the_o very_a word_n of_o the_o catechism_n in_o that_o place_n where_o it_o explicateh_o what_o relate_v to_o the_o lord's-supper_n it_o pronounce_v in_o express_a term_n not_o only_o that_o christ_n

extreme_a difference_n between_o receive_v in_o part_n and_o receive_v plenary_o so_o that_o if_o we_o partake_v of_o jesus-christ_n in_o all_o other_o communication_n of_o he_o but_o in_o part_n and_o that_o in_o the_o lord_n supper_n single_o we_o receive_v he_o entire_o it_o follow_v even_o by_o the_o confession_n of_o our_o adversary_n that_o we_o must_v seek_v in_o the_o communion_n a_o participation_n special_a and_o peculiar_a to_o this_o mystery_n which_o can_v not_o appertain_v to_o baptism_n or_o preach_v and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n it_o follow_v also_o that_o this_o

have_v affirm_v it_o of_o the_o eucharist_n so_o that_o they_o have_v be_v convince_v they_o can_v not_o decline_v the_o ascribe_v to_o the_o lord_n supper_n such_o a_o manner_n of_o possess_v
