wish_v rather_o that_o nothing_o at_o all_o may_v be_v make_v public_a that_o relate_v to_o the_o conference_n the_o substance_n of_o what_o n._n n._n desire_a i_o to_o take_v notice_n of_o be_v that_o our_o eat_v christ_n flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n do_v as_o real_o give_v everlasting_a life_n as_o almsgiving_n or_o any_o other_o good_a work●_n give_v it_o where_o the_o bare_a external_a action_n if_o separate_v from_o a_o good_a intention_n and_o principle_n be_v not_o acceptable_a to_o god_n so_o that_o we_o must_v necessary_o understand_v these_o word_n of_o our_o saviour_n with_o this_o addition_n of_o worthy_o that_o whoso_o eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n worthy_o have_v everlasting_a life_n for_o he_o say_v he_o do_v not_o deny_v but_o the_o believe_v the_o death_n of_o christ_n be_v necessary_a in_o communicate_v but_o it_o be_v not_o by_o faith_n only_o we_o receive_v his_o body_n and_o blood_n for_o as_o by_o faith_n we_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n yet_o it_o be_v not_o only_o by_o faith_n but_o also_o by_o baptism_n that_o we_o become_v the_o son_n of_o god_n so_o also_o christ_n say_v he_o that_o believe_v and_o be_v baptise_a shall_v be_v save_v yet_o this_o do_v not_o exclude_v repentance_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n from_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n therefore_o the_o universality_n of_o the_o expression_n whoso_o eat_v do_v not_o exclude_v the_o necessity_n of_o eat_v worthy_o that_o we_o may_v have_v everlasting_a life_n by_o it_o and_o so_o do_v conclude_v that_o since_o we_o believe_v we_o have_v all_o our_o faith_n in_o the_o holy_a scripture_n we_o must_v prove_v from_o some_o clear_a scripture_n by_o argument_n that_o consist_v of_o a_o major_a and_o minor_a that_o be_v either_o express_a word_n of_o scripture_n or_o equivalent_a to_o they_o that_o christ_n be_v no_o otherwise_o present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n than_o spiritual_o as_o he_o be_v receive_v by_o faith_n and_o add_v that_o it_o be_v impertinent_a to_o bring_v impossibility_n either_o from_o sense_n or_o reason_n against_o this_o if_o we_o bring_v no_o clear_a scripture_n against_o it_o to_o this_o he_o also_o add_v that_o when_o d._n s._n ask_v he_o by_o which_o of_o his_o sense_n he_o receive_v christ_n in_o the_o sacrament_n he_o answer_v that_o he_o may_v real_o receive_v christ_n body_n at_o his_o mouth_n though_o none_o of_o his_o sense_n can_v perceive_v he_o as_o a_o ●ole_n or_o pill_n be_v take_v in_o a_o syrup_n or_o any_o other_o liquor_n so_o that_o i_o real_o swallow_v it_o over_o though_o my_o sense_n do_v not_o taste_v it_o in_o like_a manner_n christ_n be_v receive_v under_o the_o accident_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n so_o that_o though_o our_o sense_n do_v not_o perceive_v it_o yet_o he_o be_v real_o take_v in_o at_o our_o mouth_n and_o go_v down_o into_o our_o stomach_n answer_n have_v now_o set_v down_o the_o strength_n of_o n.n._n his_o plea_n upon_o second_o thought_n i_o shall_v next_o examine_v it_o the_o stress_n of_o all_o lie_v in_o this_o whether_o we_o must_v necessary_o supply_v the_o word_n of_o christ_n with_o the_o

they_o food_n to_o their_o soul_n which_o if_o they_o do_v eat_v they_o shall_v never_o die_v for_o it_o shall_v give_v they_o life_n where_o it_o be_v apparent_a the_o bread_n and_o nourishment_n must_v be_v such_o as_o the_o life_n be_v which_o be_v internal_a and_o spiritual_a the_o other_o must_v be_v such_o also_o and_o verse_n 47._o he_o clear_o explain_v how_o that_o food_n be_v

it_o very_o reasonable_o follow_v that_o believe_v be_v the_o receive_v this_o food_n which_o be_v yet_o clear_a from_o verse_n 34._o where_o the_o jew_n have_v desire_v he_o evermore_o to_o give_v they_o that_o bread_n he_o answer_v verse_n 35._o i_o be_o the_o bread_n of_o life_n he_o that_o come_v to_o i_o shall_v never_o hunger_n and_o he_o that_o believe_v on_o i_o shall_v never_o thirst_v which_o no_o man_n that_o be_v not_o strange_o prepossess_v can_v consider_v but_o he_o must_v see_v it_o be_v a_o answer_n to_o their_o question_n and_o so_o in_o it_o he_o tell_v they_o that_o their_o come_n to_o he_o and_o believe_v be_v the_o mean_a of_o receive_v that_o bread_n and_o here_o it_o must_v be_v consider_v that_o christ_n call_v himself_o bread_n and_o say_v that_o a_o man_n must_v eat_v thereof_o which_o must_v be_v understand_v figurative_o and_o if_o figure_n be_v admit_v in_o some_o part_n of_o that_o discourse_n it_o be_v unjust_a to_o reject_v the_o apply_v the_o

be_v apply_v to_o nothing_o but_o the_o offering_n up_o himself_o on_o the_o cross._n this_o do_v as_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n startle_v the_o jew_n so_o they_o murmur_v and_o say_v how_o can_v this_o man_n give_v we_o his_o flesh_n to_o eat_v to_o which_o christ_n answer_n be_v so_o clear_a that_o it_o be_v indeed_o strange_a there_o shall_v remain_v any_o doubt_n about_o it_o he_o first_o tell_v they_o except_o they_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n they_o have_v no_o life_n in_o they_o where_o on_o the_o way_n mark_v that_o drink_v the_o blood_n be_v as_o necessary_a as_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o these_o word_n be_v expound_v of_o the_o sacrament_n can_v but_o discover_v they_o extreme_o guilty_a who_o do_v not_o drink_v the_o blood_n for_o suppose_v the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o blood_n concomitate_v the_o flesh_n be_v true_a yet_o even_o in_o that_o case_n they_o only_o eat_v the_o blood_n but_o can_v be_v say_v to_o drink_v the_o blood_n but_o from_o these_o word_n it_o be_v apparent_a christ_n must_v be_v speak_v chief_o if_o not_o only_o of_o the_o spiritual_a communicate_v for_o otherwise_o no_o man_n can_v be_v save_v that_o have_v not_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n the_o word_n be_v formal_a and_o positive_a and_o christ_n have_v make_v this_o a_o necessary_a condition_n of_o life_n i_o see_v not_o how_o we_o dare_v promise_v life_n to_o any_o that_o have_v never_o receive_v it_o and_o indeed_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n that_o those_o father_n who_o understand_v these_o word_n of_o the_o sacrament_n appoint_v it_o to_o be_v give_v to_o infant_n immediate_o after_o they_o be_v baptize_v for_o that_o be_v a_o necessary_a consequence_n that_o follow_v this_o exposition_n of_o our_o saviour_n word_n and_o yet_o the_o church_n of_o rome_n will_v not_o deny_v but_o if_o any_o die_v before_o he_o be_v adult_n or_o if_o a_o person_n convert_v be_v in_o such_o circumstance_n that_o it_o be_v not_o possible_a for_o he_o to_o receive_v the_o sacrament_n and_o so_o die_v without_o it_o he_o may_v have_v everlasting_a life_n therefore_o they_o must_v conclude_v that_o christ_n flesh_n may_v be_v eat_v by_o faith_n even_o without_o the_o sacrament_n again_o in_o the_o next_o verse_n he_o say_v whoso_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n have_v eternal_a life_n these_o word_n must_v be_v understand_v in_o the_o same_o sense_n they_o have_v in_o the_o former_a verse_n they_o be_v indeed_o the_o reverse_n of_o it_o therefore_o since_o there_o be_v no_o addition_n of_o worthy_o necessary_a to_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o former_a verse_n neither_o be_v it_o necessary_a in_o this_o but_o it_o must_v be_v conclude_v christ_n be_v here_o speak_v of_o a_o thing_n without_o which_o none_o can_v have_v life_n and_o by_o which_o all_o have_v life_n therefore_o when_o
we_o doubt_v not_o but_o we_o have_v bring_v proof_n which_o in_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o that_o be_v unprejudiced_a must_v demonstrate_v the_o truth_n of_o this_o our_o second_o proposition_n

great_a deal_n more_o to_o show_v from_o many_o undeniable_a evidence_n that_o the_o father_n be_v stranger_n to_o this_o new_a mystery_n it_o be_v clear_a from_o their_o write_n that_o they_o think_v christ_n be_v only_o spiritual_o present_a that_o we_o do_v eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n only_o by_o faith_n and_o not_o by_o our_o bodily_a sense_n and_o that_o the_o word_n of_o

eucharist_n may_v represent_v the_o whole_a history_n of_o christ_n from_o his_o incarnation_n to_o his_o assumption_n beside_o they_o always_o speak_v of_o christ_n as_o absent_v from_o we_o according_a to_o his_o flesh_n and_o human_a nature_n and_o only_o present_a in_o his_o divinity_n and_o by_o his_o spirit_n which_o they_o can_v not_o have_v say_v if_o they_o have_v think_v he_o every_o day_n present_a on_o their_o altar_n in_o his_o flesh_n and_o human_a nature_n for_o than_o he_o be_v more_o on_o earth_n than_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n since_o in_o heaven_n he_o be_v

to_o say_v he_o be_v absent_a if_o they_o believe_v he_o thus_o present_a but_o to_o give_v yet_o further_a evidence_n of_o the_o father_n not_o believe_v this_o doctrine_n let_v we_o but_o reflect_v a_o little_a on_o the_o consequence_n that_o necessary_o follow_v it_o which_o be_v 1._o that_o a_o body_n may_v be_v by_o the_o divine_a power_n in_o more_o place_n at_o once_o 2._o that_o a_o body_n
