by_o faith_n shall_v give_v and_o resign_v up_o ourselves_o whole_o to_o god_n our_o maker_n and_o behold_v for_o this_o cause_n do_v god_n justly_o require_v his_o people_n &_o command_v they_o in_o

twelve_o be_v that_o if_o jesus_n christ_n be_v bodily_a eat_v there_o be_v no_o necessity_n to_o prove_v &_o to_o examine_v our_o faith_n or_o our_o conscience_n when_o we_o will_v prepare_v

it_o be_v apt_a to_o digest_v it_o as_o we_o do_v in_o all_o other_o corporal_a meat_n the_o thirteen_o be_v that_o we_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n even_o in_o the_o self_n &_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o apostle_n have_v do_v long_o before_o us._n but_o they_o do_v not_o eat_v the_o same_o corporal_o for_o so_o man_n may_v have_v see_v the_o apostle_n

that_o no_o more_o do_v we_o eat_v his_o flesh_n corporal_o if_o any_o will_v say_v that_o god_n by_o a_o miracle_n provide_v that_o this_o eat_n be_v not_o discern_v with_o bodily_a eye_n to_o the_o end_n it_o shall_v not_o be_v abhor_v i_o answer_v that_o in_o this_o case_n the_o only_a conceit_n and_o inward_a imagination_n be_v sufficient_a as_o we_o read_v of_o s._n peter_n who_o in_o a_o vision_n abhor_v the_o eat_n of_o those_o creature_n 10._o act._n 10._o that_o be_v in_o the_o law_n forbid_v to_o be_v eat_v the_o fourteen_o be_v that_o it_o be_v plain_o forbid_v in_o genesis_n 6._o gen._n 6._o to_o eat_v flesh_n with_o the_o life_n thereof_o that_o be_v with_o the_o blood_n thereof_o whereupon_o it_o may_v be_v infer_v that_o jesus_n christ_n who_o be_v not_o come_v to_o abolish_v the_o law_n but_o to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n have_v not_o enjoin_v we_o a_o thing_n so_o strict_o forbid_v &_o even_o more_o abominable_a than_o murder_n and_o the_o reason_n allege_v by_o s._n augustine_n to_o show_v that_o all_o the_o place_n wherein_o jesus_n christ_n do_v exhort_v his_o disciple_n to_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o to_o drink_v his_o blood_n be_v use_v by_o way_n of_o figure_a and_o shadow_v speech_n i_o will_v turn_v the_o place_n of_o s._n augustine_n in_o his_o book_n of_o christian_a doctrine_n to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o reader_n may_v understand_v his_o judgement_n in_o this_o matter_n if_o there_o be_v any_o sentence_n or_o any_o manner_n of_o speech_n in_o the_o scripture_n say_v he_o that_o seem_v to_o command_v any_o outrage_n or_o wickedness_n or_o contrary_o to_o forbid_v any_o bountiful_a and_o liberal_a action_n the_o same_o be_v speak_v by_o way_n of_o a_o figure_n but_o this_o sentence_n follow_v 9_o joh._n 9_o except_o you_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n you_o have_v no_o life_n in_o you_o seem_v to_o command_v a_o horrible_a and_o detestable_a case_n wherefore_o it_o follow_v that_o this_o be_v a_o figure_n by_o the_o which_o he_o command_v we_o to_o be_v partaker_n and_o to_o have_v communion_n in_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n of_o the_o lord_n and_o for_o the_o profit_n and_o comfort_n of_o our_o conscience_n to_o enclose_v this_o point_n within_o the_o most_o secret_a corner_n of_o our_o memory_n that_o his_o humanity_n be_v crucify_v and_o wound_v for_o our_o cause_n this_o be_v s._n augustine_n his_o judgement_n which_o i_o have_v turn_v word_n for_o word_n the_o fifteen_o be_v that_o we_o can_v receive_v the_o corporal_a eat_n of_o the_o flesh_n of_o jesus_n christ_n but_o we_o must_v admit_v &_o allow_v his_o body_n to_o be_v infinite_a which_o thing_n entire_o derogate_v from_o the_o truth_n of_o his_o nature_n and_o by_o the_o same_o mean_n utter_o overthrow_v the_o chief_a ground_n &_o most_o principal_a foundation_n of_o our_o faith_n for_o except_o we_o believe_v he_o to_o have_v be_v man_n and_o the_o son_n of_o man_n in_o all_o thing_n our_o sin_n and_o imperfection_n only_o reserve_v like_v unto_o we_o whereupon_o shall_v we_o build_v our_o assurance_n and_o persuasion_n that_o he_o have_v redeem_v and_o ransom_v our_o nature_n and_o that_o he_o be_v our_o high_a priest_n which_o have_v compassion_n upon_o all_o our_o infirmity_n further_o it_o may_v be_v allege_v that_o we_o can_v devise_v to_o speak_v any_o thing_n more_o favourable_a and_o available_a for_o the_o herise_n of_o martion_n and_o apollinaris_n the_o one_o of_o who_o maintain_v that_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v a_o fantastic_a body_n and_o the_o other_o say_v that_o it_o be_v a_o heavenly_a body_n as_o the_o foresay_a corporal_a eat_n of_o the_o flesh_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v heavenly_a the_o sixteenth_o be_v that_o if_o we_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o jesus_n christ_n bodily_a the_o substance_n of_o our_o body_n must_v of_o necessity_n be_v augment_v thereby_o and_o nourish_v even_o as_o it_o be_v by_o other_o corporal_a meat_n that_o we_o receive_v a_o thing_n whole_o and_o altogether_o contrary_a to_o experience_n for_o the_o body_n of_o the_o faithful_a notwithstanding_o the_o eat_v only_o of_o his_o flesh_n &_o drink_v of_o his_o blood_n must_v of_o necessity_n perish_v and_o wither_v away_o except_o they_o be_v nourish_v and_o preserve_v by_o some_o other_o food_n or_o else_o by_o some_o other_o mean_a the_o seventeenth_o be_v that_o as_o we_o do_v not_o eat_v corporal_a meat_n spiritual_o even_o so_o we_o can_v not_o eat_v according_a to_o this_o proportion_n thing_n spiritual_a carnal_o the_o eighteen_o be_v that_o if_o we_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o jesus_n christ_n corporal_o so_o little_a a_o body_n as_o he_o be_v be_v so_o break_v in_o piece_n and_o part_v shall_v not_o suffice_v so_o many_o as_o by_o eat_v be_v make_v partaker_n thereof_o wherefore_o we_o may_v safe_o infer_v upon_o all_o these_o reason_n that_o the_o mean_v whereby_o we_o be_v join_v to_o jesus_n christ_n

7.26_o heb._n 7.26_o again_o the_o quality_n and_o condition_n of_o the_o priest_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v these_o that_o he_o be_v holy_a innocent_a unspotted_a separate_v from_o sinner_n

of_o flesh_n be_v flesh_n that_o be_v to_o say_v defile_v &_o sinful_a as_o their_o parent_n be_v and_o therefore_o uncapable_a of_o the_o priesthood_n again_o the_o priest_n must_v be_v eternal_a and_o for_o ever_o after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n 7.3_o heb._n 7.3_o that_o be_v to_o say_v as_o it_o be_v expound_v by_o the_o apostle_n without_o father_n without_o mother_n without_o

he_o need_v not_o daily_a to_o offer_v up_o sacrifice_n for_o his_o own_o sin_n as_o the_o priest_n of_o levi_n do_v need_v from_o which_o necessity_n there_o be_v none_o that_o can_v be_v free_v and_o deliver_v but_o only_o jesus_n christ_n insomuch_o as_o by_o reason_n of_o sin_n abide_v in_o they_o and_o of_o infirmity_n wherewith_o they_o be_v enclose_v and_o compass_v they_o have_v need_v

they_o must_v needs_o be_v priest_n after_o one_o of_o these_o two_o order_n to_o wit_n of_o levi_n or_o of_o melchisedech_n but_o they_o can_v be_v after_o the_o order_n of_o levi_n because_o all_o the_o ancient_a ceremony_n yea_o and_o the_o law_n itself_o that_o command_v they_o be_v now_o abolish_v so_o it_o shall_v remain_v that_o they_o must_v be_v after_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n 110._o psal_n 110._o but_o that_o be_v no_o more_o possible_a they_o the_o other_o because_o they_o shall_v be_v priest_n for_o ever_o which_o be_v not_o incident_a to_o any_o mortal_a man_n again_o the_o priest_n must_v be_v more_o worthy_a &_o honourable_a than_o the_o sacrifice_n that_o he_o do_v offer_v for_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o whatsoever_o it_o be_v can_v please_v god_n but_o only_o in_o

sacrifice_n than_o cain_n meaning_n thereby_o that_o the_o price_n and_o worthiness_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n proceed_v hence_o that_o he_o which_o offer_v be_v faithful_a be_v by_o faith_n acceptable_a to_o god_n whereupon_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o if_o the_o mass_n priest_n be_v true_a sacrifice_a priest_n and_o do_v offer_v jesus_n christ_n in_o their_o mass_n as_o they_o pretend_v that_o they_o shall_v be_v of_o more_o worthiness_n and_o honour_n than_o he_o and_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v in_o the_o favour_n of_o god_n but_o by_o their_o credit_n and_o favour_n last_o whosoever_o be_v priest_n by_o the_o same_o mean_a be_v become_v mediator_n between_o god_n &_o man_n for_o the_o end_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n be_v to_o procure_v the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o so_o consequent_o to_o reconcile_v man_n unto_o god_n so_o if_o the_o massepriest_n can_v be_v sacrifice_a priest_n they_o shall_v also_o be_v mediator_n which_o they_o can_v be_v for_o even_o as_o there_o be_v but_o one_o god_n so_o there_o be_v but_o one_o mediator_n between_o god_n and_o man_n and_o thus_o you_o see_v by_o these_o proof_n that_o the_o name_n the_o title_n and_o dignity_n of_o priesthood_n can_v belong_v to_o any_o other_o then_o to_o jesus_n christ_n and_o without_o great_a and_o monstrous_a blasphemy_n that_o we_o can_v attribute_v the_o same_o to_o any_o other_o
