that_o christ_n offer_v himself_o but_o once_o bloody_o which_o be_v upon_o the_o cross_n and_o but_o one_o substantial_a host_n because_o the_o same_o substantial_a body_n which_o be_v offer_v upon_o

do_v this_o the_o same_o which_o he_o then_o do_v when_o he_o take_v bread_n and_o make_v it_o his_o body_n and_o give_v it_o to_o god_n for_o we_o as_o i_o shall_v show_v more_o at_o large_a

peace_n and_o society_n with_o god_n and_o among_o themselves_o as_o i_o have_v prove_v in_o the_o 2._o chapter_n and_o therefore_o this_o can_v not_o be_v take_v away_o by_o our_o saviour_n the_o

of_o god_n who_o live_v after_o the_o passion_n of_o christ_n stand_v in_o need_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n in_o their_o communion_n to_o represent_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o saviour_n upon_o the_o
