because they haue no true Faith without which we can not be members of Iesus Christe nor consequently receiue life of him who is the only hed of the faithful F. What then doo the Infidels whē they receiue the Sacrament of the Supper C. They eat and drink their owne damnation in sted of receiuing the pledges and gages of their salnation F. Where must the true faithful séek Iesus Christe to inioy him and to haue the fruition of him C. In heauen For if we be risen again with Christe we must séek the things that are on hye where Christe is sitting on the right hand of God. F. Is not this the matter that the auneient Bishops vsed in the celebration of the Supper to say to the people Sursum corda that is lift vp your harts C. Yes And therfore the people answered Habemus ad Dominum We haue them to the lord Now that Iesus Christ is in Heauen and we on earth how can wée be ioyned vnite or made one with him C. By faith and by the woork of the holy Ghost whiche can wel ioyne and knit that that is otherwise seperated by distance of place F. What shall we then say of them that séek Iesus Christe in the Elements of the Supper and say that there is a Transubstantiation of the bread and wine into the body and blood of Iesus Christe C. They erre diuers and sundry waies F How so C. First they speake against thrée Articles of our Beleef that is that Iesus Christ is ascended vp into Heauen that he sitteth on the right hand of God and that he shall not depart from thence til he come to iudge vothe the quick and the dead F. What more C. By their transubstantiation also they abolish the signe of the Sacrament that is to say the bread and the wine and consequently they abolish the Sacrament of the Supper which cānot be without the signe F. This doctrine of Transubstantiation hath it no other absurdities C Yes for it giueth holy thingꝭ to swine and graniteth that the Insidels may eat Iesus Christe Moreouer it maketh men Idotaters and causeth them to worship the Sactament F. Say on C. It maketh also the glorious body of Iesus Christe subiect to rotting and filth Tobe short it abolisheth the true humanity of the sonne of God making him an infinit body and such an one as is in all places F. But hath not Iesus Christe said that he would be with vs vnto the ende of the world and where as two or three should bee gathered togither in his name there hee would be in the middest of them C. Yes But these places must be vnderstood of the presence of his diuinitie and not of his humanitie F. How canst thou prooue that C. By the witnasse of Iesus Christe him self whiche saith that wee shall alwayes haue the poore with vs but him we shal not haue alwaies and S. Peeter saith the Heauen must contain Iesus Christe vntil the restoring of all things F. Therfore thou wilt conclude that although Iesus Christ by his diuinitie and his holy Spirite be alwaies with vs yet notwithstanding touching his humanitie he can be but in one certain place that is in Heauen C. Yea as S. Augustine also witnesseth saying Vntil heauen be ended the Lord shal be alwaies on hie But the trueth of the Lord is also with vs For his body wherein he was raised must needs be in one certain place but his trueth is spread throughout F. What is the summe of this true faith which seeketh not Iesus Christe in Earth but in Heauen C. I beléeue in God whiche hath created me I beléeue in Iesus Christe which hath redeemed me from sin from Sathan from Hel and from death I beleeue also in the holy Ghost which hath sanctified me F. Why saiest thou perticulerly I béeleeue and not we beleeue C. Because that euery one must examin himself and liue by his owne faith and not by the faith of other men F. How must that be doon C. When we doo euery man particulerly for him self apply Iesus Christe vnto him self with all his blessings and riches F. What riches are there in Iesꝰ Christ C There is saluation for the lost life for the dead trueth for the liers wisdoine for the ignoraunt Iustice for the sinners sanctification ctification for the impure ones redemption for the captiues F. Must we therfore by faith applye all these things vnto vs séeing we are by nature lost dead lyers ignorant sinners vnclene and captiues C. Yea for Iesus Christe hath taken vpon him all our miseryes and wretche ones to giue and communicate vnto vs all his blessings and riches as also in deéd they be distributed vnto vs in his holy Supper F. Let vs now speak of the second parte of our duty towards God which consisteth in repentance and first of all what repentance is C. It is a sorowfulnes and hafred of euil and a looue of that that is good F. Tobe sory and gréeued for our wicked nesse is it not necessary to knowe it C. Yes F. How doo we know the euil the is in vs C. First of all by our beginning for that that is borne of flesh is flesh Secondly because we transgresse the law of God which is the rule of all perfection Iustice Third ly by the ordinary afflictions whiche God sendeth vs because of our sinnes F. Haue we not also the Sacraments a glasse to beholde our sinnes in C. We haue so For is we were not sinners we should haue no néed of remission of our sinnes in Baptisme And if we were not in death it were in vain for vs to come to the Supper to séek life and saluation in Iesus Christe F. When we knowe our sinnes ought we not confesse them before God C. Yes According to the example of Dauid and the Publican if we wil be iustified before God. F. Why should we confesse and acknow sedge our sinnes before God C. To obfain parden and ful remission as God is iust and faithful to doo it F. For what end and purpose dooth God pardon vs our sinnes C For thrée principall ends F. What are they C. First to this end that we should reconcile our selues to our enemyes secondly that we should forgiue them thyrdly that we should abstain from sinne and liue to righteousnes F. Is there nothing in the Supper that exhorteth vs to flée and hate ●m C. Yes for in that that wee breake the bread of the Supper it sheweth vs that our sinnes did brute and breake the Sonne of God with the sorowes of death F. What foloweth then C. That we should condemne and detest our sinnes as the Authoures of the death of the Sonne of God. F. Is it sufficient to abstaine from euill and not to doo good C. No for euery trée that bringeth not foorth good frute is cut down and cast into the fyre And therfore the naughtie Sernant was cast into
