for_o the_o same_o which_o thanksgiving_n be_v the_o sacrifice_n and_o calf_n of_o our_o lip_n hebr._n 13._o 15._o ii_o because_o every_o communicant_a do_v there_o present_a himself_o body_n and_o

ourselves_o unto_o god_n as_o servant_n to_o walk_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o all_o dutiful_a obedience_n iii_o it_o be_v call_v a_o sacrifice_n in_o respect_n of_o that_o which_o be_v join_v with_o the_o sacrament_n namely_o the_o alm_n give_v to_o the_o poor_a as_o a_o testimony_n of_o our_o thankfulness_n unto_o god_n and_o in_o this_o regard_n also_o the_o ancient_a father_n have_v call_v the_o sacrament_n a_o unbloodie_a sacrifice_n and_o the_o table_n a_o altar_n &_o the_o minister_n priest_n and_o the_o whole_a action_n a_o oblation_n not_o to_o god_n but_o to_o the_o congregation_n

be_v offer_v by_o the_o priest_n to_o god_n and_o usual_o in_o ancient_a writer_n the_o communion_n of_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o congregation_n be_v call_v the_o sacrifice_n or_o oblation_n conclus_fw-la ii_o that_o the_o very_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v offer_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o as_o we_o take_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n sacramental_o by_o

past_a and_o do_v as_o present_v augustine_n rom._n say_v when_o we_o believe_v in_o christ_n he_o be_v offer_v for_o we_o daily_o and_o christ_n be_v then_o slay_v for_o every_o one_o when_o he_o

offer_v damas._n to_o the_o believer_n ii_o the_o difference_n they_o make_v the_o eucharist_n to_o be_v a_o real_a external_a or_o bodily_a sacrifice_n offer_v unto_o god_n hold_v and_o teach_v that_o the_o minister_n be_v a_o priest_n proper_o and_o that_o in_o this_o sacrament_n he_o offer_v christ_n body_n and_o blood_n to_o god_n the_o father_n real_o and_o proper_o under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n we_o acknowledge_v no_o real_a outward_a or_o bodily_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n but_o only_o christ_n oblation_n on_o the_o cross_n once_o offer_v
