they_o be_v no_o more_o nestorian_n than_o themselves_o nor_o so_o much_o neither_o and_o now_o good_a man_n they_o say_v it_o be_v true_a they_o do_v represent_v christ_n only_o by_o his_o humane_a

they_o conceive_v in_o their_o mind_n that_o he_o who_o be_v bear_v be_v true_o god_n as_o well_o as_o man_n alas_o for_o they_o that_o they_o shall_v ever_o be_v charge_v with_o the_o worship_n of_o

this_o they_o very_o wise_o pass_v by_o and_o their_o distinction_n of_o the_o image_n from_o the_o principal_a can_v serve_v their_o turn_n since_o the_o image_n receive_v the_o worship_n due_a to_o

as_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v real_o sanctify_v by_o the_o divine_a nature_n so_o by_o institution_n this_o holy_a image_n be_v make_v divine_a through_o sanctification_n by_o grace_n here_o the_o nicene_n council_n quarrel_n with_o they_o for_o call_v the_o eucharist_n a_o image_n contrary_a as_o they_o say_v to_o the_o scripture_n and_o father_n but_o they_o be_v as_o much_o to_o be_v

suppose_v that_o to_o be_v enough_o to_o answer_v the_o argument_n beside_o these_o particular_a argument_n against_o the_o image_n of_o christ_n the_o council_n of_o constantinople_n use_v many_o

easy_o answer_v that_o this_o argument_n do_v prove_v no_o more_o his_o worship_n in_o the_o element_n than_o in_o a_o turf_n or_o any_o other_o piece_n of_o bread_n for_o christ_n be_v god_n be_v every_o where_o present_a and_o if_o his_o presence_n only_o may_v be_v ground_n of_o give_v adoration_n to_o that_o wherein_o he_o be_v present_a we_o may_v as_o lawful_o worship_n the_o sun_n or_o the_o earth_n or_o any_o other_o thing_n as_o they_o do_v the_o sacrament_n for_o he_o be_v present_a in_o all_o of_o they_o but_o our_o worship_n be_v not_o to_o be_v guide_v by_o our_o own_o fancy_n but_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o we_o have_v a_o command_n for_o worship_v of_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o till_o we_o see_v one_o as_o to_o his_o presence_n in_o the_o sacrament_n we_o ought_v not_o to_o think_v the_o one_o parallel_n with_o the_o other_o and_o by_o this_o the_o weakness_n of_o his_o retort_v the_o argument_n in_o the_o arrian_n behalf_n so_o he_o call_v those_o who_o believe_v christ_n to_o be_v a_o pure_a man_n against_o those_o who_o worship_n the_o son_n of_o god_n will_v appear_v for_o our_o worship_n do_v not_o mere_o depend_v upon_o our_o belief_n but_o upon_o the_o divine_a command_n and_o therefore_o those_o who_o have_v deny_v the_o one_o have_v yet_o contend_v for_o the_o other_o 2._o the_o one_o give_v we_o a_o sufficient_a reason_n for_o our_o worship_n but_o the_o other_o do_v not_o there_o can_v be_v no_o great_a reason_n for_o give_v his_o person_n adoration_n than_o that_o he_o be_v the_o eternal_a son_n of_o god_n but_o what_o equivalent_a reason_n to_o this_o be_v there_o suppose_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v real_o convert_v into_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n all_o that_o i_o can_v believe_v then_o present_a be_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o what_o then_o be_v that_o the_o object_n of_o our_o adoration_n do_v we_o terminate_v our_o worship_n upon_o his_o humane_a nature_n and_o be_v it_o ever_o more_o proper_o so_o than_o in_o die_v be_v it_o not_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v set_v forth_o in_o the_o eucharist_n and_o be_v his_o body_n present_v any_o other_o way_n than_o as_o it_o be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o institution_n but_o it_o may_v be_v they_o will_v say_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v hypostatical_o unite_v with_o the_o divine_a nature_n one_o can_v be_v present_a without_o the_o other_o that_o indeed_o be_v a_o good_a argument_n to_o prove_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n can_v be_v there_o by_o transubstantiation_n for_o if_o the_o bread_n be_v convert_v into_o that_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v hypostatical_o unite_v with_o the_o divine_a nature_n than_o the_o conversion_n be_v not_o mere_o into_o the_o body_n but_o into_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o then_o christ_n have_v as_o many_o body_n hypostatical_o unite_v to_o he_o as_o there_o be_v element_n consecrate_a and_o so_o all_o the_o accident_n of_o the_o bread_n belong_v to_o that_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v hypostatical_o unite_v with_o the_o divine_a nature_n nay_o to_o make_v the_o element_n the_o object_n of_o divine_a worship_n as_o they_o do_v they_o must_v suppose_v a_o hypostatical_a union_n between_o they_o and_o the_o divine_a nature_n of_o christ_n for_o if_o the_o only_a reason_n of_o join_v the_o humane_a nature_n with_o the_o divine_a in_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n as_o the_o object_n of_o our_o worship_n be_v the_o hypostatical_a union_n of_o those_o nature_n then_o we_o can_v upon_o no_o other_o account_n make_v those_o element_n the_o object_n of_o worship_n but_o by_o suppose_v such_o a_o union_n between_o christ_n and_o they_o but_o i_o suppose_v they_o will_v not_o venture_v to_o say_v that_o christ_n be_v hypostatical_o unite_v with_o the_o shape_n figure_n and_o colour_n of_o the_o bread_n for_o they_o will_v have_v nothing_o else_o to_o remain_v after_o consecration_n in_o spite_n of_o all_o the_o reason_n and_o sense_n of_o the_o world_n but_o mere_o those_o accident_n 5._o and_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n determine_v that_o the_o same_o divine_a worship_n which_o we_o give_v to_o god_n himself_o be_v in_o express_a term_n to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o most_o holy_a sacrament_n and_o pronounce_v a_o anathema_n against_o all_o who_o deny_v it_o and_o what_o be_v the_o holy_a sacrament_n but_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n according_a to_o they_o under_o the_o accident_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o although_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v believe_v to_o be_v there_o be_v the_o reason_n of_o their_o worship_n yet_o the_o worship_n be_v give_v to_o the_o element_n upon_o that_o account_n §_o 3._o but_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o so_o great_a importance_n controversy_n to_o make_v it_o as_o clear_a as_o the_o nature_n of_o the_o thing_n will_v allow_v i_o shall_v yet_o further_o prove_v that_o upon_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o roman_a church_n no_o man_n can_v be_v assure_v that_o he_o do_v not_o commit_v idolatry_n every_o time_n he_o give_v adoration_n to_o the_o host_n and_o i_o hope_v this_o will_v abundant_o add_v to_o the_o discover_v the_o disparity_n between_o the_o worship_n give_v to_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n and_o that_o which_o be_v give_v to_o the_o eucharist_n upon_o supposition_n of_o transubstantiation_n but_o before_o i_o come_v to_o this_o i_o shall_v endeavour_v to_o give_v a_o true_a account_n of_o the_o state_n of_o the_o controversy_n between_o we_o which_o i_o shall_v do_v in_o these_o particular_n 1._o the_o question_n between_o we_o

not_o whether_o the_o person_n of_o christ_n visible_o appear_v to_o we_o in_o any_o place_n aught_o to_o have_v divine_a honour_n give_v to_o he_o for_o suppose_v sufficient_a evidence_n of_o such_o a_o appearance_n we_o make_v no_o more_o question_n of_o this_o than_o we_o do_v of_o the_o former_a neither_o do_v we_o say_v that_o we_o need_v a_o particular_a command_n in_o such_o a_o case_n to_o

but_o what_o be_v either_o god_n or_o hypostatical_o unite_v to_o the_o divine_a nature_n but_o be_v there_o not_o the_o same_o reason_n of_o believe_v christ_n to_o be_v present_a as_o see_v he_o i_o
