hath not the sone hath not life Vnto the which saingis iustely agreeth euē the same that s. Paul ꝓpowned with a meruelous euidence vnto the Ephesiens God to haue rehersed and as in brief some brought it and in Christe concluded so that nowe oute of this same only Christ as it were oute of the barne of all goodnes men myght fetche the thynge which before as it were by pece mele was fetched out of many sondry partes of scripture yea and euen the Lorde Iesus himselfe in Mathew dampneth and techeth vs to auoid and abhor these men who soeuer thei be which deuyde the myndes of the faithfull and induce them vnto many and dyuerse thinges as necessary or profitable vnto thobteyning of saluaciō For if any mā saith he tell you Lo here is Christ or there is he beleue him not For ther shall aryse false anoynted and false prophetes shall shewe forth tokens prodygiouse wonders so that if it were possible euen the very elect might be brought in to erroure Math. xxiiij Take heed sayth Christe for I haue now told it you before If therfor they tel you Lo he is in the deserte solitary places of religiō go not once forth or say see he is in the secrete places as in the p̄uey pixe and secrete ciborye beleue it not What thē shall the faithfull soule do He shall depende of the mouthe and grace of the onlye Lorde which hath cōmaunded his chosen tobe ware and auoide these maner abhominable deceytes of men sondrelye knittinge smytinge and diuidyng into many opiniōs the hertes of the faithfull with this wyked scysme and hath set forth before vs himself onely the teacher of the trwth and in fewe wordes thexpiacion of synnes purging from the same euen the mercy seat of grace and forgiuenes in euery necessite to be sought and to flye vnto him For this is euē he that same master geuen vnto all the worlde whych also hath dyed for vs yea and euen he that is rysen agene vnto life and sitteth on the ryght hande of god there makinge continuall intercession for vs being that onely all alone perpetuall preist with onelye one sacrifyce for euer finisshing and perfet making them which ar sanctified Euery man I suppose clerely vnderstondith and perceyueth it wel that in and for Christe the father hath geuen vs all thinges All men see what maner teching was the doctrine of the Lorde cōcerning owr saluacion wherby we be iustified and who is the life of the faithfull a doctrine I saye which is short and brief but yet clare manifest full and perfet in euery parte Hitherto perteynith also his tradicion of the benefittes good will to be geuē forth of the prayers of the faithfull and of fasting and chastysing of the bodye euē siche doctrine as is bothe brief and cleare as ye may see in Mat. vi cap. hauing nether any difficultye nor burden Which tradicion and doctrine of christe notwithstōding yet apereth intolerable vnable to be expressed vnderstādē of the laye peple if thou estemest it of the disputaciōs of sophisters take it at the subtile setting forth of the scolastical scolders Here folowe all the Sacraments that Christe delyuered to his chirche Now as towching the sacraments very fewe they were which the Lorde commytted vnto his chirche euen onely these tweyne baptisme and the signe or remembraunce of his body and blode For as for Iohn his baptisme he dyspiced it not but with the s●●e himselfe was sanctified And eftesone after he sending his disciples into all the worlde to preache his gospell and to declare it vnto all naciōs and gentyles sayd See that ye be going to teache all the gentyles or nacions who soeuer thei be baptising them in to the name of the father the sone the holy gost In which institucion thou shalt neuer fynde any thing ether harde or heuye or not playnly spoken and expressed And as for himself whiles he lyued vpō the erth and layd forth the holsome preching of the gospell baptysed noman but his disciples he commanded to baptise For the worde of god is more beter and more preciouse then the sacrmentes yea and faith its elfe is more noble then the sacramētes Hebre. xi For with oute faith it is vnpossible for eny man to please god And with out faith sacramentes may be ministred but ꝓfit shall thei not Furthermore the souper the Lorde himselfe did firste institute and celebrate it in no costely aparell nor in any 〈◊〉 〈…〉 as thei saye ornowerīg 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 his table with any ryche iewelle 〈◊〉 chalesses images candle stikis 〈◊〉 c̄ There were no glitering golden no● syluer sewtes nor preciouse vessels no 〈◊〉 made onerouse charcheable nor harde for any man but all was playne simple easy to be had moderate sobre decēt and honest For Christe in that sober souper with brede and wyne bothe testifyed and preched vnto vs the mysterye and benefit of owr redempcion and commended and lefte vnto his peple the remembrance of his deth and the cōcorde and mutual amyte vnuiolable and perpetuall amongst vs to endewre Nether did he here spinosely that is to saye thornisshely sherpely perplexly with confusion and accombrance of owr wittis and playne vnderstanding subtily and magistrally as the dunre men speke bring in these dede dreames of thys holy sacrament which were and ar wōte now a days to be disputed in scholis vnyuersites and freerly in doctorissh popissh pulpittis As whether there be the very reall ● substanciall body of Christe really naturally substancially corporally as longe as brode as thyke as heuey I can not tell what nor howe as he hāged on the crosse And agene what into what thing is cōuerted whether brede is turned into nothinge or in to Christus body what substance abideth still and remayneth what substance is loste or ceasseth to be and in so ceassing from his owne substance whether it be nothing at all the accidents that is to saye whightnes lightnes heuynes taste breking baking c̄ whether thei there abide still with out substance and whether he be whol with all his membres in the wholl sacramēt or brede and wholl in euery peese broken whether one bodye may be in heuen and erth and in a thousande places at once And howe so grete a bodye may be wholl in so lytle a crome of breade And whether there be his gloriouse immortal impassible bodye or his body mortall and passible as it was in his souper sittynge with his disciples But Christe at his souper taughte thē playnely the ferme faith in and to beleue in god he disputed of brotherlye loue clerely and treated of the remission of synnes of pacience and constancye in aduersite and preched them of the adsewered certayn hope of that blessed lyfe to come For these thynges ar holsome and aperteyning to owr saluaciō to the knowlege of god these thingis requyreth he of his peple Whē owr Lorde Christe
