be_v once_o a_o priest_n yet_o as_o now_o he_o have_v resign_v that_o office_n unto_o other_o the_o apostle_n testify_v that_o he_o be_v a_o priest_n still_o and_o ever_o shall_v be_v say_v thus_o of_o he_o 6.4.5.6_o thou_o be_v a_o high_a priest_n for_o ever_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchizedech_n and_o because_o we_o shall_v not_o think_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o other_o priest_n than_o he_o the_o apostle_n teach_v we_o that_o there_o may_v be_v none_o other_o in_o that_o he_o say_v that_o no_o man_n may_v take_v the_o honour_n of_o high_a priest_n unto_o himself_o except_o he_o be_v call_v of_o god_n as_o christ_n be_v call_v to_o that_o office_n by_o his_o father_n these_o be_v his_o very_a word_n no_o man_n may_v take_v that_o honour_n upon_o he_o but_o he_o shall_v

he_o which_o say_v unto_o he_o thou_o be_v my_o son_n this_o day_n have_v i_o beget_v thou_o now_o as_o we_o be_v teach_v by_o this_o text_n that_o neither_o there_o be_v nor_o aught_o to_o be_v any_o more_o than_o one_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o sin_n that_o be_v to_o wit_n jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v and_o shall_v be_v the_o high_a priest_n for_o ever_o so_o be_v we_o teach_v also_o by_o other_o text_n that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o only_a sacrifice_n once_o offer_v for_o all_o sin_n and_o to_o obtain_v everlasting_a life_n which_o be_v the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o jesus_n christ_n our_o saviour_n and_o that_o we_o need_v none_o other_o sacrifice_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n but_o only_o that_o this_o be_v the_o very_a text_n of_o the_o apostle_n which_o be_v so_o plain_n and_o clear_a as_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o by_o the_o which_o will_v we_o be_v make_v holy_a 14.18_o even_o by_o the_o offering_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n once_o for_o all_o for_o by_o that_o one_o offering_n have_v he_o make_v they_o perfect_a for_o ever_o which_o be_v to_o be_v sanctify_v &_o where_o remission_n of_o sin_n be_v there_o need_v no_o more_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n which_o word_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v a_o very_a definitive_a sentence_n pronounce_v against_o the_o mass_n for_o if_o there_o be_v no_o more_o offer_v for_o sin_n what_o shall_v become_v of_o the_o mass_n see_v it_o be_v no_o other_o thing_n in_o substance_n as_o the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o consecration_n do_v declare_v but_o a_o sacrifice_n and_o a_o offering_n for_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o quick_a and_o the_o dead_a and_o in_o very_a deed_n the_o catholic_n schoolman_n not_o be_v able_a by_o any_o mean_n to_o rid_v themselves_o of_o these_o text_n which_o be_v so_o plain_a and_o clear_a do_v say_v for_o their_o refuge_n that_o the_o master_n be_v not_o a_o very_a sacrifice_n in_o deed_n but_o a_o remembrance_n of_o the_o only_a and_o true_a sacrifice_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n but_o the_o answer_n to_o this_o shift_n of_o descant_n be_v very_o easy_a for_o see_v they_o do_v maintain_v that_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o mass_n and_o that_o the_o bread_n of_o the_o singingcake_n be_v change_v into_o his_o very_a body_n and_o the_o wine_n into_o his_o very_a blood_n and_o that_o they_o break_v his_o body_n in_o piece_n and_o offer_v up_o both_o the_o body_n and_o the_o blood_n in_o sacrifice_n unto_o god_n it_o follow_v of_o necessity_n that_o their_o opinion_n be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o very_a sacrifice_n and_o not_o a_o remembrance_n only_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o protestant_n do_v say_v that_o the_o remembrance_n of_o the_o true_a sacrifice_n of_o jesus_n christ_n aught_o to_o be_v do_v by_o celebrate_v his_o holy_a supper_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n that_o he_o have_v appoint_v it_o for_o he_o have_v ordain_v that_o his_o supper_n shall_v be_v celebrate_v by_o many_o at_o once_o because_o it_o be_v a_o sacramental_a communion_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o saviour_n by_o the_o which_o we_o be_v make_v one_o body_n and_o as_o it_o be_v one_o loaf_n in_o jesus_n christ_n &_o become_v partaker_n of_o one_o self-same_a bread_n of_o everlasting_a life_n these_o be_v the_o word_n of_o s._n paul_n upon_o the_o same_o matter_n 10.16.17_o be_v not_o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o we_o bless_v a_o partake_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v not_o the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v a_o partake_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n for_o we_o that_o be_v many_o be_v one_o loaf_n and_o one_o body_n because_o we_o be_v all_o partaker_n of_o one_o bread_n by_o which_o text_n it_o appear_v evident_o that_o the_o remembrance_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o saviour_n ought_v to_o be_v use_v in_o celebrate_v the_o holy_a supper_n by_o many_o together_o accordingly_z as_z when_o he_o do_v institute_v and_o celebrate_v it_o with_o his_o disciple_n they_o be_v many_o together_o and_o so_o consequent_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o master_n neither_o be_v nor_o can_v be_v a_o true_a remembrance_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o christ_n see_v that_o none_o take_v part_n of_o it_o but_o the_o priest_n himself_o now_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o canon_n the_o canon_n which_o we_o have_v allege_v in_o the_o

of_o the_o side_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n when_o he_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o therefore_o see_v that_o the_o wine_n in_o the_o chalice_n at_o the_o mass_n time_n be_v

of_o the_o doctrine_n which_o the_o protestant_n do_v hold_v concern_v faith_n and_o good_a work_n whereby_o they_o yield_v whole_o unto_o god_n and_o to_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n the_o

temporal_a whatsoever_o they_o be_v ourselves_o it_o follow_v then_o according_a to_o our_o first_o maxim_n that_o this_o doctrine_n be_v better_a than_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o romish_a catholic_n who_o affirm_v that_o by_o their_o good_a work_n they_o deserve_v paradise_n &_o all_o the_o other_o good_a thing_n which_o god_n give_v they_o &_o that_o these_o good_a work_n do_v partly_o proceed_v of_o themselves_o and_o of_o their_o own_o free_a will_n and_o part_o of_o god_n grace_n as_o if_o god_n alone_o can_v not_o save_v they_o if_o they_o help_v not_o the_o matter_n by_o their_o own_o good_a work_n which_o they_o hold_v to_o be_v part_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o salvation_n which_o doctrine_n all_o man_n may_v easy_o perceive_v to_o be_v repugnant_a to_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n for_o see_v that_o he_o be_v altogether_o and_o perfect_o merciful_a it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o those_o that_o be_v save_v be_v save_v whole_o and_o not_o in_o part_n by_o his_o only_a mercy_n which_o shall_v not_o be_v perfect_a if_o the_o effect_n thereof_o be_v not_o perfect_v and_o entire_o notwithstanding_o the_o catholic_n hold_v opinion_n still_o that_o their_o good_a work_n be_v part_n of_o the_o cause_n of_o their_o salvation_n and_o that_o they_o be_v not_o save_v by_o the_o only_a mercy_n of_o god._n yea_o there_o be_v monk_n which_o take_v themselves_o to_o have_v such_o abundance_n of_o good_a work_n in_o store_n that_o they_o not_o only_o have_v enough_o wherewith_o to_o merit_v their_o own_o salvation_n but_o also_o a_o great_a mass_n of_o overplus_n which_o they_o call_v work_n of_o supererogation_n supererogation_n to_o purchase_v the_o salvation_n of_o other_o man_n but_o chief_o of_o such_o as_o do_v they_o good_a and_o geve_v they_o liberal_o of_o their_o temporal_a good_n which_o doctrine_n in_o very_a truth_n all_o such_o as_o love_v the_o name_n of_o god_n ought_v to_o reject_v for_o it_o be_v a_o utter_a deface_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o our_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n &_o a_o attribute_v of_o the_o honour_n of_o our_o salvation_n to_o the_o unclean_a work_n of_o sinner_n whereas_o in_o deed_n we_o ought_v to_o attribute_v the_o same_o to_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n who_o be_v without_o sin_n also_o it_o be_v to_o be_v discern_v by_o god_n word_n which_o of_o the_o two_o doctrine_n be_v the_o true_a and_o most_o ancient_a for_o the_o scripture_n do_v plain_o teach_v we_o that_o we_o be_v justify_v by_o faith_n without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o law_n &_o

faith_n which_o do_v justify_v we_o may_v not_o be_v void_a of_o good_a work_n for_o than_o it_o be_v like_o the_o faith_n of_o devil_n who_o believe_v that_o god_n have_v command_v the_o content_n of_o the_o ten_o commandment_n but_o do_v quite_o contrary_a for_o such_o a_o faith_n will_v not_o justify_v we_o as_o s._n james_n 1.12_o do_v teach_v we_o and_o whereas_o the_o catholic_n hold_v

dead_a in_o sin_n and_o he_o who_o only_o have_v the_o power_n to_o do_v it_o have_v give_v this_o principal_a commandment_n to_o s._n peter_n say_v that_o which_o thou_o unbinde_v upon_o earth_n shall_v be_v unbound_v in_o heaven_n and_o that_o which_o thou_o bind_v upon_o earth_n shall_v be_v bind_v in_o heaven_n he_o say_v upon_o earth_n but_o he_o never_o say_v that_o he_o which_o be_v depart_v bind_v by_o sin_n shall_v be_v release_v which_o canon_n do_v well_o show_v that_o the_o power_n to_o unbind_v do_v not_o stretch_v so_o far_o as_o to_o hell_n nor_o so_o far_o as_o to_o the_o pretend_a purgatory_n but_o only_o to_o the_o earth_n and_o that_o the_o pope_n of_o late_a year_n have_v go_v about_o to_o extend_v the_o bound_n of_o their_o territory_n to_o far_o in_o command_v the_o angel_n as_o they_o do_v by_o their_o bull_n of_o pardon_n to_o go_v fetch_v the_o soul_n of_o such_o out_o of_o purgatory_n as_o the_o pope_n themselves_o list_v to_o name_n for_o

that_o the_o custom_n of_o pray_v for_o the_o dead_a have_v be_v allow_v and_o receive_v now_o of_o long_a time_n even_o from_o the_o time_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n but_o it_o do_v not_o

the_o opinion_n that_o some_o ancient_a father_n have_v imagine_v that_o to_o pray_v for_o the_o damn_a sort_n may_v do_v they_o good_a not_o to_o exempt_v they_o from_o eternal_a pain_n but_o to_o

in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n yet_o can_v purgatory_n be_v ground_v thereupon_o forasmuch_o as_o the_o pray_n of_o the_o father_n of_o old_a time_n be_v either_o for_o those_o which_o be_v happy_a in_o

late_a invention_n of_o the_o new_a description_n of_o hell_n the_o famose_a doctor_n that_o ever_o speak_v of_o purgatory_n be_v s._n gregory_n 39_o who_o notwithstanding_o speak_v after_o such_o a_o

deadly_a sin_n can_v sin_n so_o that_o by_o this_o reckon_n the_o pain_n &_o torment_n of_o this_o pretend_a purgatory_n have_v no_o more_o power_n to_o purge_v than_o have_v the_o simple_a holy_a water_n whereunto_o they_o do_v likewise_o attribute_v the_o virtue_n of_o cleanse_v and_o of_o wash_v away_o of_o man_n venial_a sin_n these_o be_v the_o very_a word_n of_o s._n gregory_n such_o as_o a_o man_n depart_v hence_o such_o be_v he_o present_v in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n but_o yet_o we_o must_v believe_v that_o before_o the_o judgement_n there_o be_v a_o fire_n of_o purgation_n for_o certain_a degree_n of_o sin_n because_o the_o truth_n say_v that_o if_o any_o man_n have_v blaspheme_v the_o holy_a ghost_n his_o sin_n shall_v not_o be_v forgive_v neither_o in_o this_o world_n nor_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v by_o which_o word_n it_o be_v give_v we_o to_o understand_v that_o there_o be_v some_o sin_n which_o may_v be_v pardon_v in_o this_o world_n and_o some_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v for_o that_o which_o be_v deny_v in_o one_o sin_n be_v grant_v in_o a_o other_o by_o consequent_a interpretation_n but_o yet_o as_o i_o have_v say_v you_o must_v understand_v

the_o interpretation_n which_o s._n gregory_n have_v make_v of_o it_o howbeit_o amiss_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o in_o the_o text_n of_o the_o holy_a scripture_n which_o say_v that_o the_o sin_n against_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v not_o pardon_v in_o this_o world_n nor_o in_o the_o world_n to_o come_v the_o romish_a catholic_n or_o rather_o the_o schoolman_n and_o sophister_n have_v altogether_o build_v and_o found_v their_o purgatory_n and_o they_o be_v not_o content_v that_o only_o venial_a sin_n shall_v there_o be_v purge_v as_o s._n gregory_n will_v but_o they_o will_v needs_o have_v it_o to_o serve_v for_o the_o do_v away_o of_o deadly_a sin_n also_o either_o by_o remain_v there_o the_o full_a time_n of_o seven_o year_n for_o every_o deadly_a sin_n or_o else_o by_o redeem_v or_o shorten_v that_o long_a season_n by_o the_o celebrate_n and_o sound_v of_o mass_n and_o other_o suffrage_n which_o addition_n of_o the_o sophister_n have_v marvellous_o enrich_v the_o

to_o purge_v venial_a sin_n according_a to_o the_o aforesaid_a opinion_n of_o s._n gregory_n for_o the_o good_a people_n of_o christendom_n have_v rather_o to_o have_v purge_v themselves_o from_o those_o sin_n with_o holy_a water_n which_o do_v no_o harm_n to_o those_o that_o sprinkle_v themselves_o therewith_o then_o by_o the_o fire_n of_o purgatory_n which_o be_v affirm_v to_o be_v extreme_o

waist_n and_o barren_a soil_n if_o man_n have_v hold_v themselves_o to_o the_o only_a say_n of_o s._n gregory_n thus_o may_v you_o see_v how_o the_o poor_a world_n have_v be_v abuse_v by_o the_o

therefore_o let_v they_o blame_v the_o reform_a religion_n asmuch_o as_o they_o list_v and_o report_v it_o to_o be_v new_a full_a of_o error_n and_o heresy_n and_o contrary_a to_o the_o word_n of_o
