upon_o the_o next_o verse_n he_o be_v rise_v as_o he_o say_v what_o say_v he_o the_o evangelist_n saint_n luke_n chap._n 24._o as_o he_o say_v to_o you_o woman_n when_o you_o be_v in_o galilee_n then_o the_o say_n must_v be_v take_v as_o it_o be_v tell_v they_o by_o christ_n in_o galilee_n before_o he_o be_v crucify_v what_o be_v his_o say_n he_o say_v unto_o they_o i_o shall_v rise_v the_o three_o day_n what_o mean_v christ_n by_o rise_v be_v it_o rise_v in_o the_o grave_n or_o out_o of_o the_o grave_n certain_o out_o of_o the_o grave_n will_v you_o have_v our_o witness_n two_o angel_n luke_n 24.5_o say_v unto_o these_o woman_n why_o seek_v you_o the_o live_n among_o the_o dead_a if_o he_o be_v live_v he_o be_v not_o among_o the_o dead_a therefore_o not_o in_o the_o grave_n but_o out_o of_o the_o grave_n it_o be_v the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o very_a angel_n themselves_o come_v to_o the_o next_o word_n follow_v here_o go_v quick_o tell_v his_o disciple_n that_o he_o be_v rise_v tell_v his_o disciple_n then_o the_o angel_n instruct_v they_o so_o that_o they_o may_v have_v a_o faith_n that_o he_o be_v out_o of_o the_o grave_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v persuade_v the_o disciple_n be_v now_o a_o foundation_n of_o the_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n but_o above_o all_o you_o will_v see_v it_o luke_n 24.6_o he_o render_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n thus_o he_o be_v not_o here_o but_o he_o be_v rise_v but_o that_o be_v a_o particle_n adversitive_a always_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n from_o the_o former_a as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v such_o a_o one_o be_v not_o dead_a but_o alive_a if_o therefore_o alive_a not_o dead_a christ_n say_v of_o his_o body_n i_o be_o not_o spirit_n but_o flesh_n flesh_n therefore_o not_o spirit_n thus_o in_o all_o it_o be_v a_o contradiction_n in_o adjunct_n therefore_o the_o truth_n be_v this_o be_v a_o impossibility_n that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v in_o two_o place_n at_o once_o which_o be_v the_o conclusion_n draw_v from_o thence_o now_o belove_v i_o have_v not_o insist_v so_o much_o upon_o this_o except_o it_o have_v be_v first_o that_o it_o be_v so_o full_a in_o my_o way_n that_o i_o can_v not_o pass_v by_o it_o second_o because_o of_o the_o jealousy_n of_o these_o time_n wherein_o it_o be_v suspect_v that_o divers_a of_o the_o ecclesiastic_n be_v infect_v with_o this_o leaven_n or_o rather_o leprosy_n of_o popery_n to_o think_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o therefore_o now_o i_o shall_v crave_v leave_n to_o enlarge_v myself_o and_o the_o rather_o because_o in_o thus_o say_v whosoever_o they_o be_v they_o destroy_v it_o i_o be_o therefore_o now_o belove_v to_o prove_v it_o unto_o you_o not_o by_o testimony_n and_o allegation_n only_o but_o to_o deliver_v unto_o you_o the_o head_n as_o i_o may_v say_v the_o form_n and_o the_o reason_n summary_o of_o true_a antiquity_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o that_o shall_v confirm_v unto_o we_o this_o our_o doctrine_n to_o have_v be_v not_o only_o a_o catholic_a truth_n but_o to_o have_v have_v the_o degree_n of_o a_o catholic_a faith_n in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n for_o six_o hundred_o year_n together_o brief_o then_o thus_o those_o holy_a father_n teach_v first_o that_o no_o creature_n can_v be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o why_o for_o that_o this_o to_o be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o be_v the_o prerogative_n of_o god_n himself_o second_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o three_o person_n in_o the_o trinity_n be_v god_n why_o for_o that_o it_o be_v in_o divers_a prophet_n at_o once_o jeremiah_n in_o jewry_n daniel_n when_o he_o be_v in_o babylon_n ezekiel_n in_o cabar_n and_o also_o after_o that_o when_o he_o be_v in_o divers_a apostle_n at_o once_o they_o be_v disperse_v into_o divers_a region_n of_o the_o world_n three_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o angel_n be_v not_o go_n why_o because_o angel_n can_v be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o four_o they_o prove_v that_o no_o body_n no_o bodily_a substance_n can_v be_v in_o divers_a place_n at_o once_o why_o for_o that_o it_o be_v one_o body_n and_o to_o be_v here_o and_o there_o in_o one_o instant_a be_v to_o divide_v itself_o from_o itself_o that_o it_o be_v two_o and_o one_o and_o not_o one_o be_v contradiction_n last_o that_o we_o may_v omit_v divers_a other_o they_o prove_v that_o the_o humanity_n be_v thus_o distinguish_v from_o the_o divinity_n because_o the_o deity_n the_o divinity_n nature_n that_o be_v in_o heaven_n be_v in_o earth_n and_o every_o where_o else_o but_o the_o humane_a nature_n if_o it_o be_v in_o heaven_n it_o be_v not_o on_o earth_n if_o on_o earth_n it_o be_v not_o in_o heaven_n thus_o these_o holy_a father_n you_o have_v their_o doctrine_n of_o truth_n now_o that_o it_o may_v appear_v unto_o you_o that_o this_o doctrine_n of_o truth_n be_v also_o a_o doctrine_n of_o faith_n and_o that_o by_o two_o reason_n first_o because_o by_o these_o for_o his_o which_o be_v answerable_a to_o this_o for_o of_o the_o angel_n here_o they_o urge_v they_o against_o the_o heretic_n of_o their_o time_n such_o be_v the_o marcionite_n the_o manichee_n the_o neucomitan_n and_o such_o like_a second_o because_o they_o do_v this_o to_o this_o end_n that_o they_o may_v confirm_v unto_o all_o the_o world_n the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o deity_n to_o know_v that_o this_o be_v a_o prerogative_n belong_v to_o god_n alone_o and_o second_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o the_o true_a nature_n of_o the_o manhood_n of_o christ_n for_o whereas_o the_o manichee_n may_v say_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v in_o the_o moon_n and_o the_o deity_n together_o fieri_fw-la non_fw-la potest_fw-la say_v

he_o manifest_v himself_o to_o his_o apostle_n by_o feeling_n and_o handle_v his_o body_n here_o be_v three_o sense_n now_o belove_v why_o shall_v not_o this_o be_v a_o foundation_n of_o truth_n to_o

again_o i_o be_o just_o occasion_v to_o deal_v with_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n by_o this_o light_n to_o dispel_v the_o darkness_n thereof_o that_o their_o great_a infatuation_n concern_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n they_o say_v he_o be_v in_o the_o sacrament_n in_o these_o three_o opinion_n first_o he_o be_v here_o say_v they_o and_o yet_o his_o body_n be_v invisible_a second_o it_o be_v

speak_v of_o from_o t●●_n church_n of_o christ_n their_o whole_a voice_n for_o a_o general_a union_n for_o this_o the_o angel_n in_o the_o next_o word_n even_o in_o this_o text_n this_o verse_n he_o

not_o here_o here_o be_v the_o argument_n of_o the_o angel_n but_o here_o they_o will_v tell_v we_o he_o pass_v by_o man_n out_o of_o company_n to_o avoid_v danger_n and_o they_o see_v he_o not_o this_o be_v truth_n but_o this_o be_v not_o all_o the_o truth_n for_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o see_v he_o not_o it_o be_v because_o their_o eye_n be_v hold_v that_o they_o can_v not_o see_v how_o many_o of_o you_o now_o see_v this_o pulpit_n and_o yet_o wink_v with_o your_o eye_n you_o can_v see_v it_o be_v this_o pulpit_n ere_o the_o less_o visible_a because_o you_o do_v not_o see_v it_o when_o man_n eye_n be_v hold_v they_o can_v see_v christ_n body_n notwithstanding_o be_v visible_a still_o to_o be_v see_v and_o now_o to_o confirm_v this_o that_o i_o have_v say_v unto_o you_o st._n john_n himself_o shall_v make_v it_o good_a there_o be_v one_o of_o the_o disciple_n say_v he_o john_n 20._o and_o he_o speak_v of_o himself_o the_o other_o disciple_n he_o look_v into_o the_o

and_o indeed_o it_o have_v be_v a_o mockery_n of_o these_o woman_n for_o the_o angel_n if_o their_o eye_n be_v hold_v to_o bid_v they_o to_o see_v without_o their_o sight_n therefore_o you_o have_v the_o first_o point_n concern_v this_o sense_n of_o see_v sufficient_o demonstrate_v unto_o you_o come_v to_o our_o saviour_n christ_n as_o the_o angel_n say_v to_o the_o woman_n come_v and_o see_v so_o christ_n he_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n come_v and_o feel_v feel_v i_o be_o i_o this_o body_n be_v i_o feel_v my_o body_n search_v the_o wound_n etc._n etc._n so_o that_o now_o christ_n make_v

christ_n be_v palpable_o to_o be_v see_v come_v unto_o our_o faith_n the_o council_n of_o ephesus_n one_o of_o the_o first_o counsel_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n for_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o

wheresoever_o it_o be_v therefore_o may_v we_o come_v now_o to_o our_o resolution_n and_o conclude_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o mass_n you_o say_v it_o be_v invisible_a i_o say_v then_o it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n do_v you_o say_v it_o be_v impalpable_a it_o be_v not_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n do_v you_o say_v also_o it_o be_v both_o visible_a and_o invisible_a i_o return_v to_o the_o father_n and_o they_o say_v thus_o this_o be_v say_v they_o sottish_a why_o you_o may_v as_o well_o say_v that_o the_o same_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v finite_a and_o infinite_a it_o can_v be_v create_v and_o not_o create_v at_o once_o which_o the_o distinction_n of_o place_n can_v never_o reconcile_v oh_o but_o say_v they_o unto_o we_o this_o be_v natural_a reason_n this_o be_v reason_v like_o ethnic_n and_o pagan_n nay_o we_o have_v the_o authority_n which_o be_v the_o authority_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n we_o have_v the_o

wheresoever_o he_o be_v now_o the_o evidence_n be_v thus_o plain_a let_v we_o ascend_v a_o little_a high_o to_o know_v that_o what_o if_o some_o shall_v say_v that_o notwithstanding_o these_o evidence_n i_o doubt_v whether_o this_o doctrine_n be_v true_a or_o no_o that_o christ_n be_v rise_v our_o apostle_n saint_n paul_n have_v answer_v this_o argument_n long_o ago_o when_o he_o say_v thus_o if_o that_o christ_n be_v not_o rise_v we_o be_v false_a witness_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v a_o thing_n most_o incredible_a for_o they_o which_o be_v with_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n and_o see_v and_o hear_v and_o feel_v he_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n for_o christ_n and_o for_o this_o very_a article_n he_o be_v rise_v there_o saint_n paul_n speak_v
