christendom_n tell_v we_o that_o such_o command_v as_o be_v give_v to_o the_o apostle_n be_v never_o esteem_v to_o oblige_v their_o successor_n three_o when_o the_o matter_n command_v be_v common_a

as_o appear_v v_o 27._o to_o the_o end_n of_o the_o chapter_n and_o mow_v by_o this_o authority_n i_o grant_v that_o all_o christian_n be_v here_o command_v sometime_o in_o there_o live_v to_o

before_o the_o consecration_n of_o the_o chalice_n though_o it_o induce_v no_o more_o neccssity_n of_o receive_v the_o host_n then_o the_o chalice_n yet_o it_o show_v evident_o that_o if_o the_o

leave_v to_o be_v peruse_v in_o their_o particular_a treatise_n of_o this_o point_n i_o answer_v brief_o and_o clear_o that_o in_o this_o text_n be_v comprehend_v a_o necessity_n both_o of_o eat_v and_o drink_v that_o be_v there_o be_v a_o general_a command_n give_v to_o the_o whole_a gencrality_n of_o christian_n to_o receive_v the_o body_n of_o christ_n by_o way_n of_o eat_v and_o his_o blood_n by_o way_n of_o drink_v and_o consequent_o of_o receive_v under_o both_o kind_n which_o must_v always_o be_v perform_v by_o the_o general_a body_n of_o christian_n that_o they_o may_v have_v life_n in_o they_o and_o that_o this_o may_v be_v perform_v there_o be_v a_o particular_a necessity_n put_v upon_o every_o particular_a christian_a to_o concur_v to_o the_o execution_n of_o this_o general_a command_n not_o that_o every_o one_o in_o particular_a be_v oblige_v both_o to_o eat_v and_o drink_v real_o this_o sacrament_n but_o that_o some_o eat_n other_o drink_v other_o do_v both_o each_o particular_a confer_v to_o the_o performance_n of_o this_o command_n of_o eat_v and_o drink_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n whereunto_o the_o generality_n be_v absolute_o oblige_v so_o that_o this_o whole_a command_n be_v to_o be_v perform_v by_o all_o as_o joint_o and_o united_o consider_v and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v thus_o joint_o do_v by_o all_o each_o particular_a be_v oblige_v to_o some_o part_n of_o it_o thereby_o concur_v partial_o to_o the_o whole_a performance_n 13._o thus_o when_o our_o saviour_n command_v his_o apostle_n to_o teach_v and_o baptize_v all_o nation_n he_o give_v a_o general_a and_o universal_a command_n to_o they_o and_o their_o successor_n to_o perform_v this_o work_n joint_o among_o they_o not_o command_v each_o one_o in_o particular_a to_o preach_v and_o baptize_v the_o whole_a world_n for_o that_o neither_o be_v nor_o can_v moral_o speak_v have_v be_v do_v but_o that_o this_o may_v be_v do_v by_o all_o each_o one_o in_o

of_o this_o command_n either_o to_o convert_v all_o nation_n or_o any_o one_o in_o particular_a each_o one_o be_v oblige_v to_o labour_v towards_o the_o conversion_n of_o some_o part_n or_o other_o of_o the_o world_n so_o that_o by_o the_o labour_n of_o each_o at_o last_o the_o whole_a work_n may_v be_v accomplish_v thus_o our_o saviour_n send_v his_o disciple_n say_v go_v and_o cure_v all_o disease_n etc._n etc._n that_o be_v each_o one_o cure_v some_o 10.9_o all_o may_v be_v cure_v among_o they_o thus_o after_o his_o resurrection_n he_o foretell_v what_o cure_n and_o miracle_n shall_v be_v do_v by_o his_o disciple_n not_o that_o each_o shall_v do_v all_o these_o miracle_n but_o that_o among_o they_o such_o miracle_n shall_v be_v do_v and_o thus_o the_o holy_a evangelist_n affirm_v that_o the_o apostle_n of_o christ_n preach_v every_o where_o not_o that_o each_o preach_v every_o where_o but_o that_o all_o of_o they_o together_o be_v spread_v over_o the_o whole_a world_n and_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n may_v it_o now_o be_v say_v that_o christian_n eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n not_o that_o each_o do_v both_o but_o that_o it_o be_v do_v among_o they_o by_o reason_n that_o each_o in_o particular_a be_v oblige_v either_o to_o both_o or_o either_o of_o they_o and_o so_o the_o whole_a precept_n will_v be_v perform_v among_o they_o neither_o seem_v the_o context_n of_o s._n john_n to_o exact_v more_o than_o this_o for_o in_o what_o go_v immediate_o before_o the_o doubt_n which_o the_o jew_n have_v there_o to_o which_o our_o saviour_n answer_v in_o this_o text_n be_v not_o whether_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o salvation_n for_o every_o one_o both_o to_o eat_v the_o flesh_n and_o drink_v the_o blood_n of_o christ_n for_o he_o have_v as_o then_o make_v no_o mention_n at_o all_o of_o drink_v his_o blood_n but_o they_o only_o doubt_v how_o his_o flesh_n can_v be_v real_o eat_v how_o can_v this_o man_n say_v they_o give_v we_o his_o stesh_n to_o eat_v 6._o so_o that_o our_o saviour_n answer_n to_o this_o doubt_n of_o they_o be_v full_o sufficient_a by_o tell_v they_o that_o it_o be_v not_o only_o possible_a but_o
