A56393	Reasons for abrogating the test imposed upon all members of Parliament, anno 1678, Octob. 30 in these words, I A.B. do solemnly and sincerely, in the presence of God, profess, testifie, and declare, that I do believe that in the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper there is not any transubstantiation of the elements of bread and wine into the body and blood of Christ, at, or after the consecration thereof by any person whatsoever, and that the invocation or adoration of the Virgin Mary, or any other saint, and the sacrifice of the mass, as they are now used in the Church of Rome, are superstitious and idolatrous : first written for the author's own satisfaction, and now published for the benefit of all others whom it may concern.	Parker, Samuel, 1640-1688.	1688 (1688)	Wing P467; ESTC R5001	62,716	138

when_o notwithstanding_o this_o decree_n they_o fall_v into_o new_a dispute_n they_o be_v check_v by_o the_o famous_a bishop_n of_o bitunto_fw-la who_o be_v one_o of_o the_o chief_a compiler_n of_o

in_o the_o four_o chapter_n where_o transubstantiation_n be_v decree_v the_o canon_n run_v thus_o that_o by_o the_o consecration_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n there_o be_v a_o conversion_n of_o

which_o conversion_n be_v fit_o and_o proper_o call_v by_o the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n transubstantiation_n in_o all_o which_o the_o council_n only_o appropriate_v the_o word_n transubstantiation_n to_o express_v the_o real_a presence_n which_o it_o have_v before_o determine_v in_o the_o first_o chapter_n not_o to_o be_v after_o a_o natural_a way_n of_o existence_n as_o christ_n sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n but_o sacramental_a after_o a_o ineffable_a manner_n though_o here_o some_o peevish_o object_n the_o inconsistence_n of_o the_o council_n with_o

the_o eternal_a word_n from_o the_o father_n be_v ineffable_a and_o yet_o be_v express_v by_o the_o word_n generation_n and_o that_o the_o union_n of_o the_o divine_a and_o humane_a nature_n be_v

that_o this_o council_n seem_v to_o have_v define_v no_o more_o than_o the_o council_n of_o nice_a do_v in_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o bless_a trinity_n in_o express_v the_o unity_n of_o the_o

〈◊〉_d but_o as_o for_o any_o philosophical_a notion_n of_o the_o mystery_n the_o church_n never_o presume_v to_o define_v it_o and_o this_o be_v the_o definition_n of_o the_o council_n of_o trent_n of_o the_o real_a presence_n that_o there_o be_v a_o conversion_n of_o the_o substance_n under_o the_o species_n or_o appearance_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n which_o the_o church_n have_v think_v
