in_o those_o two_o thing_n do_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n consist_v it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o the_o privilege_n we_o have_v we_o have_v they_o therefore_o because_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n it_o be_v the_o ground_n of_o all_o the_o grace_n we_o have_v because_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n therefore_o we_o be_v new_a creature_n therefore_o we_o have_v the_o image_n of_o god_n repair_v in_o we_o which_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o bundle_n of_o all_o grace_n as_o the_o old_a man_n be_v the_o bundle_n and_o heap_n of_o all_o corruption_n and_o sin_n now_o we_o will_v show_v what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o christ_n christ._n and_o of_o what_o moment_n it_o be_v then_o we_o will_v make_v use_n of_o it_o the_o two_o first_o be_v so_o near_o conjoin_v that_o we_o will_v handle_v they_o together_o what_o it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o of_o what_o moment_n it_o be_v to_o be_v in_o christ_n that_o be_v to_o be_v unite_v to_o christ._n a_o man_n than_o be_v say_v to_o be_v

christ_n than_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n for_o than_o we_o be_v he_o now_o that_o this_o may_v be_v do_v there_o must_v be_v a_o mutual_a act_n of_o give_v and_o receive_v that_o be_v it_o be_v god_n that_o give_v his_o son_n and_o christ_n that_o give_v himself_o as_o the_o apostle_n speak_v he_o love_v i_o and_o give_v himself_o for_o i_o when_o this_o be_v do_v on_o god_n part_n and_o we_o have_v take_v he_o that_o make_v christ_n we_o so_o there_o must_v be_v a_o give_v and_o take_v to_o unite_v we_o unto_o christ_n there_o must_v be_v a_o give_v that_o be_v the_o father_n must_v give_v christ_n be_v now_o give_v be_v nothing_o else_o but_o quod_fw-la meum_fw-la est_fw-la efficere_fw-la tuum_fw-la nullo_n jure_fw-la cogente_fw-la this_o definition_n the_o civil_a lawyer_n give_v of_o it_o and_o it_o be_v a_o true_a one_o so_o the_o lord_n give_v christ_n to_o we_o he_o make_v he_o we_o nothing_o compel_v he_o to_o it_o for_o if_o it_o be_v by_o law_n it_o be_v not_o by_o gift_n but_o by_o debt_n i_o say_v he_o give_v christ_n and_o free_o and_o to_o give_v he_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o make_v he_o we_o but_o to_o give_v he_o be_v nothing_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o except_o we_o take_v he_o likewise_o for_o give_v and_o take_v be_v relative_n remove_v one_o and_o the_o other_o be_v take_v away_o though_o god_n give_v his_o son_n free_o yet_o except_o we_o take_v he_o that_o gift_n be_v no_o gift_n therefore_o there_o must_v be_v a_o take_n on_o our_o part_n and_o when_o these_o two_o be_v do_v when_o god_n have_v give_v christ_n and_o we_o have_v take_v he_o than_o we_o be_v unite_v to_o christ_n and_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o he_o in_o we_o as_o in_o marriage_n the_o husband_n give_v himself_o to_o the_o wife_n and_o she_o take_v he_o again_o the_o wife_n give_v herself_o to_o the_o husband_n and_o he_o take_v she_o and_o when_o this_o be_v once_o do_v and_o do_v real_o they_o be_v unite_v together_o and_o such_o a_o match_n be_v

we_o in_o he_o yea_o to_o go_v a_o little_a further_o marriage_n be_v a_o near_a union_n yet_o but_o a_o relative_n union_n but_o there_o be_v something_o more_o in_o this_o christ_n have_v take_v our_o nature_n he_o be_v bone_n of_o our_o bone_n and_o flesh_n of_o our_o f●esh_n and_o again_o he_o have_v give_v we_o his_o spirit_n that_o the_o very_a same_o spirit_n dwell_v in_o we_o as_o do_v in_o he_o that_o we_o may_v be_v say_v to_o be_v spirit_n of_o his_o spirit_n this_o be_v more_o than_o be_v in_o marriage_n this_o be_v a_o near_a union_n therefore_o the_o scripture_n use_v a_o near_a expression_n we_o be_v as_o member_n of_o the_o same_o body_n he_o the_o head_n we_o the_o member_n we_o have_v the_o same_o spirit_n that_o he_o have_v we_o be_v flesh_n of_o the_o same_o flesh_n and_o bone_n of_o the_o same_o bone_n so_o near_o a_o union_n there_o be_v between_o we_o so_o then_o there_o be_v more_o than_o a_o relation_n in_o our_o be_v in_o christ_n he_o indeed_o come_v in_o to_o we_o as_o the_o sun_n be_v say_v to_o come_v into_o the_o house_n you_o know_v the_o sun_n be_v in_o the_o heaven_n but_o when_o the_o light_n come_v in_o we_o say_v the_o sun_n come_v into_o the_o house_n for_o there_o come_v a_o real_a light_n which_o be_v a_o effect_n of_o the_o sun_n so_o the_o son_n of_o god_n jesus_n christ_n though_o he_o be_v in_o heaven_n yet_o he_o come_v into_o the_o heart_n by_o his_o spirit_n as_o the_o sun_n do_v by_o the_o light_n which_o revive_v we_o and_o quicken_v we_o and_o work_v a_o change_n in_o we_o again_o we_o grow_v into_o christ_n as_o the_o branch_n grow_v into_o the_o vine_n into_o the_o root_n into_o the_o stock_n so_o that_o we_o be_v one_o in_o another_o and_o we_o grow_v one_o in_o another_o as_o the_o branch_n grow_v in_o the_o vine_n and_o the_o vine_n grow_v in_o the_o branch_n such_o a_o mutual_a union_n there_o be_v between_o we_o and_o thence_o come_v all_o the_o benefit_n be_v which_o be_v the_o second_o thing_n i_o will_v show_v you_o that_o be_v of_o what_o moment_n it_o be_v i_o say_v hence_o come_v all_o the_o benefit_n we_o have_v by_o he_o in_o that_o we_o be_v unite_v to_o he_o after_o this_o manner_n that_o we_o be_v in_o he_o as_o the_o branch_n in_o the_o vine_n thence_o it_o be_v that_o we_o be_v make_v new_a creature_n that_o be_v there_o be_v a_o new_a sap_n shed_v into_o the_o branch_n which_o wear_v out_o the_o old_a sap_n the_o old_a man_n original_a sin_n which_o be_v there_o before_o and_o change_v it_o by_o the_o ingredience_n of_o the_o new_a sap._n so_o do_v christ_n therefore_o we_o be_v say_v to_o be_v ingraft_v into_o the_o similitude_n of_o his_o death_n and_o resurrection_n that_o be_v the_o old_a nature_n in_o we_o be_v wear_v out_o by_o the_o come_n in_o of_o the_o new_a now_o as_o christ_n do_v die_v but_o revive_v again_o so_o we_o put_v on_o another_o nature_n so_o we_o have_v this_o benefit_n by_o this_o union_n we_o be_v make_v new_a creature_n beside_o this_o we_o have_v a_o hundred_o other_o when_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n we_o be_v under_o covert_n he_o have_v interest_n in_o all_o our_o debt_n and_o we_o have_v interest_n in_o

have_v interest_n in_o all_o his_o wealth_n look_v how_o far_o he_o can_v go_v beyond_o a_o man_n so_o far_o be_v you_o advantage_v by_o he_o and_o have_v interest_n in_o all_o his_o riches_n he_o

for_o his_o glory_n and_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o his_o glory_n then_o certain_o the_o power_n of_o god_n must_v not_o be_v bring_v down_o for_o the_o work_n of_o it_o and_o as_o it_o be_v against_o his_o glory_n so_o it_o be_v against_o his_o wisdom_n for_o the_o lord_n do_v nothing_o to_o no_o purpose_n he_o do_v nothing_o in_o vain_a he_o never_o wrought_v miracle_n when_o they_o may_v be_v spare_v where_o the_o thing_n may_v be_v do_v without_o a_o miracle_n since_o this_o may_v be_v do_v without_o a_o miracle_n all_o that_o we_o have_v by_o christ_n all_o that_o be_v represent_v in_o the_o sacrament_n what_o necessity_n be_v there_o and_o if_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n it_o beseem_v not_o the_o wisdom_n of_o god_n to_o do_v it_o again_o will_v not_o the_o small_a miracle_n real_o and_o visible_o expose_v to_o sense_n help_v more_o than_o such_o a_o miracle_n as_o this_o beside_o all_o this_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o possible_a make_v your_o own_o sense_n judge_n you_o see_v nothing_o but_o bread_n now_o this_o be_v a_o sure_a rule_n that_o of_o all_o demonstration_n of_o reason_n that_o we_o have_v to_o prove_v thing_n nothing_o be_v so_o firm_a as_o that_o which_o be_v take_v from_o sense_n to_o prove_v the_o fire_n be_v hot_a we_o feel_v it_o hot_a or_o honey_n to_o be_v sweet_a when_o we_o taste_v it_o to_o be_v sweet_a there_o be_v no_o reason_n in_o the_o world_n make_v it_o so_o firm_a as_o sense_n as_o it_o be_v true_a in_o these_o case_n so_o it_o be_v a_o undoubted_a truth_n in_o divinity_n that_o in_o all_o matter_n of_o sense_n sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n indeed_o if_o it_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o reason_n there_o sense_n be_v not_o able_a to_o judge_v the_o eye_n be_v able_a to_o judge_v of_o his_o own_o sense_n of_o sound_n it_o can_v judge_v but_o i_o say_v object_n proper_a to_o sense_n peculiar_a to_o sense_n in_o these_o sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n and_o therefore_o christ_n himself_o in_o this_o very_a business_n when_o he_o will_v prove_v that_o he_o have_v a_o true_a body_n he_o send_v they_o to_o their_o sense_n a_o spirit_n have_v not_o flesh_n and_o blood_n as_o you_o see_v i_o have_v and_o thomas_n he_o bid_v put_v thy_o hand_n into_o my_o side_n and_o feel_v etc._n etc._n he_o send_v they_o to_o their_o sense_n look_v through_o the_o scripture_n and_o see_v if_o there_o be_v one_o miracle_n there_o if_o sense_n be_v not_o a_o competent_a judge_n according_a to_o that_o part_n of_o the_o miracle_n that_o concern_v the_o sense_n will_v you_o not_o think_v it_o strange_a if_o christ_n shall_v have_v come_v to_o the_o master_n of_o the_o feast_n when_o he_o wrought_v the_o miracle_n and_o have_v say_v sir_n you_o must_v believe_v that_o this_o be_v wine_n though_o you_o see_v nothing_o though_o you_o taste_v nothing_o but_o water_n yet_o you_o must_v believe_v that_o it_o be_v turn_v into_o wine_n and_o if_o god_n shall_v have_v say_v unto_o moses_n though_o you_o see_v nothing_o but_o a_o rod_n thou_o must_v believe_v it_o be_v turn_v into_o a_o serpent_n if_o there_o have_v be_v no_o change_n indeed_o and_o such_o as_o sense_n may_v see_v we_o will_v think_v it_o a_o ridiculous_a thing_n and_o next_o door_n to_o a_o imposture_n and_o therefore_o certain_o in_o matter_n of_o sense_n sense_n be_v a_o competent_a judge_n and_o therefore_o when_o all_o the_o sense_n tell_v we_o that_o it_o be_v bread_n when_o we_o taste_v when_o the_o eye_n and_o the_o touch_n when_o every_o thing_n make_v it_o evident_a that_o it_o be_v bread_n why_o shall_v we_o say_v there_o be_v any_o thing_n else_o but_o bread_n beside_o if_o we_o will_v add_v to_o sense_n reason_n it_o be_v against_o reason_n as_o well_o as_o against_o sense_n it_o be_v against_o reason_n that_o christ_n shall_v be_v in_o heaven_n and_o yet_o have_v ten_o thousand_o body_n on_o earth_n and_o yet_o christ_n have_v but_o one_o body_n and_o a_o body_n can_v be_v but_o in_o one_o place_n and_o again_o this_o body_n must_v be_v without_o all_o circumscription_n and_o quality_n and_o property_n of_o a_o body_n and_o again_o that_o the_o bread_n that_o we_o see_v shall_v be_v no_o bread_n say_v they_o there_o be_v the_o whiteness_n of_o bread_n there_o be_v the_o taste_n of_o bread_n there_o be_v the_o quantity_n of_o bread_n and_o that_o be_v all_o i_o will_v but_o ask_v they_o one_o thing_n when_o this_o bread_n be_v eat_v since_o there_o be_v nothing_o there_o but_o these_o accident_n there_o be_v nothing_o but_o the_o mere_a quantity_n and_o the_o like_a i_o will_v ask_v whether_o it_o nourish_v the_o body_n or_o no_o they_o must_v needs_o answer_v no_o if_o they_o follow_v their_o principle_n because_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v not_o there_o they_o say_v it_o be_v remove_v as_o soon_o as_o the_o bread_n be_v destroy_v when_o it_o begin_v to_o turn_v into_o flesh_n it_o lose_v these_o accident_n well_o the_o bread_n return_v not_o again_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o accident_n of_o the_o bread_n and_o yet_o certain_o it_o do_v nourish_v for_o it_o be_v report_v by_o credible_a author_n that_o some_o have_v be_v so_o holy_a that_o they_o will_v feed_v upon_o nothing_o else_o but_o the_o eucharist_n for_o a_o priest_n may_v consecrate_v a_o cellar_n of_o wine_n and_o as_o much_o bread_n as_o he_o will_v and_o may_v feed_v upon_o this_o and_o with_o these_o he_o may_v be_v nourish_v and_o yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o but_o accident_n of_o bread_n in_o a_o word_n the_o school_n that_o traverse_v this_o so_o accute_o be_v not_o satisfy_v at_o all_o in_o this_o but_o they_o leave_v it_o as_o a_o wonder_n as_o a_o thing_n that_o can_v be_v explain_v so_o it_o be_v against_o reason_n as_o it_o be_v against_o sense_n but_o you_o will_v say_v faith_n be_v beyond_o sense_n and_o reason_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v beyond_o both_o but_o it_o be_v not_o contrary_a to_o both_o faith_n teach_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o reason_n for_o sense_n and_o reason_n be_v god_n work_n as_o well_o as_o grace_v now_o one_o work_n of_o god_n do_v not_o destroy_v another_o if_o they_o shall_v there_o must_v be_v a_o imperfection_n in_o the_o workman_n and_o therefore_o grace_n and_o faith_n contrary_v not_o sense_n and_o reason_n indeed_o it_o elevate_v reason_n and_o make_v it_o high_o it_o make_v it_o see_v further_o than_o reason_n can_v it_o be_v contrary_a indeed_o to_o corrupt_v reason_n but_o to_o reason_n that_o be_v right_a reason_n it_o be_v not_o contrary_a only_o it_o raise_v it_o high_o and_o therefore_o faith_n teach_v nothing_o contrary_a to_o sense_n and_o reason_n but_o beside_o these_o if_o we_o show_v they_o scripture_n too_o what_o will_v they_o have_v then_o to_o say_v when_o we_o say_v it_o be_v against_o sense_n and_o reason_n say_v they_o the_o scripture_n affirm_v it_o if_o it_o do_v we_o will_v yield_v let_v we_o examine_v the_o word_n if_o the_o scripture_n affirm_v it_o yes_o say_v they_o the_o scripture_n say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n they_o be_v christ_n word_n but_o if_o the_o scripture_n say_v so_o yet_o the_o scripture_n say_v no_o where_o that_o that_o bread_n be_v turn_v

good_a spy_n that_o look_v on_o thing_n with_o another_o eye_n bring_v another_o kind_n of_o message_n just_o thus_o it_o be_v with_o we_o in_o send_v out_o our_o spy_n to_o look_v upon_o the_o

their_o force_n so_o strong_a that_o there_o be_v no_o meddle_v with_o they_o but_o send_v faith_n and_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o will_n like_o good_a spy_n look_v on_o thing_n with_o a_o right_a

the_o excellency_n of_o man_n be_v to_o be_v make_v according_a to_o the_o first_o rule_n to_o be_v square_v according_a to_o the_o image_n of_o god_n after_o which_o he_o be_v first_o create_v and_o

beseech_v you_o consider_v seriosu_o reckon_v nothing_o so_o sweet_a if_o this_o life_n be_v sweet_a that_o be_v but_o a_o span_n long_o be_v not_o abundance_n of_o life_n much_o sweet_a it_o be_v natural_a to_o every_o man_n to_o desire_v immortility_n if_o you_o can_v but_o have_v this_o life_n continue_v let_v every_o man_n ask_v his_o own_o breast_n what_o he_o will_v give_v that_o his_o life_n may_v be_v continue_v that_o he_o may_v be_v immortal_a if_o there_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o alchemist_n speak_v of_o i_o can_v draw_v out_o the_o thread_n of_o this_o life_n to_o

christ_n which_o be_v life_n indeed_o which_o will_v give_v you_o another_o life_n of_o immortality_n for_o you_o must_v know_v that_o it_o be_v not_o immortality_n simple_o that_o man_n desire_v the_o naturalist_n be_v deceive_v in_o that_o for_o a_o man_n have_v rather_o not_o to_o be_v than_o to_o be_v in_o misery_n and_o the_o soul_n in_o hell_n be_v immortal_a and_o therefore_o it_o be_v not_o immortality_n that_o we_o desire_v simple_o for_o death_n be_v not_o the_o extinguish_n of_o life_n but_o the_o misery_n of_o life_n and_o therefore_o where_o the_o scripture_n speak_v of_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o soul_n it_o be_v to_o be_v mean_v thus_o a_o man_n finger_n or_o his_o joint_n be_v lose_v when_o it_o be_v seize_v on_o by_o any_o incurable_a sore_n so_o when_o eternal_a

not_o immortality_n simple_o that_o we_o desire_v if_o we_o consider_v what_o it_o be_v but_o it_o be_v happiness_n it_o be_v such_o a_o life_n as_o be_v not_o only_o immortal_a but_o happy_a withal_o this_o life_n christ_n have_v promise_v we_o shall_v live_v and_o a_o happy_a life_n such_o as_o s._n paul_n express_v 2_o cor._n 5._o say_v he_o we_o desire_v not_o to_o be_v unclothe_v but_o to_o
