where_o of_o the_o scripture_n speak_v say_v a_o sacrifice_n to_o god_n be_v a_o afflict_a spirit_n psal_n 50._o 19_o and_o of_o this_o sort_n be_v all_o those_o inward_a and_o invisible_a operation_n of_o our_o heart_n who_o tend_v to_o the_o honour_n and_o love_n of_o god_n as_o for_o example_n the_o inward_a mortification_n of_o our_o inordinate_a appetyte_n and_o desire_n according_a to_o the_o

invisible_o mortify_v and_o kill_v the_o inordinate_a desire_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o flesh_n where_o of_o s._n paul_n further_o speak_v say_v if_o by_o the_o spirit_n you_o mortify_v the_o deed_n

chapter_n of_o his_o 10._o book_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n affirm_v the_o work_n of_o mercy_n if_o they_o be_v not_o do_v for_o the_o love_n of_o god_n be_v not_o a_o sacrifice_n because_o they_o want_v the_o end_n unto_o which_o all_o sacrifice_n be_v ordain_v which_o be_v that_o we_o may_v adhere_v and_o cleave_v unto_o god_n by_o holy_a society_n these_o two_o kynde_n of_o sacrifice_n be_v call_v general_a because_o they_o may_v and_o aught_o to_o be_v donn_v or_o perform_v by_o all_o man_n general_o who_o be_v come_v to_o the_o year_n of_o discretion_n and_o have_v ability_n without_o any_o particular_a vocation_n or_o election_n more_o than_o the_o obligation_n of_o all_o mankind_n 3._o the_o three_o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n be_v the_o death_n sacrifice_n the_o 3._o kind_n of_o sacrifice_n and_o passion_n of_o our_o saviour_n upon_o the_o cross_n which_o be_v general_o call_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o redemption_n for_o by_o it_o we_o be_v redeem_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v call_v above_o all_o other_o chief_o and_o principal_o a_o sacrifice_n as_o upon_o which_o all_o other_o sacrifice_n do_v or_o aught_o to_o depend_v as_o commemoration_n or_o application_n of_o it_o unto_o ourselves_o for_o though_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n by_o his_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n redeem_v all_o mankind_n from_o everlasting_a pain_n yet_o he_o do_v not_o so_o redeem_v man_n as_o that_o he_o shall_v have_v nothing_o to_o do_v or_o perform_v on_o his_o part_n for_o the_o obtain_v of_o his_o salvation_n but_o only_o to_o live_v idle_o for_o so_o the_o sacred_a passion_n of_o our_o lord_n shall_v be_v a_o cloak_n for_o idleness_n and_o sin_n but_o he_o redeem_v mankind_n conditional_o that_o man_n shall_v do_v these_o and_o these_o thing_n thereby_o to_o apply_v the_o merit_n of_o the_o sacrifice_n upon_o the_o cross_n unto_o himself_o and_o so_o be_v save_v as_o witness_v our_o saviour_n say_v not_o every_o one_o that_o say_v lord_n lord_n shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n but_o he_o that_o do_v the_o will_n of_o my_o father_n which_o be_v in_o heaven_n he_o shall_v enter_v into_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n matth._n 7._o 21._o 4._o the_o fowth_n kind_n proper_a to_o the_o faithful_a sacrifice_n the_o fowrth_a kind_n of_o sacrifice_n whereof_o we_o be_v to_o treat_v be_v a_o oblation_n or_o gift_n give_v or_o offer_v to_o god_n upon_o a_o altar_n by_o a_o priest_n the_o only_a lawful_a minister_n of_o a_o particular_a visible_a thing_n wherein_o there_o be_v make_v some_o alteration_n or_o change_v to_o express_v the_o death_n of_o our_o lord_n in_o sacrifice_n and_o also_o to_o signify_v the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n to_o god_n his_o dominion_n over_o we_o and_o our_o subjection_n unto_o he_o and_o our_o unity_n in_o religion_n among_o ourselves_o under_o one_o god_n as_o witness_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o no_n gen._n 8._o 26._o of_o abraham_n gen._n 15._o 9_o of_o

israel_n in_o the_o write_a law_n which_o sacrifice_n be_v offer_v to_o god_n by_o the_o ancient_a father_n of_o the_o old_a law_n as_o s._n augustine_n in_o the_o 5._o chapter_n of_o his_o 10._o book_n of_o the_o city_n of_o god_n affirm_v to_o express_v or_o signify_v by_o they_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v donn_v in_o we_o to_o this_o end_n only_o that_o we_o may_v stick_v or_o cleave_v unto_o god_n and_o give_v council_n unto_o our_o neighbour_n that_o he_o may_v tend_v unto_o the_o same_o end_n and_o then_o discrybe_a what_o such_o a_o visible_a sacrifice_n be_v immediate_o add_v say_v therefore_o a_o visible_a sacrifice_n be_v a_o sacred_a sign_n of_o the_o invisible_a sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n so_o that_o a_o perfect_a visible_a sacrifice_n consist_v in_o itself_o of_o three_o part_n the_o exterior_a visible_a oblation_n and_o action_n which_o be_v call_v as_o s._n augustine_n say_v in_o the_o same_o chapter_n the_o sign_n of_o the_o true_a sacrifice_n the_o invisible_a operation_n which_o be_v the_o sacrifice_n of_o our_o heart_n the_o memory_n of_o the_o passion_n of_o our_o lord_n the_o acknowledge_v of_o god_n for_o our_o god_n &c_n &c_n and_o the_o good_a work_n whereby_o god_n be_v honour_v with_o the_o worship_n of_o latria_n and_o peace_n and_o unity_n in_o religion_n practice_n among_o ourselves_o wherefore_o this_o fowrth_a kind_n of_o sacrifice_n whereof_o of_o i_o intend_v chief_o to_o treat_v include_v the_o first_o and_o second_o kind_n as_o the_o whole_a do_v the_o part_n a_o have_v relation_n unto_o the_o three_o as_o a_o commemoration_n or_o application_n of_o the_o virtue_n of_o it_o unto_o ourselves_o 5._o whereas_o i_o say_v that_o a_o exterior_a visible_a sacrifice_n be_v a_o oblation_n or_o gift_n give_v or_o
