is they wil not saye as y ● Apostle doth namely that it is bread No then they wyl say that we hang all by reason the mater beynge a mater of fayth Wher as they themselues altogether hang on reason as though Chryst can not be able to doe that which he promiseth bred stil in substaūce remaynyng as the Accidentes doe except it be transubstāciate Is not thys trow you to make it a mater of reason and to hedge gods power in within the limits of reason Yf Chrystes wordes that folowe which is geuē for you be to bee vnderstande for whyche shalbe geuen or shalbe betrayed for you and not so precyselye as they be spoken for that were to make Chryst a lyar why is it so hainous a mater with y e papists because we doe not so precyselye take the wordes immedyatly goyng before namelye thys is my body as to admitte that if there be bred then Chryst is a lyar Myght not we reason and saye then if Christes body at y ● tyme was not betrayed as in dede it was not nor hys bloud shed thē is Chryst a lyar But here they wyll saye all men may knowe that Chryst by the present tence meante the future tence and in the scrypture it is a most vsual thyng so to take tence for tence And I praye you why maye not we saye that al menne maye know it is most common in scripture to geue vnto signes y ● nams of the thynges whych they signifye And no man is so foolyshe but he knoweth that Chryst thē instituted a sacrament whole sacramentally to be vnderstande that is that the sygne or visible sacrament shold haue not only y ● name of the thing signified but also some similitude there with or els it were no sacrament But take bred awaye as the papystes do leauing there but the accidentes onely whych do not feede the bodye and then what shallresēble and represente vnto vs Chrystes body broken for the fode of the soule As wyne com forteth the hart so doth Christs bloud shed on the crosse comfort the soule But take wyne awaye by transubstanciacy on as the papystes doe and tell me what similitude remaineth None at also no sacrament at all so Christs institucion is taken away Wel doe theireiect gods commaundement for their tradicions sake Our fayth therefore is that the supper of the lord is y ● sacrament of Chrystes bodi bloud These wordes thys is my bodi which is brokē for you this is mi bloud of the new testament whyche is shed for your synnes are moste true words and plaine accordig to Christes meaning to al them whych doe as he byddeth them that is to all suche as take eate and drynke Which wordes the papistes kepe in theyr purse or els theyr priuate masses could not stande To such I say as take and eate thys sacramēt in sorowinge for their synfullyfe past and purposyng to amende aboue al things remembryng and beleuyng that Chrystes bodye was broken for their synnes and his bloud shed for their iniquities all suche I saye as verely as they see take taist and eate bread and drynke wyne whyche goeth into theyr bodi fedeth it and nourisheth it euen so verely the soule spirite by fayth receaueth not onelye Chrystes bodye broken or hys bloud shed for the fleshe profyteth nothyng it is the sprite that quickeneth sayth Christ but euē whole Chryste into whom they are incorporate and made one wyth hym fleshe of hys fleshe and bone of hys bones That is to saye as Chrystes body is immortal and glorious euen so are theirs now by fayth and hope and at the daye of the Lord they shal be in very dede Then whych thyng what can be greater Thys we teache and beeleue concernyng thys sacrament dete styng and abhorryng the horrible error of transubstanciacion whych maketh bread and wyne our God and Chryste and causeth men to be gasers gapers worshyppers yea ydolators rather then takers and eaters as Chryst cōmaundeth and whiche maketh Christs sacrifice of none effect as now shalbe shewed by gods grace For thys shall suffyse to the declaracyon of our faith concerning the Lordes supper whervnto agreeth the Catholik church and al the fathers As full well thou mayst see in the byshop of Canterburyes boke whych is farre from being answered eyther by the byshop of Worceter his boke in english or Marcus 〈◊〉 C. in latyn y ● thou nedest nomore to confyrme thy fayth in thys mater but to reade them wyth an indifferēt mynd not beyng addict otherwyse thē to the desyer of the trueth As for thys doctryne of transubstanciacyon it is a newe founde thyng about a. 600. yeares olde euen then broughte oute whan Gatā was lattē lose after a. 1000 yeares that was bounde Euen then was it establyshed whan there was more mischefe among the prelates specially the pops about the sea of Rome who cold catche it then euer there was among the emperours for the empyre In the primitiue church popes wer martird for Christs spouses safe that is the church but now one poysoned another and one slew another for y e rose coloured whore of babilōs safe that is y ● popysh churche In. 160. yeares there was nere hand 50. popes wheras in no such tyme therwer aboue 33. emperours And in the middes of this miserable state tyme thys doctryne of transubstāciacion was the popes beginning as they might haue ley sure frō cōspiring agaynst prynces one agaynst another to establish it as the very principal pilloure of al their power and no meruel For thys beyng admytted then haue they power ouer Chryste the king of al kiges y ● he be wher they wyll whan they wyl and aslong as they wil vnder their power Where throughe the other must nedes folow y ● if thei haue power ouer Christe and that in heauē to brig him down at their pleasure Much more thē oueral earth emperours kigs prices people Yea euē ouer y e deuil purgatory and hel haue they full power and iurisdiction being now goddes in earth whyche sytte in the holy place euen as god yea aboue God to make what artycle of fayth shal please them as they haue done thys of transubstanciacion whyche myghte aswel be denied as graunted saith Duns one of their own doctors and master Gabriel also if it so pleased the holy father and his spouse the church of Rome Before thys tyme all the fathers diligence labour and care was to call men to the receauynge of thys sacrament for the cōfirmacion of their fayth that as verelye as they dyd eate bread and drynke wyne here so shold they not doubt but that by fayth thei did fede on the body of Chryst broken for theyr synnes and on hys bloud shed for their iniquytyes And therfore some times wold they call the sacrament bread a figure or a sygne some tyme would they call it the body and bloud of our
