bodye and bloude of Christe as Paule saieth Is not the cuppe of thankesgeuing wherwith we geue thankes a partakynge of the bloude of Christ And the bread that we breake is it not the partaking of the bodi of Christ These wordes of Paule do witnes clearely that the faithful eate the body of Christ spiritually vnder the breade and wine Yea likewise as a Bryde receiueth her husband with a ringe euen so receiue the faithful Christ to be theyr owne and euerlastinge saluacion but that some men wil haue that the bodely presence shoulde be in the breade is a greate misse vnderstandinge of the godlye woorde yea it is an Antichristes doctryne whych is contrary both to our faith to al hole scripture for I beleue and holy scripture beareth witnes that Christ after his resurreccion is ascended vp into heauen and sitteth vppon the right hand of his almighty father Rom. viii And bydeth there as concerninge his bodely presence but spiritually he hath promysed to abide with vs to the end of the worlde in his woorde Math. xxviii And seinge that nowe Christe as concerning hys bodely presence abideth at the righthand of God hys father Heb. x. so may not the body of Christ be in the breade And againe it is againste al truth that Christ at one time hath bene in many or diuerse places as touchinge his body Furthermore we do daily se the dredeful idolatry is sprong out of the carnal vnderstandynge of these wordes of Christ This is my body yet daily springeth to the great abhominable slaunder of the honor of god so the meÌ„ worship a piece of bread for their god yea hold that to be their maker And the papists locke him in gold and siluer not remeÌ„bring what Paule Stephen witnes saying The most highest wil not dwell in temples made with mans hands Act. vii and .xvii O blind meÌ„ that are so be witched of the whore that ye can not nor wil not beleue the manifest truth O blindnes and great presumptuousnes of the papistes that wil take vpon theÌ„ to teach Iesu Christe oute of heauen into a piece of bread which is consumable as we clearly se by experience that it shulde be worshipped for God which is euerlasting and vnchangeable Now what remedy for I caÌ„not help it therfore must I do as the Lord Iesu Christ spake vnto his Apostels of the Phariseis saying Let theÌ„ go for thei are blind leaders of the blynde when one blind leadeth an other so fal they both into the ditche Mat. xv but the lord must be thanked that out of his vnmeasurable grace hath opened our eies that we can se and know wherfore we shal take the bread and the wine in the supper namely for a memorial and token of the suffering and death of Iesu Christ yea for the body bloud of Christe but that for the hye names sake not of the material thinges behalfe as is aboue rehearsed of the Easter Lambe Furthermore the supper of the Lord is also a ioining togither of the Christen congregacioÌ„ in loue And also the congregacioÌ„ that wil hold this supper must be wel apointed ioined together in brotherlye loue yea they must staÌ„d in one spirit soul Ph. i. Hauing a burning loue for Paule saithe we many are one bred one body in asmuch as we ar partakers of one bread likewise as the meÌ„bers of one body ar not in strife one against another but in a charitable vniti seruiÌ„g one a nother i. Cor. xii So may there no strife nor debate be fouÌ„d in the coÌ„gregacioÌ„ of god i. Cor. i. So that ani man shuld only care take thought for him self not care nor loke vpon his brothers lacke but the one must helpe care for the other in al things necessary wher he can or may Gal. vi And no maÌ„ must seke that that is his but euery one the other welth Phi. ii And likewise as of the grains of corn caÌ„not be baken bread but through fyre eueÌ„ so can not the coÌ„gregacion be a right spiritual lofe wherof Paul speaketh but through burning loue and charity so ought the christian coÌ„gregacion to be one lofe i. Co. x. for likewise as many graines are sowen to the intent that bread shuld be baked of it so soweth the great father of houshold his precious wheate into the aker or grouÌ„d of this world to the enteÌ„t that they al shuld become one lofe breake the supper of the lord rightly after the words of Paul We many are al one bread one bodye in as muche as we are partakers of one bread i. Cor. x. And wher so euer the congregacion is not so apointed and the bread broken in this maner there is the breade eaten and the wine dronken to their dampnacion from the which god the merciful father wyl defend kepe al diligeÌ„t louers of the euerlastinge truth through his vnexpressable goodnes mercy Thus haue I breifly expressed and set forth mi faith and beleue in god the father and god the son god the holy ghost iii distinct persons one in the godhead coequall in substance also my fayth beleue agreing with the true word of god of the sacraments or rather significacioÌ„s of baptism and the holy supper of our Lorde Furthermore as touching the burying of my bodi which is nothing but a peice of vile flesh doÌ„g earth dust ashes it auaileth me not wher it be buried for asmuch as I knowe do faithfully beleue that according to the saying of saint Paul i. Tess iiii when the Lord him self shal come doun froÌ„ heaueÌ„ with a shoute and voyce of the archauÌ„gel with the trumpe of god And those that slepe in Iesus Christ shal arise first before those which remain theÌ„ vpon the earth shal be caught vp also with them in the cloudes to mete the Lord in the ayr so shal we euer be with the Lord wherfore I am coÌ„forted and satisfied with these words And therfore I remit referre the burying of my body vnto the discression of Iane my wife who is a christian woman and whoÌ„ I only make my executrix And as touching the distribucion of my teÌ„peral goodes which are but smal although they are more a thousand times then I was worthy of for that I receiued the same at the hands of god honour praise thankes be to him for it and hath coÌ„mauÌ„ded me as a faithful wise steward to bestow the same according to his wil. I haue partly in my life time albeit I might haue done much more dystributed the same And that that is remaining at this present aswel moueable as vnmoueable I gyue them aswell heare in Ireland as England holy vnto Iane my wyfe And also I geue vnto her my leace of the personage Tymolynge begge my lease of my house that I nowe dwel in my lease of the personage of Wyckelowe my Custodia of much Cabragh and Pylletteston of the which I trust the lord deputy of Ireland that shal be next and the counsel of the same wil grauÌ„t vnto her a further leace for .xxi. yeares Also I geue bequeath vnto her al such debtes other sommes of monye as are due vnto me aswell at the kynges maiesties handes or at anye other personnes Also I geue vnto her suche somes of mony or lande as shal please the kinges maiestie to giue me for my recompence of my seruyce doone heare to paye my debtes withal In witnesse of al the premises I the sayed Richarde Brasier haue subscrybed thys my laste wyl the daye and yeare aboue wrytten Thys my Testamente is of George my seruauntes hande and myne Per me Richarde Brasier Â¶ Imprinted at London by Ihon Day dwelling ouer Aldersgate beneth S.

the last trumpet The trumpet saith Paule shal blow and the dead shall ryse vncorruptible and we shal be chaunged for thys corruptyble body muste put on vncorrupcion and thys mortal body must put on immortality At the last is ther also an euerlastynge lyfe whyche al they shall receyue that beleue on Iesus Christ and stedfastlye abyde in good workes sekyng prayse honour and immortality in the lyfe to come Thys is the suÌ„me of my fayth and belefe through the whyche fayth al the ryghtuous lyue and wythoute the which beliefe no man may please God Therefore the euerlastynge God be blessed that oute of hys vnmeasurable mercye and grace hath giuen me thys faythe throughe Iesus Christ our Lord. Now foloweth my fayth and opinion of the sacramental token of baptisme Baptysme is a sacramentall token the whyche is gyuen vs of Christe and is at the fyrst an entryng into the Christian congregacion as Paule sayeth we are baptised in one spirite to be one body i. Cor. xii Secondarely Baptysme is a fountayne of regeneracioÌ„ as Paul witnesseth Tit. iii. saying that Christ hath saued vs bi the fouÌ„teine of the newe byrthe and renuing of the holy ghost not that the water doth saue vs for nothyng can saue vs but only God Esa xliii but seynge that our Lord Iesu Christ hath spoken that he that beleueth is baptysed shall be saued Marc. xvi And goddes word is verity and truth Ihon. xvii And his promyses may not fayle Psal cxlvii Therfore must baptyme nedes brynge saluation vnto them that in beleue are baptysed not for the workes sake but for gods word and promyses Deu. viii Thirdly baptime is a couenant of a good conscyence to God first of Pete iii. namely that he that in beleue is baptysed byndeth hym self or maketh a couenaunt with god that from thenceforth he wil liue after his wil. And on this couenauntes behalfe whiche muste be done oute of a cleane faythfull heart hath the baptyme power and not for the water sake wherewith the filthinesse of the flesh is washed away but withoute it be that the hearts of them that are baptised be cleansed Actes xv Through goddes word Ihon. xv The water can not cleanse them wherwyth it is also proued that baptysme wythoute faythe maye in no wyse bee alowed Foorthelye baptysme sygnyfyeth an offerynge of the fleshe and a resurreccion into a newe lyfe as we haue to the Romaynes vi Knowe ye not saythe Saynte Paule that all we whyche are baptysed in the name of Iesu Christ are baptysed to die wyth hym therfore are we buried wyth him by baptysme for to dye that lykewyse as Christ was raised vp froÌ„ death to lyfe by the glory of the father eueÌ„ so we shuld walke in a newe lyfe Thys is nowe shortly expressed what baptisme is and what it signifyeth But for asmuch as all the former scriptures are spoken of them onlye that be of yeres of discression before they receiue the faythe of Christ it is not altering of the institucion word of Christ to baptise the innocents in faÌ„tes For as in circumcisioÌ„ of the old law the faith of the parents sufficed to make the child one of the chosen people of God not wythstanding that the circumcision of the flesh is not circumcision as Paul writeth to the Ro. ii but the circumcision of the hert euen so the baptisme of our infants not withstandinge that the washynge of the bodye in water is not baptysme but the washynge of the soule in the bloude of Christe by faythe yet shall the faythe of the parentes be accepted of God And theyr chyldren made members of the churche of Christ thereby And also I beleue that god dothe moue the heartes of the infantes that be hys wyth the holye ghost If any require witnesses of the scripture for thys assercyon that chyldrene or infantes be made members of the church of Christe by the faythe of they re parentes Lette hym reade and consyder well the story of Sampson and Samuel wyth other lyke storyes of the old testameÌ„t wherin may easely be perceyued how God dyd then accept the children for the parents fayth Let hym consyder also the storyes of the Gospel wherin appeareth how Christ wold not haue the children kept from hym wheÌ„ theyr parentes brought theÌ„ to hym that he might lay hys hand vpon them and how certayne chyldren were cured and healed of diseases euen for the fayth that was found in theyr parentes And last of al it is euydent both in the Actes of the Apostles and in the Epystles of certaine of them that when certaine men receiued the Gospell both they theyr whole houshold were baptysed Where it is not to be thought that the infantes wer reiected because they could not vnderstaÌ„d the Apostles preachyng For S. Paule writing to the Corinthians sayd .i. Corin. vii As coÌ„cernyng the chyldren begotten betwene an Heathen man and a faithful woman or betwene a Heathenish woman and a faithful man the children are cleane by reason that one of his parentes is faithful And what other thing shuld he meane thereby but that God accepteth those children for members of his church whoÌ„ the faithfull parentes do willingly bring to the fountain of regeneracion therto receiue the signe of the euerlasting couenant betwene God and vs. Thys is with the shortest my faythe and opinion of baptysme Nowe foloweth lykewyse my fayth and opinion of the supper of the Lord The supper of the Lorde is a memoryall token of the sufferinge and deathe of Iesu Christ is instituted of Christ for this cause that the faythfull congregacyon of Iesu Christ shulde come together for to shew the deathe of Iesu Christe and hys benefytes lauddynge and thankynge hym magnyfyinge hys holye name and then also eate of thys breade and dryncke of thys wyne to a remembraunce that Christ hathe geuen hys body and shed his bloud for vs. Math. xxvi And because that it is a comen vse that a token of remembraunce hath the name of the thinge that is remembred by it Therefore hath Christ called the breade his bodye and the wyne hys bloud not that hys substance is in the breade and wyne but that we shuld remember him therby Likewise as the Easter lambe was called the passynge by and yet was it not in it self the very passyng by seinge nowe that the Easter lambe hath the name of the thynge that the Israelytes remembred by it and wherby they might euerlastinglye keepe in remembraunce the benefites of God right conuenient is it that Christ hath called the bread his body and the wine his bloude because that we shuld remember therby his death and passion yea the only sacrifice of his body which he hath suffered to be brokeÌ„ and his bloud to be shed for vs. Neuertheles how be it that the materiall body of Christ is not in the breade nor his bloude in the wine yet neuertheles is the supper of the Lord a partaking but spiritually of the
