common_a people_n and_o not_o to_o displease_v the_o athenian_n as_o witness_v cicero_n in_o his_o book_n of_o the_o end_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a of_o tusculan_n quest_n and_o of_o the_o nature_n

and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n shall_v quite_o take_v away_o the_o offering_n of_o external_a visible_a sacrifice_n to_o god_n for_o the_o good_a of_o those_o who_o be_v deceive_v to_o the_o violate_v of_o religion_n contempt_n of_o god_n and_o damnation_n of_o their_o poor_a soul_n it_o will_v be_v worth_a our_o labour_n yet_o more_o exact_o to_o handle_v this_o matter_n and_o seek_v out_o how_o and_o what_o visible_a sacrifice_n our_o saviour_n appoint_v for_o his_o follower_n to_o use_v in_o his_o church_n upon_o earth_n which_o by_o god_n grace_n i_o will_v do_v in_o the_o

under_o the_o form_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n 1._o the_o prophet_n david_n speak_v of_o the_o priesthood_n of_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o 109._o psal_n and_o 4._o ver._n according_a unto_o our_o account_n earth_n christ_n priest_n hood_n forever_o of_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v upon_o earth_n and_o 110._o according_a to_o the_o account_n of_o protestant_n and_o puritan_n say_v our_o lord_n have_v swear_v and_o it_o shall_v not_o repent_v he_o thou_o be_v a_o priest_n forever_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o

not_o for_o once_o or_o for_o a_o little_a while_n as_o upon_o the_o cross_n but_o as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n shall_v last_v until_o eternity_n come_v or_o as_o the_o apostle_n say_v until_o

the_o 26._o of_o ezechiel_n and_o 21._o ver._n and_o upon_o the_o first_o to_o the_o gall_n and_o 4._o ver._n affirm_v that_o the_o hebrew_n word_n leolam_n which_o be_v here_o translate_v forever_o do_v not_o signify_v the_o eternity_n of_o the_o other_o life_n but_o the_o whole_a time_n of_o this_o life_n or_o as_o long_o as_o the_o world_n shall_v endure_v etc._n etc._n 2._o the_o end_n and_o use_v of_o priesthood_n and_o offer_v sacrifice_n the_o use_n of_o priesthood_n and_o sacrifice_n up_o of_o sacrifice_n be_v as_o s._n paul_n say_v heb._n 5._o 1._o to_o obtain_v remission_n of_o sin_n but_o after_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n and_o end_n of_o this_o world_n there_o will_v be_v no_o more_o any_o remission_n of_o sin_n wherefore_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o priest_n forever_o in_o the_o other_o world_n of_o eternity_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n see_v that_o in_o the_o eternity_n of_o the_o other_o life_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n or_o use_v of_o priesthood_n or_o sacrifice_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n which_o s._n paul_n further_a signifi_v say_v where_o there_o be_v no_o remession_n of_o sin_n as_o in_o the_o eternity_n of_o the_o other_o life_n now_o there_o be_v not_o a_o oblation_n for_o sin_n heb._n 10._o 18._o again_o s._n paul_n sayith_n every_o high_a priest_n be_v appoint_v that_o he_o may_v offer_v gift_n and_o host_n wherefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o he_o also_o have_v something_o that_o he_o may_v offer_v heb._n 8._o 3._o but_o it_o be_v absurd_a to_o say_v that_o christ_n in_o heaven_n offer_v sacrifice_n host_n or_o gift_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n see_v that_o in_o heaven_n earthly_a sacrament_n and_o sacrifice_n which_o be_v represent_v under_o outward_a corruptible_a material_a sign_n do_v cease_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o imperfection_n for_o in_o heaven_n be_v no_o imperfection_n 1._o cor._n 13._o 10._o 3._o and_o s._n paul_n speak_v of_o the_o priesthood_n of_o our_o saviour_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n say_v if_o then_o consummation_n be_v by_o the_o leviticall_a priesthood_n what_o necessity_n be_v there_o yet_o of_o a_o other_o aaron_n christ_n a_o priest_n of_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n and_o not_o of_o aaron_n priest_n to_o rise_v according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o mechisedech_n and_o not_o to_o be_v call_v according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n for_o the_o priesthood_n be_v translate_v it_o be_v necessary_a that_o a_o translation_n of_o the_o law_n also_o be_v make_v for_o christ_n of_o who_o these_o thing_n be_v say_v be_v of_o another_o tribe_n of_o the_o which_o none_o attend_v on_o the_o altar_n heb._n 7._o 11._o where_o we_o earth_n chriests_n priesthood_n to_o be_v perform_v on_o earth_n see_v that_o our_o saviour_n priesthood_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v upon_o earth_n as_o the_o priesthood_n according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n be_v perform_v upon_o earth_n and_o the_o law_n be_v translate_v upon_o earth_n and_o the_o tribe_n and_o altar_n be_v upon_o earth_n 4._o neither_o can_v this_o prophecy_n be_v understand_v of_o cross_n this_o prophecy_n not_o understand_v of_o the_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n our_o saviour_n sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n for_o that_o be_v but_o once_o offer_v heb._n 10._o 10._o and_o if_o the_o scripture_n here_o shall_v speak_v of_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o cross_n it_o shall_v say_v thou_o be_v a_o priest_n for_o once_o and_o not_o say_v thou_o be_v a_o priest_n forever_o second_o s._n paul_n say_v other_o priest_n by_o death_n be_v prohibit_v to_o continue_v but_o christ_n for_o that_o he_o continue_v forever_o have_v a_o everlasting_a priesthood_n heb._n 7._o 23._o but_o as_o our_o saviour_n offer_v himself_o in_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n he_o be_v neither_o everlasting_a nor_o immortal_a but_o mortal_a and_o dye_v and_o therefore_o as_o he_o be_v offer_v upon_o the_o cross_n he_o be_v by_o death_n prohibit_v to_o continue_v aswell_o as_o other_o priest_n wherefore_o it_o can_v be_v say_v that_o christ_n be_v a_o priest_n forever_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o melchisedech_n because_o he_o offer_v himself_o upon_o the_o cross_n 5._o the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o saviour_n upon_o the_o cross_n be_v bloody_a and_o rather_o according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n then_o melchisedech_n of_o which_o order_n our_o saviour_n be_v not_o as_o s._n paul_n witness_v say_v christ_n aron_n our_o saviour_n be_v not_o a_o priest_n of_o the_o order_n of_o aron_n be_v not_o call_v according_a to_o the_o order_n of_o aaron_n heb._n 7._o 11._o wherefore_o see_v that_o our_o saviour_n be_v to_o be_v a_o priest_n to_o offer_v sacrifice_n unto_o god_n until_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n and_o that_o there_o neither_o be_v nor_o have_v be_v any_o other_o sacrifice_n offer_v in_o the_o christian_a church_n but_o that_o which_o among_o christian_n lord_n no_o sacrifice_n among_o christian_n but_o that_o of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n be_v call_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n as_o all_o the_o christian_a church_n service_n book_n history_n chronicle_n and_o testimony_n of_o ancient_a time_n bear_v

the_o species_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n according_a to_o his_o command_n at_o his_o last_o supper_n when_o take_v bread_n he_o give_v thanks_o and_o break_v and_o give_v to_o the_o apostle_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o to_o god_n and_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o chalice_n after_o he_o have_v sup_v say_v this_o be_v the_o chalice_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n

offer_v sacrifice_n to_o god_n the_o father_n in_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n and_o withal_o give_v a_o express_a command_n that_o no_o other_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n shall_v be_v offer_v for_o the_o remission_n of_o sin_n in_o his_o church_n but_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n which_o we_o see_v fulfil_v 7._o as_o faith_n in_o
