A52720	The Catholick letter to the seeker, or, A reply to the Protestant answer shewing that Catholicks have express Scriptures, for believing the real presence, and that Protestants have none at all, for denying it.	N. N.	1688 (1688)	Wing N32; ESTC R9655	25,181	42

of_o the_o church_n for_o the_o true_a sense_n and_o mean_v thereof_o but_o if_o so_o as_o we_o must_v go_v to_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o church_n for_o the_o sense_n of_o scripture_n what_o then_o become_v of_o their_o bible-on_o rule-of-faith_n the_o gentleman_n go_v on_o and_o pag._n 5._o advise_v you_o to_o consult_v even_o those_o who_o be_v most_o concern_v and_o particular_o say_v he_o the_o author_n of_o your_o catholic_n answer_n who_o have_v undertake_v what_o the_o abovesaid_a learned_a person_n despair_v of_o to_o prove_v transubstantiation_n to_o the_o full_a of_o your_o request_n by_o express_a and_o plain_a text_n of_o scripture_n and_o in_o the_o same_o page_n tell_v you_o your_o catholic_n answerer_n it_o seem_v have_v read_v that_o which_o cardinal_n bellarmine_n have_v not_o see_v and_o that_o he_o have_v find_v out_o a_o great_a part_n of_o a_o chapter_n which_o the_o cardinal_n have_v overlooked_a but_o to_o turn_v his_o own_o cannon_n upon_o himself_o i_o may_v with_o more_o truth_n retort_n on_o he_o that_o he_o have_v read_v it_o seem_v in_o my_o answer_n what_o i_o never_o write_v and_o have_v find_v a_o great_a part_n thereof_o for_o which_o you_o and_o i_o be_v yet_o to_o stek_v for_o i_o do_v not_o find_v the_o word_n transubstantiation_n so_o much_o as_o mention_v in_o either_o your_o request_n or_o my_o answer_n for_o justification_n whereof_o i_o refer_v to_o both_o wherefore_o how_o sincere_a the_o gentleman_n have_v be_v in_o this_o particular_a let_v the_o world_n judge_n indeed_o the_o title_n of_o my_o answer_n say_v prove_v the_o real_a presence_n by_o scripture_n only_o and_o so_o do_v the_o current_n throughout_o the_o whole_a discourse_n but_o not_o one_o word_n of_o transubstantiation_n for_o that_o the_o controversy_n be_v not_o about_o the_o word_n transubstantiation_n but_o about_o the_o real_a presence_n or_o substance_n believe_v and_o deny_v in_o the_o sacrament_n but_o here_o you_o will_v say_v perhaps_o what_o be_v this_o to_o the_o purpose_n be_v not_o the_o real_a presence_n and_o transubstantiation_n all_o as_o one_o no_o true_o they_o be_v not_o so_o all_o one_o as_o you_o may_v think_v for_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o difference_n betwixt_o a_o man_n and_o the_o name_n by_o which_o he_o be_v distinguish_v and_o the_o measure_n that_o be_v take_v to_o prove_v he_o a_o man_n be_v not_o the_o same_o with_o those_o which_o be_v use_v to_o prove_v his_o name_n be_v thomas_n and_o so_o of_o the_o lord_n supper_n it_o be_v one_o thing_n to_o prove_v the_o real_a presence_n and_o be_v of_o christ_n body_n and_o blood_n in_o the_o sacrament_n and_o it_o be_v another_o to_o show_v reason_n why_o this_o mysterious_a change_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n into_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n be_v by_o the_o church_n call_v transubst_n antiation_n though_o whoever_o believe_v the_o one_o can_v in_o truth_n deny_v the_o other_o for_o if_o what_o our_o saviour_n say_v when_o matth._n 26._o verse_n 26._o jesus_n take_v bread_n and_o bless_v it_o and_o break_v it_o and_o give_v it_o to_o the_o disciple_n and_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v true_a that_o it_o be_v as_o he_o say_v his_o body_n than_o it_o imply_v a_o change_n from_o its_o former_a be_v bread_n to_o its_o present_a be_v his_o body_n and_o this_o mysterious_a change_n the_o holy_a catholic_n church_n do_v proper_o call_v transubst_n antiation_n not_o that_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n be_v change_v according_a to_o sensual_a taste_n but_o according_a to_o divine_a faith_n in_o jesus_n christ_n wherefore_o the_o gentleman_n methinks_v shall_v not_o have_v banter_v altogether_o as_o he_o do_v at_o the_o word_n transubst_n antiation_n but_o have_v speak_v to_o the_o substance_n and_o have_v either_o confess_v the_o real_a presence_n or_o have_v produce_v nothing_o but_o scripture_n to_o disprove_v it_o as_o be_v request_v the_o gentleman_n proceed_v notwithstanding_o and_o tell_v you_o pag._n 6._o that_o this_o discourse_n of_o our_o saviour_n be_v mean_v that_o in_o the_o 6_o chapter_n of_o st._n john_n have_v no_o special_a reference_n to_o the_o sacrament_n for_o that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o institute_v till_o say_v he_o above_o a_o year_n after_o as_o the_o time_n of_o this_o discourse_n show_v verse_n 4_o etc._n etc._n very_o well_o on_o which_o please_v to_o remark_n that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o then_o institute_v i_o grant_v as_o i_o do_v before_o in_o my_o answer_n pag._n 6._o where_o i_o say_v first_o i_o prove_v christ_n be_v promise_n before_o he_o institute_v the_o sacrament_n etc._n etc._n and_o so_o far_o the_o gentleman_n may_v have_v spare_v his_o labour_n but_o that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v not_o institute_v till_o above_o a_o year_n after_o be_v what_o he_o can_v show_v no_o rule_n for_o for_o the_o text_n which_o he_o cite_v to_o prove_v his_o assertion_n be_v this_o john_n 6._o verse_n 4._o and_o the_o passover_n a_o feast_n of_o the_o jew_n be_v nigh_o now_o that_o this_o word_n nigh_n shall_v signify_v above_o a_o year_n after_o be_v such_o a_o figure_n as_o never_o be_v whereas_o st._n luke_n have_v the_o same_o word_n say_v chap._n 22._o verse_n 1._o now_o the_o feast_n of_o unleavened_a bread_n draw_v nigh_o which_o be_v call_v the_o passover_n and_o immediate_o the_o passover_n follow_v as_o appear_v by_o the_o chapter_n and_o st._n mark_n treat_v not_o of_o the_o passover_n till_o within_o two_o day_n of_o it_o say_v chap._n 14._o verse_n 1._o after_o two_o day_n be_v the_o feast_n of_o the_o passover_n so_o st._n matth._n 26._o verse_n 2._o you_o know_v that_o after_o two_o day_n be_v the_o feast_n of_o the_o passover_n etc._n etc._n i_o do_v not_o say_v that_o the_o word_n nigh_n in_o st._n john_n signify_v so_o near_o as_o two_o day_n nor_o do_v i_o find_v by_o express_a and_o plain_a scripture_n that_o it_o be_v to_o be_v take_v for_o above_o a_o year_n after_o but_o whether_o what_o be_v say_v in_o the_o 6_o chapter_n of_o st._n john_n have_v any_o reference_n to_o the_o sacrament_n be_v the_o quaery_n for_o though_o our_o saviour_n do_v not_o then_o institute_n the_o sacrament_n yet_o he_o say_v verse_n 51._o and_o the_o bread_n which_o i_o will_v give_v be_v my_o flesh_n which_o i_o will_v give_v for_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world._n by_o which_o you_o see_v that_o though_o he_o do_v not_o then_o give_v we_o this_o bread_n yet_o he_o promise_v he_o will_v give_v we_o bread_n to_o eat_v which_o shall_v be_v the_o very_a same_o flesh_n which_o he_o will_v and_o afterward_o do_v give_v for_o the_o life_n of_o the_o world._n now_o whether_o this_o absolute_a promise_n have_v any_o reference_n to_o the_o ensue_a performance_n be_v you_o the_o judge_n when_o at_o his_o last_o supper_n he_o take_v bread_n and_o bless_v it_o and_o break_v it_o and_o give_v it_o to_o his_o disciple_n and_o say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n if_o therefore_o this_o bread_n which_o he_o here_o give_v we_o to_o eat_v say_v take_v eat_v this_o be_v my_o body_n be_v not_o that_o bread_n which_o he_o promise_v he_o will_v give_v we_o to_o eat_v which_o shall_v be_v his_o flesh_n pray_v ask_v your_o protetestant_a answerer_n where_o when_o and_o how_o do_v christ_n give_v we_o bread_n to_o eat_v which_o shall_v be_v his_o flesh_n if_o this_o be_v it_o not_o the_o gentleman_n go_v on_o and_o pag._n 7._o tell_v you_o these_o verse_n viz._n 53_o 54_o 55_o 56_o 57_o do_v show_v where_o our_o saviour_n say_v except_o you_o eat_v and_o whoso_o eateih_n etc._n etc._n in_o all_o which_o the_o present_a time_n be_v speak_v of_o but_o why_o the_o gentleman_n shall_v begin_v at_o verse_n 53._o and_o thereby_o skip_v verse_n 51._o i_o know_v not_o where_o christ_n tell_v they_o before_o that_o he_o will_v in_o the_o future_a tense_n give_v they_o bread_n to_o eat_v which_o shall_v be_v his_o flesh_n and_o then_o tell_v they_o that_o except_o they_o do_v eat_v and_o whoso_o eat_v etc._n etc._n not_o that_o he_o do_v then_o give_v or_o that_o they_o do_v then_o eat_v his_o flesh_n or_o drink_v his_o
