euill Math. i. and ix Luke ii M. Why do we call hym Christe S. Because he is the annoynted king of God which gouerneth the children of God vnto euerlastyng lyfe M. Wherin consisteth his gouernaunce S. In obteynyng vs remission of our synnes and in geuyng his spirite M. Why do we say his onely sonne S. For a differēce betwene him and vs. For he was borne very god the very brightnes of his beautie and glory out of the very nature godly substaunce of the father without all synne But we are the children of god through adopcion and grace whiche els by nature muste haue remayned the children of wrathe and of euerlastyng death M. Why sayest thou Esai ix Math. xii Collo i. i. Cor. vi our Lorde S. Because he onely hath broken the yoke of Sathan and delyuered vs frō his tyranny redemyng vs with the precious price of his bloud Wherfore we are not our owne but his and we ought to serue him onely and to lyue after his wyll and not after our owne M. What foloweth S. Whiche was conceyued by the holy gost borne out of the virgin Mary M. What beleuest thou by this S. That our sauiour Christe for our wealth is become very manne but without all maner of sin M. Whereby gatherest thou that he is without all maner of sin S. By that that he was not conceiued by any manne but by the holy ghost and borne of the pure virgin Mary M. What profit or cōforte hast thou by this belefe S. This comfort haue I therby that I beleue that he thorowe his holy and heuenly concepcion hath sāctified our vnclene and earthly concepcion and that he wyll take awaye the vncleanesse of my byrth and nature and wyll make me partaker of his blissed byrth and of the holynesse of his nature M. Why is thy nature vncleane and vnholy S. Yea for as muche as we all are conceyued borne in sinne M. what other profite is it vnto vs that the sonne of god toke mannes nature vpon hym and became man S. We are assured also thereby that he is our brother and that he and we are partakers of one fleshe and bloud And for as muche as he would ouercome sathan in our fleshe we are sure that his victorie is ours and that we are admitted and receiued vnto the euerlastyng participacion of all his heauenly goodes richesse M. What hath the sonne of God Iesus Christ doen for our sake S. He suffred vnder Ponce Pilate was crucifyed dyed and was buried descended vnto hel M. what beleuest thou in this S. Hereby I beleue that Christ dyd suffre for vs the moste vilaynous and bytterest death to reconcile vs thorow the oblacion of his owne bodye vnto god the father and to take away our synnes and so to delyuer vs from the deuill death sinne and hell M. why was it the moste vyllaynous death S. Because he was condemned vnto death as a blasphemouse and a sedicious persō and the wycked vyllayne and murtherer Barrabas quit and deliuered M. Why was it the moste bytterest death S. Because he was mocked scourged crowned with pryckyng thornes nailed vnto the crosse M. Why sayest thou Died was buried and descended to hell S. Because he dyed verely and his body was layed in the graue his soule wente vnto the soules that wer before departed M. What went he in to the paynes of the damned soules S. No but vnto the holy soules whiche did rest frō the time of Adam and Noe in the bosome of Abraham waytyng for Christes ioyfull cummyng M. And why did he descende vnto them S. In token that the frute vertue effecte of his passion dyd not apperteyne only vnto them that were than alyue but also vnto them that were dead before M. what mayest thou learne by all this S. Forsoth .iiii. speciall lessons Fyrste I maye well consyder therby the great heauynes of my sinne whiche the Lorde dyd raūsome with so paynfull smart and tormente M. What is the seconde S. Secondarilye I fynde also a singuler comforte herein whiche is this that the Lorde hath satisfied and taken awaye all my synnes together with the payne whiche I had well deserued to haue suffered for them thorough his owne death bitter passion M. And what is the thirde S. Thirdly I maye learne hereby pacientlye to suffer whatsoeuer it shall please the Lorde to lay vpon me and to beare my crosse mekelye after hym euen vnto death seyng he thorowe his Crosse and passion hath sanctifyed all manner of affliccions and made them swete pleasaūt and fruitefull for vs. And we maye be assured that if we suffer with hym we shall also lyue and reygne with him M. Now what is the fowerth and laste of all S. Forsothe that is this that I may learne hereby the hyghe and inestimable loue of God towarde mankynde whiche dydde not spare his onelye dere beloued soonne but gaue hym vnto suche a cruell and villaynous deathe for vs vnwoorthy mysyrable fylthye and wretched sinners M. What beleueste thou more of our Lorde Iesus Christe S. That on the thirde daye he arose vp agayne from the dead ascended into the heauens setteth at the ryghthande of God the father almyghtye M. What is all this to saye S. Thus muche I beleue and confesse that Iesus Christe the sonne of God beeyng without spotte or synne coulde not bee kept or holden with the bandes of death whiche came into the worlde by reason of sinne And therfore thorough his godlye power he vanquysshed bothe deathe and helle and vpon the thyrde daye he arose agayn appearyng vnto his disciples in a gloryfyed and an immortall bodye M. What doeth the resureccion of Christe profite vs S. For sothe verye muche for thereby are we assured that death hell and the deuil are ouercome and that sinne is taken awaye and euerlastyng righteousnesse sette in the place and purchased of the father for vs yf so be that we beleue in hym Furthermore it is a sure pledge vnto vs that our bodies shall also haue free passage into the euerlastyng glorye without any interupcion of deuil death or hell M. What meanest thou by this where thou sayest that Christe sitteth at the righthand of
