vp the very body and blood of Christ to god the father for the sinnes of the liuing of the dead we receiue it not but condemne it to the pit of hell from whence it came For Christ offered vp himself but once And if they be priests properly to offer him they must likewise be the murtherers of him forasmuch as when he was offered he was killed Moreouer they make his al-susficient sacrifice to bee vnperfect which notwithstanding maketh vs perfect and themselues to be after a sort mediators betweene god and man and so depriue themselus of the sweet mediation of Christ. Thus much of the gainefull Marchandize of Masses vsed in the church of Rome and of the oblation or rather abhomination thereof These and many other errors are discouered and opened in this Treatise which I commend vnto thee good christian reader desiring thy farther instruction in the truth I know it cannot but grieue thee to hear of contentions and dissentions especially in the matters of God wherein wee should al think and speak one thing Wherefore thou must remember that it cannot be auoided but offences wil com but wo be to him by whom they come The apostle saith There must be euen haeresies among you that they which are among you may be knowne For my part I haue labored to doe no more then to quench the fire which other haue kindled and to plucke vp the weeds which other haue planted The successe of this worke I commit to the Lord the examination and fruit thereof to thee Read it with iudgement Try al things and hold fast that which is good Lay al partialy aside and weigh the doctrine set before thee with the ballance of the Sanctuary The Lord of heauen and earth bring vs all to be of one mind and of one hart in the truth and giue vs the spirit of vnderstanding that we may be able to discerne light from darkenes and truth from errour and that we may not be caried away with euery 〈◊〉 of false doctrine but that we may knowe what is the good and acceptable wil of God and may grow vnto a perfect man in Christ Iesus to whose mercifull direction and protection I commend thee Amen FINIS The Principles of Christian religion set downe in Questions and answers shortly for the remembrance and plainely for the vnderstanding of all persons requisite to be learned and knowne before they be admitted to the Lords Supper Q.

a Sacrament THe outward parts of a Sacrament are such things as vnder a certain similitude likenes do represent and signifie heauenly things to assure vs they are as truely present and offred vs as we beholde with our cies and receiue with our hands the earthly things giuen vnto vs. The outward parts of a Sacrament are in number foure First the Minister Secondly the word of institution Thirdly the element Fourthly the receiuer All these and euery one of them are needfull to the being and nature of a Sacrament take them away or any of them and you take away the substance and bring in a nullity of the Sacrament If ther be no minister no word no element no receiuer there is no Sacrament If there be wanting either minister to deliuer it or word to 〈◊〉 it or element to represent it or receiuer to take it we cannot assure our selues to haue any sacrament of God but rather a tradition and inuention of our owne First then there is required a Minister lawfully called chosen and ordained hauing at the least the approbation and alowance of the church to pronounce the words of institution and to deliuer the outward signs to the receiuers They are not makers of the Sacrament but ministers not autors but administators not deuisors but deliuerers Earthly princes haue their letters patents their great seals keepers of the same if another shal set to the seal that is not appointed the keeper thereof is it not made an heinons crime worthy of heauy punishment So the Lord is a mightye Prince king of kings and Lord of Lords he hath appointed his seales to seale vp his promises of forgiuenes of sinnes and eternal life and he hath ordained his Officers as it were keepers of his great seals God publisheth saluation and pardon to all beleeuers by his word as by his letters pattents and he addeth baptisme and the Lords Supper as two broad seales for greater assurance and confirmation and appointeth the Ministers to be keepers thereof Whosoeuer therfore shall presume to 〈◊〉 to any of these seals without warrant without a caling without a function and direction from God himselfe being no officer no Minister no keeper of them prophaneth these seales and setteth to a counterfet stampe For as no man may preach except he be sent so no man may administer the Sacrament except he be called This is it the Apostle teacheth No man taketh this honor vnto himself but he that is called of God as was Aron and Christ tooke not to himselfe this honor to be made the high Priest but he that 〈◊〉 vnto him thou art my sonne this day begat I thee gaue it to him Now to minister the sacraments is an honour in the Church which none can take to himselfe at his owne pleasure but God must giue it They should haue in their owne consciences a witnesse of Gods calling them to this office and honour Wherefore the sacred functions ordained of God must not be prophaned by voluntary officers and vsurped offices no man must take vpon him without a lawful calling to teach hese holy misteries Of these the Lord complaineh I haue not sent these prophets yet they ranne I haue not spoken to them and yet they prophesied Thus these intruders did thrust their sickle into other mens corne The reasons why the ministers and no others are to intermedle with the Sacraments are very apparant First because euery part and member of the church hath his especiall office and his proper guifts to execute his 〈◊〉 we see in a campe the Souldiers in Warre haue their standing-place in sight of their captaine who hath chosen them to be Warriors so in the Church 〈◊〉 euery one keepe his seuerall calling in the presence of God who hath in wisdome and mercy called him thereunto We see in the natural dispositiō of the body euery member hath his speciall vse the eye to see the hand to handle the foote to walke the eare to heare and if one member should incroch vpon the office of another it must needes tend to the destruction of the body We see in the gouernment of an house and famely the husband and wife the father and sonne the master and seruant know and acknowledge their places to rule to obey to commaund to be commaunded without intruding themselues and incroching vpon the function as it were vpon the free-hold of an other If we would ascend a step higher we obserue in the affaires of state and matters of the cōmon-wealth euery man doth keepe within his owne listes and limits and no man dare presume to charge any man or enterprise any thing in the princes name and authority without a sufficient warrant from the prince himselfe so may no man take vpon him any functions in the church vnlesse hee haue a commission and commaundement from the Lord. For as the prince appointeth by what officers he will be serued so is it in the offices and officers of the Church God hath placed and ordained the Apostle to plant the Euangelist to second and assist the prophet to prophesie the pastor to feede and hath set euery one in his proper place and standing as i were in his watch-tower out of which he must not wander and depart Let euery man abide in the same vocation wherein he was called and afterward Let euery man wherein he was called therein abide with God Whosoeuer therefore medleth without a lawfull vocation as it were violently inuadeth another mans possession and cannot do it without the check and controlment of Christ Iesu who is the captaine of his own host the head of his own body the Lord of his own house and the great king of his owne church Againe Christ the prophet and teacher of his church and the prince of pastors hath committed the office of administration of the Sacraments to those alone to whom he hath committed the dispensation of his word and preaching of the Gospell therefore if any other 〈◊〉 set to the seale it is no true seale but a counterfait stamp The truth of this appeareth Indeede I haptize with water that is I that am apointed a techer in the church to make ready a people prepard for the Lord. And Paule being conuerted and called to preach to beare the name of God to the gentiles did without further word warrant or commaundement minister the Sacraments Now then as we haue seene the truth of the doctrine let vs consider the vses thereof First is the minister of the substance of the Sacrament and a principall part of Christs institution Then he must consider it is his duty being authorised from God and by his church to sanctifie the outward elementes and administer the same to deliuer the outward signes and offer them to the receiuers His workes therefore are to put a part and consecrate the signes to an holy vse to open and
