hereto_o i_o can_v add_v some_o reason_n for_o y_o e_o excellency_n of_o baptism_n i_o tro●e_v it_o be_v more_o to_o be_v get_v then_o to_o be_v nourish_v as_o for_o the_o excellent_a miracle_n of_o

of_o the_o supper_n it_o be_v a_o plain_a sign_n of_o antichrist_n reason_n to_o deny_v the_o substance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o be_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n after_o consecration_n for_o in_o so_o do_v and_o grant_v transubstantiation_n the_o property_n of_o the_o humane_a nature_n of_o christ_n be_v deny_v for_o it_o be_v not_o of_o the_o humane_a nature_n but_o of_o the_o divine_a

that_o eat_v he_o which_o the_o wicked_a have_v not_o although_o they_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n he_o that_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n say_v christ_n shall_v live_v for_o evermore_o therefore_o they_o

and_o receyve_v it_o and_o so_o of_o this_o bread_n think_v i_o that_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o rather_o consider_v the_o mind_n of_o thy_o lover_n christ_n than_o the_o thing_n which_o thou_o sée_v yea_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o altogether_o consider_v christ_n mind_n thou_o deal_v unhonest_o and_o strumpetlike_a with_o he_o for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o strumpet_n to_o consider_v the_o

but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n forsooth_o as_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v best_a know_v by_o his_o word_n so_o by_o christ_n word_n shall_v we_o know_v his_o mind_n now_o his_o

bread_n and_o wine_n be_v one_o with_o your_o nature_n and_o substance_n after_o you_o have_v eat_v and_o drink_v it_o howbeit_o in_o this_o it_o differ_v that_o you_o by_o faith_n be_v as_o it_o be_v change_v into_o christ_n and_o not_o christ_n into_o you_o as_o the_o bread_n be_v for_o by_o faith_n he_o dwell_v in_o we_o and_o we_o in_o he_o god_n give_v we_o faith_n in_o the_o use_n of_o this_o sacrament_n to_o receive_v christ_n as_o he_o give_v we_o hand_n to_o receive_v the_o element_n symbol_n and_o visible_a sacrament_n god_n grant_v we_o not_o to_o prepare_v our_o tooth_n and_o belly_n as_o saint_n augustine_n say_v but_o rather_o of_o his_o mercy_n he_o prepare_v and_o give_v we_o true_a and_o lively_a faith_n to_o use_v this_o and_o all_o other_o his_o ordinance_n to_o his_o

let_v we_o come_v and_o look_v on_o the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n namely_o institute_v wherefore_o the_o lord_n do_v institute_v this_o sacrament_n our_o nature_n be_v very_o oblivious_a of_o god_n and_o of_o all_o his_o benefit_n and_o again_o it_o be_v very_o full_a of_o dubitation_n and_o doubt_v of_o god_n love_n and_o of_o his_o kindness_n therefore_o to_o the_o end_n these_o two_o thing_n may_v be_v something_o reform_v and_o holpen_v in_o we_o the_o lord_n have_v institute_v this_o sacrament_n i_o mean_v that_o we_o may_v have_v in_o memory_n the_o principal_a benefit_n of_o all_o benefit_n that_o be_v christ_n death_n and_o that_o we_o may_v be_v on_o all_o part_n assure_v of_o communion_n with_o christ_n of_o all_o kindness_n the_o great_a that_o ever_o god_n do_v give_v unto_o man_n the_o former_a to_o be_v the_o end_n wherefore_o christ_n do_v institute_v this_o sacrament_n he_o himself_o do_v teach_v we_o say_v do_v you_o this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o the_o latter_a the_o apostle_n do_v no_o less_o set_v forth_o in_o say_v the_o bread_n which_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o partake_n or_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o we_o bless_v the_o partake_n or_o communion_n of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n so_o that_o it_o appear_v the_o end_n wherefore_o this_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v be_v and_o be_v for_o the_o reformation_n and_o help_n of_o our_o oblivion_n of_o that_o which_o we_o shall_v never_o forget_v and_o of_o our_o dubitation_n of_o that_o whereof_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v most_o certain_a concern_v the_o former_a namely_o of_o the_o memory_n of_o christ_n death_n what_o commodity_n it_o bring_v with_o it_o i_o will_v purpesely_a for_o time_n sake_n omit_v only_o a_o little_a will_v i_o speak_v of_o the_o commodity_n come_v unto_o we_o by_o the_o partake_n and_o communion_n we_o have_v with_o christ_n first_o it_o teach_v we_o that_o no_o man_n can_v communicate_v with_o christ_n but_o the_o same_o must_v needs_o communicate_v with_o god_n grace_n &_o favour_n where_o through_o sin_n be_v forgive_v therefore_o this_o commodity_n come_v herethrough_a namely_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v certain_a of_o the_o remission_n and_o pardon_n of_o our_o sin_n the_o which_o thing_n we_o may_v also_o perceive_v by_o the_o cup_n in_o that_o it_o be_v call_v the_o cup_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n to_o which_o testament_n be_v proper_o attribute_v on_o god_n behalf_n oblivion_n or_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n first_o i_o say_v therefore_o the_o supper_n be_v institute_v to_o this_o end_n that_o he_o which_o worthy_o receive_v shall_v be_v certain_a of_o the_o remission_n and_o pardon_n of_o his_o sin_n and_o iniquity_n how_o many_o and_o great_a soever_o they_o be_v how_o great_a a_o benefit_n this_o be_v only_o they_o know_v which_o have_v feel_v the_o burden_n of_o sin_n which_o of_o all_o heavy_a thing_n be_v the_o most_o heavy_a again_o no_o man_n can_v communicate_v with_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n but_o the_o same_o must_v communicate_v with_o his_o spirit_n for_o christ_n body_n be_v no_o dead_a carcase_n now_o he_o that_o communicate_v with_o christ_n spirit_n communicate_v as_o with_o holiness_n righteousness_n innocence_n and_o immortality_n and_o with_o all_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n body_n so_o do_v he_o with_o god_n and_o all_o his_o glory_n and_o with_o the_o church_n and_o all_o the_o good_a that_o ever_o it_o or_o any_o member_n of_o it_o have_v be_v have_v or_o shall_v have_v this_o be_v the_o communion_n of_o saint_n which_o we_o believe_v in_o our_o creed_n which_o have_v wait_v on_o it_o remission_n of_o sin_n resurrection_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o life_n everlasting_a to_o the_o end_n that_o we_o shall_v be_v most_o assure_v and_o certain_a of_o all_o these_o christ_n our_o saviour_n do_v institute_v this_o his_o supper_n and_o therefore_o will_v have_v we_o to_o use_v it_o so_o that_o there_o be_v no_o man_n i_o trow_v which_o see_v not_o great_a cause_n of_o give_v thanks_n to_o god_n for_o this_o holy_a sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n whereby_o if_o we_o worthy_o receive_v it_o we_o ought_v to_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o our_o sin_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v be_v pardon_v clear_o that_o we_o be_v regenerate_v and_o bear_v again_o into_o a_o lively_a hope_n into_o a_o inheritance_n immortal_a undefiled_a and_o which_o can_v never_o wither_v away_o that_o we_o be_v in_o the_o fellowship_n of_o god_n the_o father_n the_o son_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o we_o be_v god_n temple_n at_o one_o with_o god_n &_o god_n at_o one_o with_o we_o that_o we_o be_v member_n of_o christ_n church_n and_o fellow_n with_o the_o saint_n in_o all_o felicity_n that_o we_o be_v certain_a of_o immortality_n in_o soul_n and_o body_n and_o so_o of_o eternal_a life_n than_o which_o thing_n what_o can_v be_v more_o demand_v christ_n be_v we_o and_o we_o be_v
