which wer offered in the olde law Whiche oblacions were therfore corrupted weake and of no effect because that thei were oftentymes repeted iterated and offered of newe againe Therfore we must confesse that ryther this sacrifice of Christe whiche he did offer in the crosse doeth lacke and wante the vertue of euerlasting purificacion clensyng and redempcion or that it was ones sufficiently offered for euer Whiche thyng the apostle in the ix and .x. to the Hebrues doeth testifie saiyng This high bisshop Iesus Christe did appere ones in the ende of the worlde to put syn to flyght by the offeryng vp of hym selfe Againe we are by the wyl of god sanctified by the offeryng vp of the bodye of Iesu Christe ones Item Christe did with one oblacion make them perfect for euer whiche are sanctified vnto whiche saiynges he doeth adde this godly sentence and where remission of these thynges that is to saie of sinnes is there remaineth no mo offeryng for synne This thing did Christ whan he did yelde vp the goost signifie saiyng Consummatum est that is to saie It is finisshed With the whiche worde Christe doeth testifie that with this one onely sacrifyce he hath consummated perfourmed and fulfilled what so euer is necessary to our saluacion But yet not withstandyng we doe daily vnto this omni sufficient and moste perfecte sacrifice as though it wer moste vnperfecte patche innumerable sacrifices Sith therfore that the holy and sacred worde of god doth affyrme proteste and testifye that the vertue of this sacrifice ones offered for euer doeth euerlastyngly continue doe not thei that require any other moste blasphemously insimulate and accuse it of imperfeccion weakenesse Now the masse whiche for that entent was instituted that euery daye MMM sacrifices might be offered what other thyng I praye doeth it go about but vtterly to drowne and burye the passion of Christe wherin he did offer him selfe a sufficient sacrifice vnto his heauenly father Here euery man except he be vtterly blynde maie see that this is the extreme boldnesse of Sathan the diuell whiche repugneth to so manifeste and open truthe But lette vs see with what subtiltee this father of lies doeth go about to cloke his impietye and vngodly inuencion We doe not saieth he offer sondry and diuers sacrifices but that one sacrifice onely suche myste with the beames of the light sonne truthe and veritee is sone discussed and driuen away For Paule doeth not onely affirme that there remayne no more sacrifices but also that this one sacrifice ones offered for euer can be offered no more Some men woulde escape more subtilli and craftily saiyng that thei do not offer it of new again but that thei doe apply the frutes therof vnto vs. This vaine sophistrie also can easily be confuted for Christ did not offer hymselfe vpon this condicion that his sacrifice shulde be euery daie confirmed and ratified with newe oblacions but that with the preachyng of the gospell and ministryng of his holye souper the profittes therof shulde be communicated to vs. For Paule saieth that Christe our passeouer is immolated or offered and therfore he biddeth vs to eate and drinke c. This I saie is the right waie to applye this sacrifice of the crosse vnto vs whan we fede vpon the bodye and bloud of Christ spiritually either in the holy misteryes or in the hearyng and receiuyng of his worde faithfully here I thinke necessari to touch a littell what they dooe alledge for the chief foundacion of theyr masse God in the fyrst chap. of Malachie speaketh after this maner From the easte to the weast my name is great emong the gentilles and in all places encence is offered vp vnto my name and a pure offeryng also for my name is dreadful emong the gentilles Here ye maie see saie they that the prophete many yeres before the incarnacion of Christe did prophecie of this holy sacrifice of the Masse For what other sacrifice or offeryng shoulde he meane Thou shault therfore vnderstond good christen reader that therbe .ii. kindes of sacrifices The one called Propitiatorium or expiatorium that is to saie a sacrifice wherwith the wrath of god is pacified full satisfaccion and amendes is made for all thesynnes of the worlde the sinners that flye vnto it by faithe so reconciled that thei be accoumpted iuste rightuous before god This sacrifice did Christ ones offer for euer in the altare of the crosse as we haue shewed by the worde of god And for this cause were al y sacrifices of the olde lawe whiche did prefygurate that one onely sacrifice called propitiatories The other is called Eucharisticum that is to saie a sacrifice of thankes geuyng whiche comprehendeth all the partes of charitee and loue For by it we honour god in his lymmes we doe offer vnto him our praiers laudes and thankes geuynge whiche by the strength of that other sacrifice are acceptable vnto god That therfore Malachie did meane this sacrifyce we wyll proue by strong scriptures whiche the papistes shall neuer bee able to auoyde Let my praier O lorde saieth dauid ascēd vp before thy sight as encence C .xli. psalme Againe Paule cōmaundeth vs to offer our bodyes a liuely sacrifice and reasonable worshyppyng Item Paule doeth call the liberalitye of the Philipenses wher with thei did refresshe hym an offeryng of swete smell Also Osee doeth call our thankes geuyng the calues of our lippes whiche Dauid doeth call the sacrifice of laude and praise And Paule in the .xiii. to the Hebrues the fruites of our lippes that confesse the name of the lorde wherby any man may see that Malachie did in the foresayd place vnderstonde this later sacrifice of thankes geuyng as holy Hierome in his commen taries vpon the foresaide place doeth testifie Reade the place who will Now haue I proued by the scriptures that Malachi helpeth them nothyng but that this sacrifice of the Masse is a new inuencion of Sathan to deface the crosse and passion of Christe The .iii. blasphemie NOw we will come to the thyrde blasphemye and proue that the Masse doeth obliterate and driue away from the memory of al mē that precious and moste wholsome death of Christ For as the approuyng of the testament or laste wil of a man dependeth of his death so the testament wherin our lorde Iesus Christ did be quest vnto vs fre remissiō of our synnes and euerlasting rightuousenesse was confyrmed and approued by his death They that doe immutate alter or change any thynge in this testament dooe denye his deathe and accoumpt it for naught But what is the masse but a new cleane contrary testamēt doeth not euery one of theyr masses promesse a new remission of synnes and a new acquisicion or pourchassyng of rightuousenes We haue now as many testamentes as we haue masses Let Christe come therfore with an other death yea with infinite deathes confirme the innumerable testamentes of the masses That ther fore that I haue sayed is very
