Paul 1 Cor. 7.14 That the children of the faithful are sanctified But if they understand by their sanctification that they are born without sin they do directly oppugne S. Paul who affirmeth Eph. 1. that we are all born the Sons of wrath Yea S. Paul in the self-same place saith that the unbelieving Women is sanctified by the believing Man and yet I hope they will not say that she obtains thereby the full remission of her sins Gen. 17.14 The uncircumcised Man-childe whose flesh of his fore-skin is not circumcised that Soul shall be cut off from his people But Circumcision was not more necessary to the Israelites than Baptism to the Christians therfore c. ¶ See S.

Pacianus lib. de Baptismo S. Ambr. lib. de Sacram. S. Hierom. contra Lucifer And lastly S. Cypr. lib. 2. epist 1. speaking both of baptism and confirmation saith That they may be sanctified and be the sons of God if they be born in both Sacraments XXXIX That the bread of the Supper of our Lord was but a figure or remembrance of the body of Christ received by faith and not his true and very body COntrary both to the expresse words and truth of their own Bible Luke 22.15 With desire I have desired to eat this passeover with you before I suffer Now to refer these words to a figurative eating onely by Faith were most absurd for we cannot say that Jesus Christ could receive or eat himself in this sense sith all Divinity forbids us to admit Faith in the Son of God Therefore that Pasche which he so greatly desired to eat with his disciples before he suffered was the Pasche of his own true body Luke 22.16 For I say unto you I will not any more drink of the fruit of the vine until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God Words of wonderfull force and which cannot be understood figuratively no more than the former it being a thing as clear as the Sun that of material bread and drink there is no use at all above in Heaven John 6.51 I am the living bread which came down from Heaven if any man eat of this bread he shall live for ever And the bread that I will give is my flesh which I will give for the life of the world Beza is very angry when we ask him If the bread that came down from Heaven be living or life-giving bread He willingly grants us the latter but cannot endure to hear tell of the former and therefore translateth life-giving instead of living But this is absurd for the Sun is life-giving but is not living and being granted to be living what else is it but his body And note withall that thus our Lord spake of this blessed bread before he gave it Matth. 26.26 Take eat this is my body And Luke 22.19 This is my body which is given for you What I pray can be spoken more plain Notwithstanding they will needs maintain and affirm that what he gave and they received was nothing else but bare bread Note also that our Lord spake this at the very giving thereof 1 Cor. 10.16 The cup of blessing which we blesse is it not the Communion of the bloud of Christ The bread which we break is it not the Communion of the body of Christ And 1 Cor. 11. he addeth He that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh damnation to himself not discerning the Lords body Thus both before our Lord gave it at the very giving of it and his Apostles and Disciples after he had given it unto them and they to others all of them call it expresly our Lords B●dy Finally against their true and reall receiving of Christ by Faith I say Either the Soul ascendeth to Heaven there to feed on Christ by faith which Calvin confesseth or else Christ descendeth to earth to feed the same Not the first
Yea it were a thing both ridiculous and impious to make them Trayclears Carriers of Drugs or Paracelsians Mark 16.18 They shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover But first our Reformers are no true Priests Secondly they lay not their hands upon the sick Thirdly they anoint them not with oyl in the name of the Lord as S. James willeth Let them say the truth then and shame the devil are not they sick in their wits who will oppose so plain Scriptures ¶ See the Fathers that affirm the same Origen hom 2. in Levit. S.

Kellison handling this Question touching the Mission of the Reformers proveth learnedly in his Reply page 7. 44. that this foundation being disproved the whole frame of their Church and Religion falls yea that they have neither true faith nor worship of God and his reason is this if faith depend of hearing hearing of Preaching Preaching and administration of Sacraments of Ministers and Preachers and Preachers and Ministers of their mission where there is no mission as they have none there can be no true faith nor lawful administration of Sacraments and consequently no Religion Therefore vocation is necessary in the Church 1 Tim. 1.6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God which is in thee by the putting on thy hands How plain the Holy Scripture is against them But they reply that laying on of hands is not needful to them who have already in them the spirit of God and inward annointing of the holy Ghost To which very question Theodoret maketh answer that God commanded Moses Num. 27. to lay his hands upon Josue whereas by the Testimony of God himself Josue had already in him the spirit of God S. Paul although he were called immediately from Heaven yet was afterward sent with laying on of hands Act. 13.3 Heb. 5.4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself but he that is called of God as was Aaron Here our adversaries reply again that Aaron had no external vocation but this is easily solved for Aaron was the first of his Order and therefore could not have his calling by succession and whose case is far unlike to our Reformers unlesse they will confesse also that they are the first of their Order wherein they shall be easily believed See more Acts 13. 2 Tim. 1.6 1 Tim. 5.22 2 Tim. 1.8 Num. 27.23 ¶ See also the holy Fathers that affirm the same S.

Cyp. ep ad Magnum Optatus Milevit the place begins Ne quis Miretur Tertullian in praescript the place begins Edant origines XLIV That the Priests and other Religious persons who have vowed their chastity of God may freely marry notwithstanding their vow COntrary to the expresse words of their own Bible Deut. 23.22 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the Lord thy God thou shalt not slack to pay it for the Lord thy God will surely require it of thee and it would be sin in thee but if thou shalt forbear to vow it shall be no sin in thee Out of which words two things are clearly proved The one that it is both lawfull and laudable to make Vows the other that Vows being once made do binde where otherwise there was no obligation before therefore such as have vowed Chastity may not nor ought not afterwards attempt to marry which if they do they break their Vow 1 Tim. 5.11 12. But the younger widdows refuse for when they have begun to wax wanton against Christ they will marry having damnation because they have cast off their first faith All the ancient Fathers that write upon this place expound these words of the Apostle of the Vow of Chastity or of the faith and promise made to Christ to live continently as is abundantly proved in the Rhemes Testament upon this place 1 Tim. 5.15 For some already turned aside after Satan To marry after the vow of chastity once made is here termed by the Apostle himself turning aside after Sathan And hereupon it is that we call the Religious that after marry as Luther Bucer Peter Martyr and the rest of that lascivious rabble Apostates Gods adulterers incestuous sacrilegious and the like See more Psal 66.16 Numb 6.2.18 Josue 21.26 Ierem. 35.18 Eccl. 5.3 Acts 21.23 ¶ See also the Fathers in confirmation thereof S.

XLV That fasting and abstinence from certain meats is not grounded on holy Scripture nor causeth any spiritual good COntrary to the expresse words of their own Bible Jerem. 35.5 And I set before the Sons of the house of the Rechabites pots full of Wine and wine-Wine-cups and I said unto them drink ye Wine But they said we will drink no Wine for Jonadab the Son of Rechab our Father commanded us saying Ye shall drink no Wine neither ye nor your sons for ever Thus have we obeyed Jonadab our Father in all that he hath charged us Therefore fasting is grounded upon holy Scripture Luk. 1.15 For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord and shall drink neither Wine nor strong drink Thus was abstinence not onely foretold but also prescribed by the Angel which plainly proveth that it was both a worthy thing and also an act of religion in S. John Bapt. as it was in the Nazarites and Rechabites afore-mentioned Acts 13.3 And when they had fasted and prayed and laid their hands on them they sent them away Hence the Church of God hath sufficient ground and warrant for the using and prescribing of publick fasts which was not fasting from sin as our Reformers forsooth pretend for such fasting they were ever bound to keep and that at such times or seasons as the Church pleased to prescribe as in Lent or the like and not when every man lists or the toy takes him in the head as Arius and other Hereticks did teach testified by S. Aug. Haeres 53. Matt. 17.21 Howbeit this kinde of devils goeth not out but by prayer and fasting Behold the great force of prayer and fasting able to expell the very devil Therefore it causeth great spiritual good See more

Remigius saith The flesh which the Word of God took in the Virgins womb and the bread consecrated in the Church are one Body XL. That we ought to receive under both kinds and that one alone sufficeth not COntrary to the expresse words of their own Bible John 6.51 If any man eat of this bread he shall live for ever and the bread which I will give is my flesh Here everlasting life is promised by our Lord himself to him that eats of this bread onely Therefore one kinde doth suffice Luke 24.30.8.35 Christ at Emaus communicated to his Disciples under one kinde Both S. Augustine and Theophilact expound this place of the B. Sacrament in the same sence lib. de consens Evang cap. 35. S. Chrysost hom 17. operis imperfecti S. Thomas of Aquin and many others But they will alleadge to the contrary that of S. John Vnless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his bloud you shall not have life in you The answer hereto is very easie which is that the conjunction and is there taken disjunctively instead of or as is learnedly observed by Doctour Kellison in his reply to M. Sutcliff p. 189. Again Christ in those words teacheth us the precept and not the manner of the precept that is to say he commands us to receive his body and his bloud without determining whether under one kinde or under both as the Counsel of Trent declareth For he that said Vnless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his bloud you shall not have life in you hath also said If any one eat of this bread he shall live for ever And he that said He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my bloud hath life everlasting hath also said The bread which I will give is my flesh for the life of the World He that said Who so eateth my flesh and drinketh my bloud dwelleth in me and I in him hath likewise said He that eateth this bread shall live for ever Therefore one alone doth suffice See more Acts 2.42 They further hold XLI That there is not in the Church a true and proper Sacrifice and that the Mass is not a Sacrifice COntrary to the express words of their own Bible Mac. 1.11 From the rising of the sun even to the going down of the same my Name shall be great among the Gentiles and in every place Incense shall be offered to my Name and a pure offering But this Sacrifice or pure Offering cannot be understood of Christ upon the Cross as they would have it which was offered onely once and in one place and then also not among the Gentiles nor yet can be ever iterated therefore neither is nor can be other than the dayly Sacrifice of the Mass Psal 110. we 109. 4. The Lord hath sworn and will not repent Thou art a Priest for ever after the order of Melchisedech But Melchisedechs Sacrifice was made in bread and wine therefore it must either be granted that our Saviour doth now sacrifice yea and ever shall in bread and wine above in Heaven which were absurd to say or else that this is meant of the sacrifice of the Mass whereon the Eternity of his Priest-hood doth depend on earth Nor can this be in a spiritual sort onely for that would not make him a Priest of any certain order as Melchisedech was Luke 22.19 This is my body which is given for you Which words do plainly prove not onely that Christs body is truly present but withal so present as that it is given offered and sacrificed for us For Christ saith not which is given to you broken to you or shed to you but for you Which clearly sheweth it to be a sacrifice it being evident that one would never say of the Sacrament in the quality of a Sacrament that it is given for man but to man that is to say that a man receiveth it and contrarywise of a Sacrifice that it is offered not to man but for man See more Heb. 7.15 16 17.

Greg. Nissen orat 4. de Resurrectione proving that our Saviour gave his body and bloud in sacrifice for us in his last supper saith excellently That a man cannot eat the sheep unless the slaughter go before and yet averreth this to have been done by Christ in his last supper XLII That Sacramental Vnction is not to be used to the sick COntrary to the express words of their own Bible James 5.14 Is any sick among you Let him call for the Elders of the Church and let them pray over him anointing him with oyl in the name of the Lord and the prayer of faith shall save the sick and the Lord shall raise him up and if he have committed sins they shall be forgiven him Hardly is there any Sacrament whereof the matter the minister and the effect are more expresly specified in all the Scripture then of this The form is the prayer Let them pray over him The matter the oyl Anointing him with oyl The Minister a Priest or Elder of the Church Let him call for the Elders of the Church The primary effect is the forgiveness of sins and the secondary the easing of the sick in body saying And the Lord shall raise him up and if he have committed sins they shall be forgiven him Therefore Sacramental Unction is to be used to the sick Mark 6.13 And they anointed with oyl many that were sick and healed them Where it is clear that the Apostles themselves put in practice this holy Unction Which Beza confesseth in his Annotations saying that it was a Symbole of admirable supernatural virtue And had he not reason so to say For oyl of it self could not be naturally the Antidote of all diseases and albeit it were yet the Apostles were not sent to practise Phisick but to preach the Gospel
