and_o say_v depart_v in_o peace_n thy_o faith_n have_v save_v thou_o thy_o faith_n have_v draw_v out_o a_o virtue_n &_o power_n from_o i_o that_o have_v make_v both_o thy_o soul_n &_o body_n whole_a

the_o office_n of_o a_o carnal_a head_n thereunto_o to_o furnish_v natural_a motion_n &_o sense_n to_o our_o body_n no_o the_o scripture_n call_v not_o christ_n a_o natural_a head_n but_o the_o

to_o the_o body_n for_o our_o temporal_a nourishment_n now_o let_v we_o examine_v the_o word_n &_o part_n of_o this_o definition_n seal_n why_o this_o sacrament_n be_v call_v a_o seal_n first_o of_o all_o i_o call_v this_o sacrament_n a_o seal_n because_o this_o sacrament_n serve_v to_o the_o same_o use_n to_o our_o soul_n that_o a_o common_a seal_n do_v to_o a_o common_a evidence_n as_o the_o seal_n which_o be_v annex_v to_o the_o evidence_n confirm_v and_o seal_v up_o the_o truth_n contain_v in_o the_o evidence_n so_o this_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n confirm_v and_o seal_v up_o the_o truth_n of_o mercy_n and_o grace_n contain_v in_o the_o covenant_n of_o mercy_n and_o grace_n for_o this_o respect_n it_o be_v call_v a_o seal_n it_o be_v call_v a_o holy_a seal_n why_o seal_n why_o it_o be_v call_v a_o holy_a seal_n because_o it_o be_v take_v from_o the_o profane_a use_n whereunto_o that_o bread_n serve_v before_o and_o that_o bread_n be_v apply_v to_o a_o holy_a use_n there_o be_v a_o power_n give_v to_o that_o bread_n to_o signify_v the_o precious_a body_n of_o christ_n jesus_n to_o represent_v the_o nourish_a and_o feed_v of_o our_o soul_n and_o in_o respect_n it_o serve_v now_o in_o the_o sacrament_n to_o so_o holy_a a_o use_n therefore_o i_o call_v it_o a_o holy_a seal_n this_o be_v not_o my_o word_n it_o be_v the_o apostle_n rom._n 4.11_o where_o he_o give_v the_o sacrament_n the_o same_o name_n and_o call_v it_o a_o seal_n and_o further_o if_o the_o wisdom_n of_o christ_n in_o his_o apostle_n have_v be_v follow_v and_o if_o man_n have_v not_o invent_v new_a name_n of_o their_o own_o for_o this_o sacrament_n but_o content_v &_o satisfy_v themselves_o with_o the_o name_n which_o god_n have_v give_v by_o his_o

where_o man_n will_v go_v about_o to_o be_v wise_a them_z god_n &_o go_v beyond_o god_n in_o devise_v name_n which_o he_o never_o give_v upon_o man_n own_o invention_n such_o debate_n have_v fall_v out_o a_o lesson_n by_o the_o way_n that_o no_o flesh_n presume_v to_o be_v wise_a than_o god_n but_o let_v they_o stoop_v and_o keep_v the_o name_n which_o god_n have_v give_v to_o this_o sacrament_n three_o covenant_n why_o the_o seal_n be_v say_v to_o be_v annex_v to_o the_o covenant_n i_o say_v annex_v to_o the_o covenant_n annex_v and_o hang_v to_o the_o charter_n because_o it_o can_v be_v call_v a_o seal_n proper_o except_o it_o be_v hang_v to_o a_o evidence_n what_o it_o be_v by_o nature_n the_o same_o it_o remain_v and_o no_o more_o if_o it_o be_v not_o annex_v to_o some_o evidence_n it_o be_v only_o the_o hang_n of_o it_o to_o the_o evidence_n that_o make_v man_n account_v it_o a_o seal_n not_o be_v esteem_v except_o it_o be_v hang_v to_o the_o evidence_n even_o so_o it_o be_v here_o if_o this_o sacrament_n be_v not_o minister_v and_o join_v to_o the_o preach_v word_n to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o covenant_n of_o mercy_n and_o grace_n it_o can_v be_v a_o seal_n but_o what_o it_o be_v by_o nature_n it_o be_v no_o more_o as_o by_o nature_n it_o be_v but_o a_o common_a piece_n of_o bread_n so_o it_o be_v no_o more_o if_o it_o be_v not_o annex_v to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o word_n and_o minister_v therewith_o as_o christ_n have_v command_v therefore_o i_o say_v the_o seal_n must_v be_v annex_v and_o hang_v to_o the_o evidence_n to_o the_o preach_n of_o the_o

christ_n which_o be_v local_o present_a with_o the_o rest_n of_o his_o disciple_n be_v not_o glorify_v yet_o the_o body_n which_o he_o exhibit_v in_o the_o bread_n be_v glorify_v they_o may_v as_o

according_a to_o their_o own_o confession_n those_o word_n be_v pronounce_v upon_o the_o bread_n &_o direct_v unto_o it_o but_o that_o same_o body_n be_v give_v and_o break_v for_o we_o that_o be_v to_o say_v crucify_a and_o break_v with_o anguish_n and_o dolour_n then_o i_o reason_n after_o this_o sort_n to_o be_v crucify_v and_o break_v with_o anguish_n and_o dolour_n can_v no_o way_n agree_v and_o convene_n with_o a_o glorify_a body_n but_o the_o body_n that_o christ_n exhibit_v in_o the_o bread_n be_v say_v of_o the_o evangelist_n to_o be_v crucify_v and_o break_v for_o we_o ergo_fw-la that_o body_n be_v not_o glorify_v now_o last_o of_o all_o they_o be_v not_o yet_o content_a but_o say_v christ_n can_v make_v the_o bread_n his_o body_n and_o therefore_o his_o body_n be_v real_o present_a that_o christ_n can_v make_v the_o bread_n his_o body_n we_o grant_v for_o christ_n be_v god_n can_v do_v whatsoever_o he_o will_v only_o let_v they_o show_v that_o christ_n will_v make_v of_o real_a bread_n his_o real_a flesh_n and_o then_o this_o controversy_n will_v end_v christ_n indeed_o make_v the_o bread_n his_o body_n not_o real_o but_o sacramental_o for_o christ_n have_v not_o a_o body_n make_v of_o bread_n his_o body_n be_v make_v once_o of_o the_o pure_a substance_n of_o his_o bless_a mother_n another_o body_n than_o this_o or_o often_o make_v then_o once_o have_v he_o none_o wherefore_o all_o doctrine_n that_o teach_v christ_n body_n to_o be_v make_v of_o bread_n be_v impious_a &_o heretical_a the_o papist_n doctrine_n of_o real_a presence_n teach_v that_o christ_n body_n in_o the_o sacrament_n be_v make_v of_o bread_n by_o change_v the_o bread_n into_o his_o body_n through_o consecration_n wherefore_o we_o may_v bold_o and_o and_o true_o conclude_v that_o their_o doctrine_n of_o real_a presence_n be_v both_o wicked_a &_o heretical_a now_o to_o conclude_v this_o head_n i_o beseech_v they_o see_v that_o reason_n fail_v they_o that_o they_o fight_v not_o against_o god_n for_o maintenance_n of_o a_o lie_n how_o old_a soever_o it_o be_v for_o the_o devil_n be_v old_a enough_o &_o yet_o he_o can_v never_o change_v his_o nature_n but_o let_v they_o rather_o glorify_v god_n in_o confess_v these_o speech_n to_o be_v sacramenetal_n then_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n &_o ground_n wherefore_o the_o papist_n pull_v down_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o make_v the_o very_a substance_n to_o be_v corporal_o present_a the_o reason_n that_o move_v the_o papist_n to_o think_v that_o chr._n body_n can_v be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n except_o it_o be_v real_o carnal_o and_o substantial_o present_a real_o and_o substantial_o in_o the_o sacrament_n the_o reason_n be_v this_o because_o they_o can_v see_v by_o their_o natural_a judgement_n nor_o can_v understand_v by_o their_o natural_a wit_n the_o truth_n of_o this_o to_o wit_n how_o christ_n flesh_n and_o blood_n can_v be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n except_o he_o be_v present_a to_o their_o corporal_a hand_n to_o their_o corporal_a mouth_n and_o stomach_n if_o they_o have_v the_o light_n to_o inform_v they_o that_o christ_n may_v be_v present_a in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o not_o to_o the_o hand_n to_o the_o mouth_n or_o stomach_n they_o will_v never_o think_v of_o such_o a_o monstrous_a presence_n as_o they_o imagine_v to_o be_v there_o but_o be_v destitute_a of_o the_o spiritual_a light_n they_o follow_v their_o natural_a reason_n &_o make_v a_o natural_a observation_n observation_n &_o carnal_a presence_n so_o that_o you_o have_v this_o lesson_n to_o note_v from_o hence_o there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o have_v not_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n to_o understand_v this_o word_n this_o be_v my_o body_n but_o out_o of_o question_n he_o will_v do_v as_o the_o papist_n do_v that_o be_v he_o will_v understand_v it_o carnal_o and_o so_o they_o mis-knowing_a the_o right_a meaning_n of_o it_o it_o be_v no_o marvel_n though_o they_o and_o we_o differ_v in_o this_o matter_n for_o will_v you_o ask_v of_o a_o papist_n first_o if_o the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o or_o if_o the_o true_a flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v there_o he_o will_v say_v it_o be_v there_o sacrament_n the_o diverse_a opinion_n concern_v the_o presence_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o

ask_v he_o again_o by_o what_o instrument_n it_o be_v receive_v he_o will_v tell_v you_o by_o the_o mouth_n and_o stomach_n of_o the_o body_n so_o this_o be_v their_o gross_a understanding_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n will_v you_o ask_v of_o the_o vbiquiter_n if_o the_o true_a body_n of_o christ_n be_v present_a he_o will_v say_v it_o be_v will_v you_o ask_v if_o it_o it_o

real_o present_a that_o be_v present_v in_o the_o lord_n supper_n and_o not_o in_o the_o bread_n we_o will_v not_o say_v that_o his_o true_a flesh_n be_v present_a to_o the_o hand_n or_o to_o the_o
