to_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n or_o to_o the_o justice_n of_o god_n especial_o if_o he_o shall_v punish_v we_o for_o be_v so_o deceive_v i_o refer_v to_o any_o man_n of_o reason_n to_o determine_v i_o

so_o many_o contradiction_n that_o it_o be_v no_o proper_a object_n for_o almighty_a power_n but_o this_o i_o must_v desire_v you_o to_o observe_v that_o if_o a_o substantial_a change_n be_v make_v of_o the_o element_n by_o the_o word_n of_o consecration_n than_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v manifest_o different_a from_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n whereon_o it_o be_v found_v for_o nothing_o can_v be_v clear_a from_o the_o text_n than_o that_o our_o saviour_n give_v the_o bread_n and_o command_v they_o to_o take_v and_o eat_v that_o be_v bread_n the_o word_n of_o its_o

unto_o christian_n as_o that_o of_o the_o passover_n be_v unto_o the_o jew_n that_o as_o they_o do_v believe_v in_o a_o messiah_n that_o be_v to_o come_v and_o of_o who_o their_o sacrifice_n be_v

now_o believe_v in_o a_o messiah_n already_o come_v shall_v in_o a_o parallel_n manner_n become_v partaker_n of_o the_o same_o oblation_n and_o by_o a_o external_a act_n like_o unto_o what_o they_o do_v in_o every_o circumstance_n we_o shall_v obtain_v the_o benefit_n of_o that_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n and_o real_o and_o true_o be_v make_v partaker_n of_o it_o and_o therefore_o our_o saviour_n christ_n appoint_v that_o bread_n and_o wine_n shall_v be_v receive_v by_o his_o disciple_n in_o the_o place_n and_o stead_n of_o his_o body_n and_o blood_n which_o be_v the_o real_a sacrifice_n that_o he_o offer_v unto_o god_n for_o man_n and_o very_o improper_a thing_n to_o be_v actual_o eat_v or_o drink_v by_o christian_n and_o therefore_o he_o call_v the_o bread_n his_o body_n and_o the_o wine_n his_o blood_n not_o as_o be_v real_o the_o thing_n themselves_o but_o as_o institute_v by_o he_o to_o represent_v they_o to_o we_o so_o that_o by_o a_o due_a participation_n of_o these_o creature_n according_a unto_o christ_n appointment_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o all_o christian_n be_v partaker_n of_o that_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o offer_v to_o god_n for_o they_o and_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v due_o consecrate_a and_o receive_v in_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o sacrament_n the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v real_o and_o true_o receive_v by_o the_o

respect_n of_o the_o receiver_n who_o take_v they_o not_o for_o food_n but_o as_o a_o mystery_n in_o religion_n and_o therefore_o they_o do_v not_o receive_v they_o in_o their_o common_a notion_n as_o they_o be_v bread_n and_o wine_n that_o be_v proper_a food_n to_o nourish_v or_o sustain_v the_o body_n but_o as_o they_o represent_v the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o be_v appropriate_v by_o faith_n to_o nourish_v and_o support_v the_o soul_n and_o since_o then_o this_o sacrament_n be_v ordain_v to_o become_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o christian_n as_o st._n augustin●_n tell_v we_o 22●_n and_o that_o those_o patriarch_n of_o old_a who_o believe_v in_o a_o messiah_n that_o be_v to_o come_v be_v as_o actual_a partaker_n of_o that_o sacrifice_n which_o he_o have_v offer_v as_o we_o can_v be_v for_o they_o all_o eat_v the_o same_o spiritual_a meat_n and_o they_o all_o drink_v the_o same_o spiritual_a drink_n 1_o cor._n x._o 3._o neither_o be_v there_o salvation_n in_o any_o other_o

not_o frame_v yet_o nor_o actual_o bear_v it_o be_v therefore_o rational_a to_o conclude_v that_o we_o be_v still_o partaker_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o same_o manner_n that_o they_o be_v not_o in_o a_o literal_a but_o a_o spiritual_a participation_n since_o the_o reception_n of_o they_o by_o faith_n only_o be_v full_o sufficient_a to_o the_o salvation_n of_o the_o

this_o figurative_a expression_n in_o that_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o eucharist_n be_v institute_v by_o our_o saviour_n in_o the_o place_n of_o the_o jewish_a passover_n which_o be_v now_o to_o

when_o the_o lord_n pass_v over_o the_o house_n of_o our_o father_n and_o slay_v the_o egyptian_n and_o again_o after_o supper_n be_v end_v distribute_v bread_n and_o wine_n to_o every_o one_o in_o

a_o religious_a mystery_n it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v receive_v as_o mere_a or_o common_a bread_n by_o any_o true_a or_o faithful_a christian_a but_o we_o very_o believe_v that_o the_o sacrifice_n of_o

in_o the_o most_o literal_a sense_n that_o they_o can_v bear_v can_v have_v no_o relation_n far_o than_o to_o his_o body_n only_o and_o this_o too_o in_o the_o most_o strict_a and_o limit_a notion_n of_o a_o sacrifice_n wherein_o mankind_n be_v make_v partaker_n of_o it_o since_o as_o yourselves_o confess_v 26._o the_o design_n of_o the_o institution_n be_v only_o this_o that_o all_o man_n may_v

to_o be_v very_o well_o consider_v for_o it_o be_v very_o evident_a that_o it_o do_v not_o contain_v the_o essence_n of_o a_o man_n since_o that_o consist_v chief_o in_o his_o rational_a soul_n that_o

he_o unite_v his_o divine_a unto_o our_o human_a nature_n even_o in_o its_o great_a purity_n and_o perfection_n but_o to_o expect_v that_o this_o divinity_n shall_v be_v immediate_o unite_v unto_o
