and_o the_o discovery_n of_o transubstantiation_n one_o of_o the_o last_o heresy_n which_o babylon_n hatch_v now_o they_o which_o have_v be_v patron_n of_o it_o before_o shall_v do_v like_o the_o

of_o i_o 26_o for_o as_o often_o as_o you_o shall_v eat_v this_o bread_n and_o drink_v this_o cup_n you_o show_v the_o lord_n death_n till_o he_o come_v 27_o wherefore_o whosoever_o shall_v eat_v

so_o let_v he_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n and_o drink_v of_o this_o cup_n here_o i_o be_o to_o speak_v of_o the_o second_o service_n as_o it_o be_v at_o the_o lord_n table_n and_o of_o that_o

say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o blood_n 28_o in_o matthew_n &_o in_o mark_v it_o be_v say_v 24_o this_o cup_n be_v my_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n this_o be_v the_o first_o mention_n which_o christ_n make_v of_o a_o testament_n as_o though_o now_o his_o promise_n deserve_v the_o name_n of_o a_o testament_n because_o the_o seal_n be_v set_v unto_o they_o which_o before_o this_o sacrament_n be_v not_o seal_v but_o like_o a_o bare_a writing_n without_o a_o signet_n this_o word_n testament_n do_v imply_v a_o promise_n and_o therefore_o teach_v we_o that_o the_o sacrament_n do_v confirm_v and_o strengthen_v and_o nourish_v our_o faith_n because_o it_o seal_v the_o promise_n which_o we_o shall_v believe_v here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o christ_n do_v not_o only_o speak_v of_o a_o testament_n but_o he_o call_v it_o a_o new_a testament_n which_o word_n never_o meet_v together_o before_o as_o though_o the_o law_n be_v for_o the_o old_a man_n to_o mortify_v he_o and_o the_o gospel_n for_o the_o new_a man_n to_o comfort_v he_o again_o or_o as_o if_o the_o old_a testament_n have_v so_o wash_v her_o face_n and_o change_v her_o apparel_n at_o christ_n come_n that_o one_o will_v not_o think_v it_o the_o same_o but_o a_o new_a testament_n because_o even_o now_o she_o be_v shadow_v with_o a_o thousand_o ceremony_n and_o now_o they_o be_v go_v from_o she_o like_o a_o mist_n at_o the_o sun_n rise_v as_o christ_n call_v love_n 34._o a_o new_a commandment_n because_o he_o renew_v it_o like_o a_o law_n wear_v out_o of_o memory_n so_o he_o call_v the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n a_o new_a testament_n because_o as_o it_o be_v renew_v to_o sem_fw-mi and_o after_o renew_v to_o abraham_n and_o after_o renew_v to_o david_n so_o now_o he_o renew_v it_o again_o which_o shall_v be_v always_o new_a and_o fresh_a unto_o us._n every_o testament_n be_v confirm_v with_o blood_n the_o old_a testament_n be_v confirm_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o goat_n and_o bullock_n and_o ram_n 18._o but_o the_o new_a testament_n be_v confirm_v by_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n ●_o my_o blood_n say_v christ_n be_v the_o blood_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n nay_o this_o cup_n say_v christ_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n 20._o you_o may_v see_v then_o that_o they_o may_v gather_v as_o well_o out_o of_o christ_n word_n that_o the_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n as_o that_o the_o wine_n be_v his_o blood_n for_o christ_n say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n as_o well_o as_o he_o say_v this_o wine_n be_v my_o blood_n or_o this_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n beside_o when_o christ_n speak_v of_o a_o new_a testament_n he_o impli_v that_o the_o old_a testament_n be_v fulfil_v the_o sacrifice_n 13._o and_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n do_v signify_v christ_n before_o he_o come_v therefore_o they_o be_v fulfil_v in_o his_o come_n no_o more_o sacrifice_n no_o mo_z figure_n ceremony_n for_o the_o truth_n be_v come_v sacrifice_n and_o ceremony_n be_v honourable_o bury_v with_o the_o priesthood_n of_o aaron_n let_v they_o rest_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o violate_v the_o sepulchre_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o take_v their_o body_n out_o of_o the_o earth_n as_o the_o witch_n will_v raise_v samuel_n out_o of_o his_o grave_n 14_o therefore_o they_o which_o retain_v ceremony_n which_o shall_v be_v abrogate_a relic_n of_o judaisme_n or_o relic_n of_o papisme_n may_v be_v say_v to_o violate_v the_o sepulchre_n of_o the_o dead_a and_o disturb_v the_o deceased_a like_o the_o witch_n which_o presume_v to_o raise_v samuel_n out_o of_o his_o grave_n this_o testament_n be_v call_v a_o testament_n in_o blood_n because_o the_o testament_n and_o will_n of_o a_o man_n be_v confirm_v when_o the_o man_n be_v dead_a so_o christ_n confirm_v his_o testament_n by_o his_o death_n moses_n say_v 11._o that_o life_n be_v in_o the_o blood_n so_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o life_n of_o this_o testament_n if_o christ_n blood_n have_v not_o be_v shed_v this_o testament_n make_v unto_o we_o have_v be_v unprofitable_a as_o the_o testament_n of_o a_o father_n be_v unto_o his_o son_n if_o the_o father_n shall_v not_o die_v but_o live_v therefore_o the_o apostle_n say_v 22._o without_o shed_v of_o blood_n there_o be_v no_o remission_n of_o sin_n therefore_o the_o testament_n or_o covenaunt_n of_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n be_v call_v the_o testament_n in_o blood_n the_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o seal_n of_o the_o testament_n which_o we_o have_v to_o show_v unto_o god_n for_o the_o remission_n of_o our_o sin_n and_o the_o two_o sacrament_n be_v a_o seal_n of_o that_o blood_n to_o witness_v that_o it_o be_v shed_v again_o this_o be_v a_o matter_n regard_v in_o testament_n and_o will_n to_o the_o testament_n of_o he_o that_o be_v dead_a no_o man_n add_v or_o detract_v but_o as_o the_o testator_n make_v it_o so_o it_o stand_v without_o alteration_n so_o shall_v this_o testament_n of_o christ_n and_o this_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n no_o man_n shall_v alter_v it_o now_o he_o be_v dead_a for_o he_o which_o add_v or_o detract_v 2._o have_v a_o curse_n in_o god_n book_n 18._o therefore_o christ_n when_o he_o institute_v this_o sacrament_n command_v do_v this_o that_o be_v do_v as_o i_o do_v lest_o they_o shall_v swerve_v one_o whit_n from_o his_o own_o manner_n yet_o how_o many_o gaud_n have_v the_o papist_n add_v to_o it_o that_o he_o which_o have_v hear_v christ_n say_v do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o and_o shall_v see_v how_o they_o handle_v the_o matter_n in_o their_o mass_n confute_v can_v see_v nothing_o to_o remember_v christ_n by_o but_o a_o veil_n to_o hide_v christ_n from_o he_o therefore_o this_o commandment_n be_v repeat_v again_o when_o he_o give_v the_o wine_n do_v this_o etc._n etc._n as_o he_o command_v they_o to_o eat_v the_o bread_n in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o so_o he_o command_v they_o to_o drink_v the_o wine_n in_o remembrance_n of_o he_o nay_o he_o speak_v more_o precise_o of_o the_o wine_n then_o of_o the_o bread_n for_o he_o say_v of_o the_o wine_n 27_o drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o which_o he_o say_v not_o of_o the_o bread_n sure_o christ_n do_v foresee_v that_o some_o proud_a heretic_n will_v do_v otherwise_o after_o he_o even_o as_o it_o be_v come_v to_o pass_v for_o the_o papist_n do_v break_v this_o commandment_n of_o christ_n as_o flat_o as_o saul_n break_v the_o commandment_n of_o samuel_n samuel_n command_v he_o to_o kill_v the_o fat_a and_o the_o lean_a 9_o saul_n kill_v the_o lean_a but_o not_o the_o fat_a so_o christ_n command_v to_o receive_v bread_n and_o wine_n they_o teach_v to_o receive_v bread_n but_o not_o wine_n christ_n say_v drink_v you_o all_o of_o this_o they_o say_v drink_v not_o all_o of_o this_o christ_n give_v the_o bread_n and_o wine_n to_o all_o they_o give_v the_o bread_n to_o all_o and_o the_o wine_n to_o some_o their_o priest_n receive_v all_o but_o the_o people_n must_v content_v themselves_o with_o

which_o make_v we_o and_o our_o labour_n despise_v now_o what_o shall_v we_o answer_v to_o our_o despiser_n rejoice_v not_o against_o i_o o_o my_o enemy_n say_v the_o church_n for_o i_o shall_v be_v raise_v 7._o so_o despise_v not_o the_o prophet_n o_o you_o ismaelite_n for_o they_o shall_v be_v honour_v 3._o peter_n say_v to_o ananias_n and_o saphira_n you_o have_v not_o lie_v unto_o man_n but_o unto_o god_n so_o you_o have_v not_o despise_v man_n but_o god_n 16_o for_o christ_n say_v he_o which_o despise_v you_o despise_v i_o when_o satan_n slay_v job_n servant_n his_o malice_n be_v

why_o then_o if_o they_o despise_v christ_n christ_n will_v despise_v they_o for_o he_o tell_v saul_n that_o he_o spurn_v against_o the_o prick_n that_o be_v he_o spurn_v against_o that_o which_o will_v spurn_v against_o he_o therefore_o if_o you_o give_v unto_o christ_n when_o you_o give_v unto_o the_o poor_a and_o if_o you_o honour_v christ_n when_o you_o honour_v his_o prophet_n as_o you_o give_v unto_o the_o poor_a for_o christ_n sake_n so_o despise_v not_o the_o prophet_n for_o christ_n sake_n if_o for_o all_o this_o we_o must_v be_v despise_v still_o than_o this_o be_v our_o remedy_n paul_n say_v 15._o whatsoever_o we_o be_v to_o you_o yet_o we_o be_v a_o sweet_a savour_n to_o god_n both_o in_o they_o which_o be_v save_v and_o they_o which_o perish_v that_o be_v though_o we_o

all_o thing_n as_o if_o he_o shall_v say_v despise_v not_o prophesy_v but_o for_o all_o that_o try_v prophesy_v lest_o you_o believe_v error_n for_o truth_n for_o as_o among_o ruler_n there_o be_v bad_a ruler_n so_o among_o prophet_n therebe_n false_a prophet_n this_o make_v christ_n warn_v his_o disciple_n to_o beware_v of_o the_o leaven_n of_o the_o pharisy_n 25._o that_o be_v of_o their_o false_a doctrine_n this_o make_v john_n say_v try_v the_o spirit_n 1._o and_o therefore_o we_o read_v in_o the_o seaventeenth_o chapter_n of_o the_o act_n of_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o eleven_o verse_n how_o the_o man_n of_o beroea_n will_v not_o receive_v paul_n doctrine_n before_o they_o have_v try_v it_o and_o how_o do_v they_o try_v it_o it_o be_v say_v that_o they_o search_v the_o scripture_n this_o be_v the_o way_n which_o paul_n will_v teach_v you_o to_o try_v other_o whereby_o he_o be_v try_v himself_o whereby_o you_o may_v see_v that_o if_o you_o use_v to_o read_v the_o scripture_n you_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o try_v all_o doctrine_n for_o the_o word_n of_o god_n be_v the_o touchstone_n of_o every_o thing_n 2._o like_o the_o light_n which_o god_n make_v to_o behold_v all_o his_o creature_n so_o be_v the_o scripture_n to_o decide_v all_o question_n every_o doubt_n must_v come_v to_o the_o word_n and_o all_o controversy_n must_v be_v end_v at_o this_o tribunal_n the_o scripture_n must_v speak_v which_o be_v right_a and_o which_o be_v wrong_a which_o be_v truth_n and_o which_o be_v error_n and_o all_o tongue_n must_v keep_v silence_n to_o hear_v it_o so_o god_n have_v appoint_v that_o the_o judge_n of_o our_o controversy_n which_o he_o say_v in_o the_o twelve_o chapter_n of_o john_n and_o the_o eight_o and_o forty_o verse_n shall_v judge_v we_o in_o the_o last_o day_n here_o a_o man_n may_v ask_v if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o god_n will_v have_v we_o to_o try_v all_o our_o religion_n by_o the_o scripture_n and_o not_o by_o father_n nor_o by_o doctor_n nor_o by_o counsel_n nor_o by_o angel_n nor_o by_o pope_n how_o then_o do_v the_o papist_n say_v we_o must_v believe_v as_o the_o church_n believe_v and_o never_o look_v into_o the_o scripture_n whether_o our_o teacher_n say_v as_o god_n say_v but_o take_v it_o upon_o their_o credit_n as_o a_o blind_a man_n eat_v his_o meat_n a_o man_n tri_v his_o horse_n which_o must_v bear_v he_o and_o shall_v he_o not_o try_v his_o faith_n which_o must_v save_v he_o paul_n say_v let_v every_o one_o be_v able_a to_o give_v a_o reason_n of_o his_o faith_n be_v this_o a_o reason_n of_o our_o faith_n to_o say_v i_o believe_v so_o because_o rome_n believe_v so_o or_o rather_o because_o that_o the_o word_n do_v teach_v i_o so_o it_o will_v not_o answer_v for_o they_o which_o die_v in_o heresy_n to_o say_v the_o priest_n teach_v we_o so_o no_o more_o than_o it_o will_v excuse_v eve_n to_o say_v 13._o the_o serpent_n teach_v she_o so_o for_o god_n say_v be_v not_o deceive_v neither_o by_o serpent_n nor_o by_o prophet_n nor_o by_o angel_n therefore_o i_o conclude_v with_o paul_n despise_v not_o prophesy_v lest_o the_o gospel_n be_v take_v from_o you_o and_o yet_o try_v prophesy_v lest_o you_o receive_v error_n for_o truth_n as_o we_o be_v to_o try_v doctrine_n so_o paul_n will_v have_v we_o to_o try_v our_o thought_n and_o our_o speech_n and_o our_o action_n therefore_o he_o say_v try_v all_o thing_n he_o do_v not_o bid_v we_o take_v a_o taste_n of_o all_o sin_n and_o vanity_n as_o solomon_n do_v to_o try_v they_o for_o they_o be_v try_v already_o but_o that_o we_o shall_v set_v the_o word_n of_o god_n always_o before_o we_o like_o a_o rule_n &_o believe_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o it_o teach_v love_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o it_o prescribe_v hate_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o it_o forbid_v do_v nothing_o but_o that_o which_o it_o command_v and_o then_o we_o try_v all_o thing_n by_o the_o word_n as_o the_o eunuch_n say_v how_o shall_v i_o understand_v without_o a_o interpreter_n 31._o so_o thou_o may_v say_v how_o shall_v i_o try_v without_o the_o word_n which_o be_v the_o touchstone_n of_o good_a and_o evil_a now_o when_o we_o have_v

priest_n because_o the_o people_n shall_v take_v superstition_n before_o religion_n will_v never_o let_v they_o have_v the_o touchstone_n but_o keep_v they_o from_o the_o scripture_n and_o lock_v it_o
