this_o sacrifice_n but_o in_o these_o latter_a word_n you_o see_v he_o actual_o to_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n and_o here_o be_v give_v you_o to_o meditate_v and_o contemplate_v first_o the_o immolation_n and_o then_o the_o oblation_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n the_o sacrifice_n be_v a_o sovereign_a honour_n give_v and_o yield_v to_o god_n which_o consist_v in_o a_o extreme_a unmaking_n and_o dissolution_n of_o the_o creature_n which_o dissolution_n and_o unmaking_n be_v not_o nor_o can_v be_v extreme_a except_o by_o the_o destroy_n of_o the_o thing_n which_o be_v offer_v wherefore_o all_o thing_n heretofore_o which_o be_v offer_v up_o in_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n be_v first_o to_o be_v destroy_v for_o it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o be_v offer_v simple_o and_o another_o thing_n to_o be_v offer_v up_o in_o sacrifice_n as_o for_o example_n the_o sacrificator_n the_o levite_n and_o the_o first_o bear_v of_o israel_n be_v offer_v up_o to_o god_n but_o how_o not_o offer_v up_o in_o sacrifice_n because_o they_o still_o remain_v live_v all_o thing_n then_o offer_v in_o sacrifice_n ought_v sir_n to_o be_v destroy_v if_o they_o be_v liquid_a or_o wet_a thing_n without_o life_n they_o be_v to_o

there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o effusion_n of_o the_o beast_n blood_n because_o blood_n be_v the_o seat_n of_o the_o beast_n life_n the_o separation_n of_o blood_n from_o the_o flesh_n show_v and_o figure_v the_o separation_n of_o life_n from_o the_o body_n and_o consequent_o a_o entire_a death_n and_o in_o the_o expiatory_a and_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n this_o be_v the_o more_o requisite_a and_o needful_a for_o that_o these_o sacrifice_n be_v satisfaction_n for_o typical_a and_o carnal_a sin_n but_o the_o absolute_a satisfaction_n and_o expiation_n for_o sin_n must_v consist_v in_o the_o death_n and_o destruction_n of_o the_o thing_n offer_v because_o the_o apostle_n peremptory_o and_o true_o tell_v we_o 6.33_o rom._n 6.33_o that_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n from_o whence_o you_o first_o see_v wherefore_o it_o be_v that_o of_o necessity_n christ_n must_v die_v for_o the_o wage_n of_o sin_n be_v death_n it_o must_v needs_o follow_v that_o he_o who_o place_v himself_o a_o undertaker_n for_o sinner_n must_v undergo_v the_o punishment_n ordain_v for_o sin_n second_o from_o hence_o you_o likewise_o see_v wherefore_o it_o be_v that_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v shed_v in_o his_o death_n and_o separate_v from_o his_o body_n to_o wit_n thereby_o to_o express_v and_o show_v the_o truth_n of_o the_o death_n and_o expiation_n of_o sin_n as_o the_o apostle_n to_o the_o hebrew_n prove_v by_o legal_a figure_n that_o jesus_n christ_n must_v die_v and_o shed_v his_o blood_n in_o sacrifice_n because_o say_v he_o 9.22_o heb._n 9.22_o that_o according_a to_o the_o law_n all_o thing_n be_v purge_v and_o purify_v by_o blood_n and_o without_o the_o effusion_n of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n so_o jesus_n christ_n by_o shed_v his_o

as_o it_o be_v in_o pass_v you_o learn_v two_o thing_n i._o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o there_o be_v any_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n without_o blood_n and_o consequent_o impossible_a that_o the_o mass_n wherein_o there_o be_v neither_o death_n nor_o effusion_n of_o blood_n be_v a_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n for_o sin_n as_o our_o adversary_n call_v it_o two_o in_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o be_v needful_a that_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v represent_v to_o we_o distinct_o and_o several_o for_o that_o there_o be_v two_o sign_n to_o wit_n the_o bread_n

be_v my_o blood_n which_o be_v shed_v because_o without_o effusion_n of_o blood_n there_o can_v be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n from_o whence_o it_o follow_v that_o the_o take_n and_o cut_v away_o of_o the_o cup_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n which_o show_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n to_o be_v separate_v from_o his_o body_n take_v away_o from_o the_o mystery_n of_o that_o sacred_a supper_n it_o
