of_o faith_n for_o they_o seal_v the_o promise_n by_o which_o so_o that_o faith_n be_v adjoin_v unto_o they_o we_o be_v justify_v if_o a_o man_n demand_v what_o it_o be_v that_o god_n promise_v unto_o we_o sacrament_n what_o be_v the_o chief_a promise_n that_o be_v seal_v in_o a_o sacrament_n to_o answer_v brief_o it_o be_v that_o he_o will_v be_v our_o god_n the_o which_o when_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v save_v we_o and_o make_v we_o bless_v and_o happy_a this_o be_v the_o promise_n which_o be_v by_o diverse_a outward_a sign_n seal_v in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o this_o we_o have_v in_o the_o book_n of_o genesis_n the_o 17._o 10_o gen._n 17._o 10_o chapter_n where_o circumcision_n be_v give_v whereby_o be_v confirm_v the_o covenant_n make_v between_o god_n and_o abraham_n 33._o jere._n 31._o 33._o the_o sum_n of_o that_o promise_n be_v as_o we_o have_v say_v that_o god_n will_v be_v his_o god_n and_o the_o god_n of_o his_o seed_n the_o very_a which_o thing_n jeremie_n also_o testify_v as_o touch_v the_o new_a covenant_n of_o the_o gospel_n where_o he_o say_v that_o the_o law_n shall_v not_o only_o be_v write_v in_o the_o bowel_n and_o heart_n of_o the_o beléever_n but_o also_o that_o god_n will_v be_v unto_o they_o their_o god_n and_o they_o again_o on_o the_o other_o side_n shall_v be_v unto_o he_o his_o people_n thing_n sacrament_n consist_v of_o two_o thing_n 3_o that_o also_o we_o will_v allow_v which_o be_v common_o say_v that_o the_o sacrament_n consist_v of_o two_o thing_n namely_o of_o outward_a sign_n which_o the_o schoolman_n count_v for_o the_o matter_n and_o of_o the_o thing_n signify_v which_o be_v chief_o express_v by_o the_o word_n adjoin_v unto_o the_o sign_n whence_o we_o may_v gather_v the_o form_n which_o be_v not_o so_o to_o be_v understand_v as_o though_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v signify_v be_v bind_v to_o the_o outward_a sign_n or_o lie_v hide_v under_o they_o otherwise_o as_o many_o as_o shall_v receive_v the_o outward_a element_n shall_v together_o therewithal_o receive_v the_o thing_n signify_v and_o it_o be_v necessary_a signify_v some_o analogy_n must_v be_v keep_v between_o the_o figure_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v that_o between_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v there_o be_v keep_v some_o analogy_n that_o be_v proportion_n and_o conveniency_n for_o if_o sign_n have_v no_o similitude_n with_o those_o thing_n that_o be_v signify_v then_o shall_v they_o not_o be_v sign_n of_o they_o and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o with_o this_o conformity_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v a_o diversity_n between_o that_o which_o be_v signify_v and_o those_o thing_n which_o signify_v which_o augustine_n most_o manifest_o teach_v against_o maximinus_n the_o arrian_n signify_v a_o diversity_n to_o be_v keep_v between_o the_o sign_n and_o the_o thing_n signify_v in_o his_o three_o book_n where_o he_o say_v that_o sacrament_n be_v one_o thing_n and_o signify_v another_o thing_n whereby_o oftentimes_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v 7_o many_o time_n be_v thing_n speak_v of_o sign_n which_o be_v not_o agreeable_a to_o their_o nature_n a_o place_n one_o of_o the_o 1._o john_n 5._o 7_o that_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v attribute_v unto_o the_o sign_n agree_v in_o no_o case_n with_o the_o nature_n of_o they_o but_o only_o be_v to_o be_v refer_v unto_o the_o thing_n by_o they_o signify_v and_o he_o cit_v a_o place_n out_o of_o the_o epistle_n of_o john_n where_o this_o matter_n be_v manifest_o show_v for_o he_o say_v that_o there_o be_v three_o thing_n which_o bear_v witness_v blood_n water_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o these_o three_o say_v he_o be_v one_o this_o can_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v true_a if_o we_o have_v a_o consideration_n to_o the_o nature_n of_o blood_n water_n and_o the_o spirit_n for_o these_o indeed_o be_v not_o one_o as_o they_o use_v to_o
