glorify_v now_o this_o serve_v to_o show_v the_o falsity_n of_o the_o corporeal_a presence_n for_o which_o there_o be_v so_o much_o dispute_v for_o if_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v in_o the_o host_n he_o be_v not_o there_o live_v since_o that_o he_o be_v in_o this_o action_n as_o dead_a it_o make_v we_o also_o see_v the_o nakedness_n of_o that_o which_o be_v call_v concomitance_n and_o of_o the_o unbloody_a sacrifice_n for_o the_o blood_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v present_v unto_o we_o as_o separate_v from_o his_o body_n this_o likewise_o make_v unprofitable_a the_o

christ_n be_v not_o exhibit_v unto_o we_o as_o glorious_a nor_o yet_o as_o live_v but_o as_o dead_a as_o break_v and_o his_o blood_n as_o shed_v let_v this_o be_v say_v by_o the_o way_n for_o orthodox_n divine_v have_v make_v these_o reason_n of_o force_n enough_o but_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v why_o jesus_n christ_n be_v represent_v unto_o we_o as_o dead_a and_o not_o glorify_v be_v it_o there_o speak_v of_o his_o death_n and_o not_o rather_o of_o his_o resurrection_n why_o have_v he_o rather_o institute_n a_o memorial_n of_o his_o ignominious_a humiliation_n than_o of_o his_o glorious_a exaltation_n why_o have_v we_o no_o sacrament_n which_o represent_v unto_o we_o his_o body_n glorious_a as_o we_o have_v two_o which_o represent_v he_o dead_a for_o it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o humiliation_n exclude_v not_o that_o of_o his_o exaltation_n on_o the_o contrary_a it_o lead_v we_o to_o it_o but_o proper_o and_o formal_o the_o body_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v not_o represent_v nor_o consider_v in_o the_o supper_n but_o as_o dead_a &_o break_a this_o question_n be_v easy_a to_o be_v resolve_v the_o sacrament_n be_v institute_v in_o favour_n of_o man_n and_o the_o end_n of_o a_o sacrament_n be_v to_o assure_v we_o of_o our_o good_a and_o salvation_n so_o in_o the_o supper_n the_o intention_n of_o jesus_n christ_n be_v thereby_o to_o seal_v and_o ratify_v that_o which_o concern_v we_o not_o that_o which_o concern_v himself_o and_o for_o this_o reason_n he_o present_v himself_o in_o this_o action_n inasmuch_o as_o he_o procure_v the_o glory_n of_o other_o not_o so_o much_o as_o he_o possess_v his_o own_o now_o it_o be_v by_o his_o death_n that_o he_o have_v procure_v our_o glory_n true_a it_o be_v that_o his_o exaltation_n be_v also_o our_o salvation_n but_o he_o have_v receive_v this_o glory_n both_o for_o we_o and_o for_o himself_o whereas_o his_o death_n be_v whole_o for_o we_o moreover_o it_o be_v by_o virtue_n of_o his_o death_n that_o his_o glorification_n be_v profitable_a unto_o we_o for_o that_o he_o have_v take_v possession_n of_o the_o heaven_n in_o our_o name_n and_o that_o he_o intercede_v for_o we_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n all_o this_o come_v from_o the_o merit_n of_o his_o blood_n heb._n 9_o v._o 12._o furthermore_o jesus_n christ_n do_v give_v himself_o unto_o we_o in_o the_o eucharist_n inasmuch_o as_o he_o be_v deliver_v up_o for_o we_o luke_n 22_o five_o 19_o 20_o now_o it_o be_v in_o his_o death_n that_o he_o be_v deliver_v so_o that_o he_o give_v himself_o unto_o we_o as_o dead_a final_o he_o will_v leave_v we_o a_o remembrance_n of_o the_o love_n which_o he_o bear_v we_o now_o the_o great_a effect_n wherein_o this_o love_n appear_v be_v that_o he_o give_v himself_o to_o death_n for_o we_o it_o be_v for_o this_o cause_n that_o he_o represent_v unto_o we_o rather_o his_o death_n than_o his_o exaltation_n from_o thence_o it_o be_v that_o in_o the_o supper_n although_o we_o ought_v to_o lift_v our_o heart_n up_o to_o heaven_n where_o he_o be_v now_o live_v in_o full_a majesty_n nevertheless_o his_o body_n break_v and_o his_o blood_n shed_v be_v the_o proper_a and_o formal_a object_n of_o our_o contemplation_n and_o the_o act_n of_o our_o mind_n consist_v in_o this_o that_o we_o there_o consider_v his_o death_n past_a rather_o than_o his_o present_a glory_n this_o will_v furnish_v a_o answer_n for_o the_o follow_a question_n chap._n ix_o why_o in_o the_o supper_n jesus_n christ_n institute_v not_o more_o illustrious_a sign_n and_o why_o they_o be_v not_o miraculous_a there_o be_v none_o of_o we_o who_o have_v not_o this_o thought_n when_o he_o see_v that_o this_o sacrament_n as_o well_o as_o baptism_n consist_v in_o such_o abject_a

shall_v no_o more_o a_o universal_a deluge_n appear_v the_o pillar_n of_o fire_n and_o
the_o cloud_n which_o witness_v the_o presence_n of_o god_n among_o the_o israelite_n the_o go_v back_o of_o the_o sun_n to_o confirm_v the_o faith_n of_o ezekias_n have_v a_o more_o famous_a appearance_n than_o our_o sacrament_n we_o will_v say_v as_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o element_n whereof_o they_o be_v compose_v be_v more_o important_a to_o man_n for_o the_o use_n of_o water_n eat_v and_o drink_v be_v more_o necessary_a for_o we_o than_o the_o sight_n of_o more_o majestical_a object_n now_o it_o be_v that_o god_n will_v represent_v unto_o we_o benefit_n necessary_a for_o the_o soul_n under_o the_o image_n of_o those_o which_o be_v most_o necessary_a for_o the_o body_n i_o omit_v the_o other_o reason_n for_o which_o it_o be_v necessary_a that_o the_o eucharist_n shall_v consist_v of_o nourishment_n of_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v here_o above_o and_o can_v also_o allege_v they_o for_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n but_o we_o think_v further_o wherefore_o be_v not_o those_o element_n use_v in_o some_o extraordinary_a fashion_n or_o why_o be_v they_o not_o send_v we_o from_o heaven_n as_o the_o manna_n or_o produce_v miraculous_o as_o the_o wine_n at_o the_o marriage_n in_o cana_n or_o why_o be_v there_o not_o some_o miracle_n show_v as_o in_o the_o loaf_n which_o jesus_n christ_n multiply_v for_o the_o satisfy_n of_o many_o thousand_o of_o person_n or_o why_o have_v not_o the_o bread_n of_o the_o holy_a supper_n the_o virtue_n of_o sustain_v we_o forty_o day_n after_o without_o eat_v or_o drink_v as_o that_o which_o god_n cause_v to_o be_v bring_v to_o elias_n and_o likewise_o why_o do_v not_o a_o angel_n descend_v into_o the_o water_n of_o baptism_n as_o in_o the_o pool_n of_o bethesda_n for_o to_o heal_v corporal_a malady_n why_o be_v naaman_n heal_v of_o his_o leprosy_n in_o the_o water_n of_o jordan_n and_o nevertheless_o if_o a_o leper_n be_v baptise_a his_o leprosy_n be_v not_o wipe_v away_o to_o all_o this_o may_v be_v give_v one_o common_a answer_n touch_v the_o cause_n of_o the_o cessation_n of_o miracle_n but_o there_o be_v particular_n touch_v our_o sacrament_n by_o name_n touch_v the_o supper_n the_o end_n of_o a_o miracle_n be_v to_o show_v the_o greatness_n and_o power_n of_o god_n on_o the_o contrary_a the_o end_n of_o our_o sacrament_n particular_o of_o the_o eucharist_n be_v to_o show_v the_o infirmity_n the_o death_n and_o humiliation_n of_o christ_n now_o the_o disgrace_n can_v not_o be_v represent_v by_o a_o glorious_a spectacle_n and_o full_a of_o splendour_n nor_o the_o weakness_n by_o token_n of_o infinite_a power_n such_o as_o miracle_n be_v nor_o the_o death_n and_o passion_n by_o act_n of_o a_o unchangeable_a life_n nor_o the_o humiliation_n of_o the_o humanity_n by_o the_o glorious_a demonstration_n of_o the_o divine_a nature_n therefore_o it_o be_v that_o our_o saviour_n who_o have_v multiply_v the_o bread_n and_o turn_v the_o water_n into_o wine_n at_o other_o feast_n and_o for_o other_o occasion_n have_v do_v nothing_o so_o in_o this_o here_o but_o make_v use_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n produce_v natural_o and_o such_o as_o they_o be_v in_o their_o ordinary_a

altogether_o suspect_v for_o it_o be_v credible_a that_o if_o our_o saviour_n will_v have_v authorize_v it_o by_o miracle_n he_o will_v have_v rather_o employ_v they_o in_o the_o first_o supper_n when_o the_o establish_n of_o the_o new_a sacrament_n be_v in_o agitation_n final_o as_o the_o sacrament_n which_o be_v institute_v to_o be_v ordinary_a and_o perpetual_a in_o the_o judaical_a

and_o perpetual_a in_o the_o christian_a church_n ought_v not_o to_o consist_v in_o extraordinary_a and_o miraculous_a sign_n or_o operation_n moreover_o the_o eucharist_n succeed_v the_o eat_n of_o

of_o it_o or_o think_v of_o it_o from_o whence_o follow_v that_o whosoever_o know_v not_o jesus_n christ_n be_v incapable_a of_o this_o eat_n now_o i_o need_v not_o repeat_v that_o which_o be_v

the_o end_n of_o the_o supper_n be_v that_o we_o declare_v the_o death_n of_o the_o lord_n this_o require_v the_o historical_a intelligence_n of_o the_o particularity_n of_o it_o whereof_o none_o be_v of_o any_o small_a importance_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o know_v in_o general_a or_o summary_o that_o jesus_n christ_n be_v dead_a but_o we_o must_v have_v a_o distinct_a knowledge_n of_o
