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
vtter darknesse not because he had wickedly spent his Maisters Talent but because he vsed it not nor imployed it F. It is therfore requisit that euery one according to the talent which he hath receiued of God doo glorify him in that vocation wherunto he is called C. Yea. If we wil enter as the good seruant into the ioy of our Maister F. To doo this goodnes must we not haue knoweledge C. Yes F. By what meanes C. By the law of God and generally by all the holy Scriptures whiche shew vnto vs what the good woorks are whiche God requireth of vs. F. Are we not exhorted to the Supper to liue wel C. Yes that we are For in that that we are made one with Iesꝰ Christe made flesh of his flesh and bones of his bones further more in that that we are partakers of his holinesse and innocency it is to this end that we should be holy as he is holy F. What more C. In that also that we méet and agrée in the holy Church which is the communion of Saints in that that by the opperation and woork of the holy Ghost we call vpon one father which is holy to be short in that that we hear his holy woord and receine his holy Sacraments it ought also to mooue vs to holynesse F. This holynesse which God requireth of vs is it perfit in this world C. No. As the examples of the Saincts shew vs And moreouer vnto the last breth of our life we shall haue alwaies need to aske of God that he would forgiue vs our sinnes through his Sonne Iesus Christe F. And this holynesse which is not perfit can it please God which is parfit C. Yea. For so much as by the operation of the holy Ghost and by faith we obey the commaundements of God by Iesus Christ whiche couereth with the Cloke of his righteousnesse all our wants and imperfections F. Let vs come to the third parte of our duty towards God. C. We haue said that it consisteth in an acknowledging F. What acknowledging C. Of all the benefits which we haue receiued and receiue daily at the hand of God and espetially of the benefit of redemption by Iesus Christe F. Is it not for this cause that the auncients called the holy Supper Eucharistia that is to say gratefulnesse good grace gining of thanks C. It is so F. Is this acknowledging necessary for all them the are partakers of the Lordꝭ table C. Yea. As Iesus Christe hath she wed vs an example and moreouer hath commaunded vs to celebrate the Supper in remembrance of him F. What are the conditions of this acknowledging C. There are foure principall F. Which are the two first C. First it ought tobe giuen to one onely God by his only Sonne Iesus Christe Se condly it ought not tobe giuen not onely by mouth but also by hart F. Dooth it folowe héereby that all they which call vpon Saints giue not thanks for their saluation to one onely God by his Sonne Iesus Christe are gilty C. Yea. And they also erre which are Hipocrits praying in an vnknowen tung honouring God onely with their lips and not with their harts F Tel me the two last conditions of the acknowledging C. That is it ought to bee doon at all times that is to say aswel in aduersitie as in prosperitie To be short it ought to be practised not onely priuately but also publiquely and in the middest of the congregation of the faithful F. Seeing that we haue spoken inough of our duty towards God let vs now speak of our duty towards our neighbour C. It consisteth in true Charitie and brotherly vnitie whiche doo necessarily folowe faith and the true seruice of God. F. What is the true forme rule of charity C. That we looue our neighbours as our selues or that we looue one an other euen as Christe looued vs. F. How did Christe looue vs C. He looued vs when wee were his enemyes and when we were wicked and abominable before God. F. Haue we not héerein an example to looue our enemies although they be wicked and naught C. Yes For in this part we must be agréeable to the image of our hed Iesus Christe F. And this looue wherewithall Christe looued vs was it fained or did it continue but for a time C. No for he looued vs not in word only but in déed He looued vs not only for a time but euen to the end vnto death euen to the sheding of his pretious blood for vs. F. And ought we not to folow him héerin C. Yes To eschew all dissembling inconstancy whē soeuer we debate of loouing our brethren and shewing our loue by déed F. Beside the example of Christe are we not exhorted to this true looue in the Super C. Yes F. By what reasons C. First in that that we doo all communicate togither at the Supper that we eat of the self same meate that we call vpon one self same Father that we haue one self same hed Iesus Christe that we are all quickened by his holy spirit it ought to stir vs vp to true looue and Brotherly charitie F. What more C. The making of the bread and wine of the Supper ought to exhort vs also vnto it F. How so C. Because that euen as the Bread is made of many cornes which are vnite to gither in one lump of Bread and as the Wine is made of many clusters of grapes which are afterwarde put togither in one licour so must the Christians whiche are many in them selues be ioyned togither by looue in one self same body whiche is the churche of God. F. This looue which we are exhorted vn to by so many reasons in the Supper can it be in them whiche bere malice and batred one against an other C. No. And therfore we must forget all iniuryes and reconcile our selues to them which haue offended vs and forgiue them with all our hart euen as wee would that God should forgiue vs. F. May we conclude by all that hath béen héertofore spoken that such as doo not their duty aswel towarde God as towarde their neighbour ought not to be receyued to the Supper C. Yea and therfore the true minister of Iesus Christe must take good héed that hée giue not that that is holy to such as are open ly knowen tobe Dogs and Swine F. The father of all mercy defend vs in such sort through his holy spirit with faith and repentance that we may publish his praises with a sincere affection and looue our neighbours as Iesus Christe hath looued vs that we come not to his holy Table to our damnation as Infidels and impenitents doo but rather to our saluation béeing assured that we inioy as truely eternall life with all riches and treasures which are in Iesus Christe as we inioy the Elements whiche he appointed vs for infallible witnesses of euerlasting life in the same his welbelooued Sonne Iesus Christe our LORD C.
