fiction_n the_o protestans_fw-la and_o puritan_n communion_n a_o mere_a imagination_n or_o fiction_n our_o lord_n by_o faith_n eat_v his_o flesh_n and_o blood_n by_o faith_n imagine_v he_o there_o though_o he_o be_v as_o far_o of_o in_o deed_n and_o truth_n as_o it_o be_v to_o heaven_n that_o be_v nothing_o to_o the_o purpose_n for_o first_o these_o be_v their_o own_o word_n which_o be_v not_o where_o to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o scripture_n second_o we_o do_v not_o look_v for_o the_o action_n of_o man_n what_o they_o do_v or_o aught_o to_o do_v when_o they_o communicate_v or_o receive_v but_o for_o the_o action_n of_o god_n in_o prepare_v and_o give_v the_o thing_n they_o be_v to_o receive_v before_o they_o receive_v it_o three_o faith_n or_o imagination_n can_v not_o make_v a_o thing_n real_o absent_a to_o be_v real_o present_a as_o be_v manifest_a by_o experience_n and_o to_o believe_v that_o a_o thing_n which_o be_v indeed_o absent_a be_v real_o and_o indeed_o present_a be_v but_o a_o deceit_n in_o the_o imagination_n and_o a_o false_a faith_n which_o cann_v never_o make_v that_o which_o be_v not_o present_a to_o be_v present_a four_o suppose_v that_o these_o say_n of_o the_o puritan_n be_v true_a then_o the_o word_n and_o promise_n of_o christ_n be_v false_a and_o so_o he_o shall_v not_o be_v true_a god_n for_o these_o be_v not_o his_o word_n promise_n work_n and_o action_n but_o they_o wherefore_o if_o they_o say_v true_a than_o our_o lord_n have_v not_o fulfil_v his_o promise_n and_o so_o be_v not_o true_a god_n not_o faithful_a in_o all_o his_o word_n but_o see_v that_o he_o be_v true_a god_n and_o son_n of_o god_n and_o truth_n itself_o it_o necessary_o follow_v that_o he_o fulfil_v these_o his_o promise_n so_o solenne_o make_v and_o give_v his_o true_a and_o real_a flesh_n to_o eat_v and_o blood_n to_o drink_v in_o the_o communion_n 9_o and_o this_o be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v heretofore_o the_o argument_n body_n christ_n be_v god_n because_o he_o can_v change_v bread_n into_o his_o body_n of_o s._n irenaeus_n to_o prove_v against_o some_o heretic_n who_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v god_n the_o change_v of_o bread_n into_o his_o body_n and_o wine_n into_o his_o blood_n say_v in_o the_o 34._o chap._n of_o his_o 4._o book_n of_o heresy_n how_o will_v it_o be_v manifest_a to_o these_o heretic_n who_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o god_n that_o the_o bread_n upon_o which_o thanks_n be_v give_v be_v the_o body_n of_o their_o lord_n and_o the_o chalice_n his_o blood_n if_o they_o do_v not_o say_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o son_n of_o the_o biulder_n of_o the_o world_n that_o be_v to_o say_v his_o word_n by_o which_o tree_n be_v be_v fruit_n fountain_n flow_v the_o earth_n first_o do_v give_v the_o blade_n afterward_o the_o ear_n then_o full_a wheat_n in_o the_o ear_n thus_o s._n irenaeus_n who_o live_v why_o lest_o yet_o some_o of_o the_o apostle_n scholar_n be_v live_v and_o the_o action_n of_o our_o saviour_n and_o the_o apostle_n be_v fresh_a in_o the_o memory_n of_o man_n and_o from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o even_o in_o the_o primitive_a church_n none_o deny_v that_o christ_n give_v his_o true_a flesh_n and_o blood_n in_o the_o communion_n but_o those_o who_o deny_v he_o to_o be_v god_n as_o witness_v s._n hilarius_n in_o his_o 8._o book_n of_o the_o trinity_n say_v christ_n say_v my_o flesh_n be_v meat_n indeed_o and_o my_o blood_n be_v drink_v indeed_o he_o that_o eat_v my_o flesh_n and_o drink_v my_o blood_n remain_v in_o i_o and_o i_o in_o he_o there_o be_v no_o place_n leave_v to_o doubt_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o blood_n of_o our_o lord_n in_o this_o sacrament_n for_o now_o by_o the_o profession_n of_o our_o lord_n himself_o and_o by_o our_o faith_n or_o according_a to_o our_o faith_n it_o be_v true_o blood_n and_o these_o thing_n be_v take_v into_o our_o hand_n as_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n and_o swallow_v down_o do_v work_v this_o that_o we_o may_v be_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o us._n and_o be_v not_o this_o truth_n it_o fall_v out_o very_o that_o it_o be_v not_o esteem_v true_a by_o those_o who_o deny_v christ_n to_o be_v god_n 10._o from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o when_o our_o lord_n first_o preach_v of_o this_o bless_a sacrament_n in_o the_o 6._o of_o it_o s._n peter_n believe_v the_o real_a presence_n before_o

and_o the_o kingdom_n of_o his_o church_n upon_o earth_n which_o he_o have_v purchase_v and_o plant_v with_o his_o blood_n and_o have_v espouse_v unto_o himself_o forever_o osee_n 2._o 19_o see_v
