we_o be_v make_v desperate_a so_o in_o contemn_v his_o justice_n we_o become_v secure_a wherefore_o we_o may_v conclude_v that_o security_n be_v a_o certain_a immoderate_a hope_n and_o hereof_o it_o

hereof_o because_o we_o believe_v not_o that_o there_o be_v in_o god_n any_o execution_n of_o justice_n impiety_n security_n be_v contrary_a to_o desperation_n and_o to_o the_o fear_n of_o god_n

because_o they_o be_v ignorant_a or_o be_v stir_v up_o by_o their_o lust_n or_o frail_a affection_n and_o therefore_o do_v fall_v into_o so_o gréevous_a offence_n héereunto_o i_o answer_v perhaps_o augustine_n comprehend_v this_o kind_n of_o argument_n when_o he_o say_v that_o man_n infirmity_n must_v be_v consider_v and_o certain_o to_o be_v ignorant_a and_o overcome_v with_o lust_n pertain_v to_o imbecility_n howbeit_o we_o may_v otherwise_o answer_v that_o he_o prudent_o omit_v this_o because_o he_o will_v not_o sustain_v the_o person_n of_o a_o defender_n but_o of_o a_o intercessor_n it_o be_v none_o of_o his_o part_n to_o minish_v or_o extenuate_v sin_n he_o confess_v those_o thing_n to_o be_v noughtilie_o do_v for_o the_o which_o he_o entreat_v but_o he_o crave_v a_o remission_n furthermore_o they_o which_o commit_v those_o thing_n which_o they_o know_v to_o be_v punishable_a by_o the_o public_a law_n know_v they_o to_o be_v sin_n mân_z they_o which_o be_v stir_v up_o with_o lust_n can_v be_v compare_v to_o the_o phrentike_a mân_z neither_o can_v they_o which_o be_v stir_v up_o with_o lust_n be_v compare_v as_o of_o some_o they_o be_v unto_o they_o that_o be_v frantic_a and_o out_o of_o their_o wit_n who_o be_v rather_o to_o be_v pity_v than_o punish_v for_o as_o yet_o reason_n reign_v in_o those_o man_n but_o in_o the_o other_o it_o be_v extinguish_v or_o else_o stop_v moreover_o the_o frantic_a person_n do_v not_o procure_v the_o evil_a unto_o themselves_o but_o they_o which_o obey_v lust_n do_v otherwhile_o stir_v they_o up_o they_o seek_v occasion_n they_o

the_o comparison_n be_v very_o unlike_a augustine_n to_o the_o first_o reason_n of_o augustine_n 10_o but_o because_o the_o reason_n of_o augustine_n under_o correction_n of_o so_o notable_a a_o man_n be_v not_o firm_a therefore_o must_v they_o be_v confute_v which_o as_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o be_v do_v so_o i_o judge_v it_o very_o profitable_a first_o he_o say_v that_o sin_n be_v more_o

unto_o this_o we_o answer_v that_o the_o pardon_v which_o follow_v faith_n unto_o which_o be_v adjoin_v repentance_n be_v obtain_v of_o god_n and_o pertain_v not_o to_o the_o civil_a judge_n who_o

that_o those_o man_n be_v correct_v by_o amendment_n of_o life_n and_o repentance_n and_o that_o therefore_o nothing_o else_o must_v be_v any_o more_o wrest_a from_o they_o by_o violence_n but_o correction_n be_v seek_v for_o by_o the_o magistrate_n not_o only_o for_o his_o cause_n that_o be_v punish_v but_o also_o for_o other_o man_n sake_n

else_o if_o for_o want_n of_o age_n he_o be_v not_o yet_o endue_v with_o faith_n we_o understande_v that_o faith_n to_o be_v seal_v which_o the_o offerer_n of_o the_o party_n to_o be_v baptize_v do_v profess_v insomuch_o then_o as_o there_o be_v a_o difference_n between_o our_o faith_n and_o the_o faith_n of_o the_o lutheran_n we_o can_v deliver_v our_o faith_n to_o be_v seal_v of_o they_o see_v

the_o church_n of_o n._n do_v baptise_v into_o any_o other_o faith_n than_o into_o that_o which_o flourish_v and_o be_v teach_v in_o the_o same_o but_o that_o baptism_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o the_o

you_o think_v that_o the_o controversy_n about_o the_o eucharist_n be_v a_o certain_a small_a dissent_n which_o be_v not_o so_o see_v in_o it_o there_o be_v strife_n about_o the_o principal_a point_n of_o religion_n further_o if_o the_o thing_n be_v of_o small_a importance_n why_o do_v we_o so_o eagerlie_a contend_v for_o the_o same_o why_o do_v we_o not_o hide_v the_o smallness_n of_o the_o

we_o know_v for_o certainty_n to_o be_v in_o a_o ill_a opinion_n why_o do_v we_o not_o rather_o imitate_v the_o lutheran_n minister_n which_o will_v not_o commit_v their_o child_n to_o be_v baptize_v of_o our_o minister_n moreover_o if_o in_o deliver_v of_o your_o child_n to_o be_v baptize_v you_o shall_v testify_v unto_o those_o minister_n that_o you_o will_v have_v they_o to_o be_v baptize_v in_o that_o faith_n concern_v the_o eucharist_n which_o you_o retain_v and_o profess_v they_o undoubted_o will_v not_o baptise_v they_o also_o the_o godly_a jew_n in_o old_a time_n will_v not_o have_v

in_o my_o judgement_n you_o be_v much_o deceive_v that_o you_o think_v those_o minister_n to_o agree_v with_o you_o as_o touch_v the_o sacrament_n of_o baptism_n very_o it_o be_v far_o otherwise_o baptism_n the_o opinion_n of_o the_o lutheran_n as_o touch_v baptism_n for_o they_o attribute_v unto_o the_o
the_o spirit_n and_o with_o faith_n for_o while_o in_o the_o holy_a supper_n we_o revolve_v in_o our_o mind_n the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o with_o a_o sincere_a faith_n do_v faithful_o believe_v that_o these_o thing_n be_v wrought_v upon_o the_o cross_n for_o the_o redeem_n of_o we_o we_o eat_v and_o drink_v those_o thing_n for_o our_o great_a benefit_n for_o they_o be_v unto_o our_o mind_n as_o it_o be_v the_o most_o excellent_a meat_n and_o the_o most_o wholesome_a drink_n and_o that_o faith_n do_v god_n stir_v up_o in_o they_o that_o be_v he_o through_o the_o holy_a

that_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v give_v unto_o death_n for_o our_o salvation_n do_v spiritual_o eat_v and_o spiritual_o drink_v those_o thing_n therefore_o we_o confess_v that_o unto_o the_o natural_a and_o proper_a eat_n and_o drink_v be_v require_v a_o presence_n of_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v eat_v and_o of_o the_o thing_n to_o be_v drunken_a otherwise_o thing_n that_o be_v absent_a can_v neither_o be_v eat_v nor_o drunken_a but_o withal_o we_o deny_v that_o of_o spiritual_a eat_n and_o drink_v can_v be_v gather_v or_o conclude_v that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v say_v to_o be_v eat_v and_o drunken_a allegorical_o be_v there_o bodily_a and_o proper_o present_a but_o that_o the_o eat_n of_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n consist_v of_o faith_n he_o himself_o most_o plain_o testify_v in_o the_o 6._o chapter_n of_o john_n 47._o ver._n 35._o 47._o wherefore_o that_o evangelist_n since_o he_o judge_v the_o whole_a matter_n to_o be_v there_o abundant_o expound_v of_o he_o he_o do_v not_o rehearse_v in_o the_o history_n of_o the_o last_o supper_n in_o what_o sort_n the_o outward_a sign_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v add_v moreover_o by_o this_o be_v the_o self_n same_o thing_n gather_v that_o unto_o the_o true_a and_o proper_a body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v apply_v a_o true_a and_o proper_a eat_n since_o that_o now_o it_o can_v be_v

which_o thing_n in_o their_o manner_n be_v call_v the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n because_o they_o be_v outward_a sign_n of_o those_o thing_n wherefore_o after_o a_o sort_n we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o eat_v and_o drink_v with_o the_o mouth_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o the_o lord_n wherefore_o cyprian_n and_o augustine_n when_o they_o treat_v of_o the_o eat_n of_o these_o thing_n which_o be_v signify_v namely_o the_o spiritual_a eat_n do_v prudent_o say_v why_o prepare_v thou_o thy_o tooth_n and_o thy_o belly_n believe_v and_o thou_o have_v eat_v wherefore_o there_o be_v no_o

that_o they_o may_v mix_v themselves_o with_o our_o supper_n but_o it_o behoove_v that_o our_o mind_n be_v admonish_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o the_o outward_a sign_n shall_v be_v carry_v by_o faith_n unto_o heaven_n that_o they_o may_v eat_v this_o holy_a meat_n and_o be_v nourish_v and_o here_o it_o follow_v that_o they_o which_o be_v utter_o destitute_a of_o faith_n do_v not_o
