in_o this_o faith_n be_v so_o far_o from_o the_o reach_n of_o man_n freewill_n that_o to_o reason_v it_o be_v plain_a foolishness_n therefore_o thou_o must_v first_o go_v to_o god_n who_o gift_n it_o

give_v thou_o faith_n raise_v she_o up_o and_o exalt_v thou_o on_o this_o manner_n therefore_o with_o the_o apostle_n and_o the_o poor_a man_n in_o the_o gospel_n that_o cry_v lord_n increase_v our_o faith_n lord_n help_v my_o unbelief_n pray_v thou_o and_o say_v o_o merciful_a god_n and_o dear_a father_n of_o our_o lord_n and_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n in_o who_o as_o thou_o be_v well_o

one_o sparkle_n of_o true_a faith_n and_o certain_a persuasion_n of_o thy_o goodness_n and_o love_n towards_o i_o in_o christ_n wherethrough_a i_o be_v assure_v of_o the_o pardon_n of_o all_o my_o

this_o sort_n i_o say_v or_o otherwise_o as_o god_n shall_v move_v thou_o pray_v thou_o first_o of_o all_o and_o look_v for_o thy_o request_n at_o god_n hand_n without_o any_o doubt_n though_o forthwith_o thou_o feel_v not_o the_o same_o for_o oftentimes_o we_o have_v thing_n of_o god_n give_v we_o long_o before_o we_o feel_v they_o as_o we_o will_v do_v now_o unto_o this_o prayer_n use_v thou_o these_o mean_n follow_v after_o prayer_n for_o faith_n which_o i_o will_v shall_v be_v first_o second_o because_o the_o same_o spring_v out_o of_o the_o hear_n no_o of_o mass_n matin_n cannon_n counsel_n doctor_n decree_n but_o out_o of_o the_o hear_n of_o god_n word_n get_v thou_o god_n word_n but_o not_o that_o part_n which_o serve_v special_o to_o contrition_n that_o be_v the_o law_n but_o the_o other_o part_n which_o serve_v special_o to_o consolation_n and_o certain_a persuasion_n of_o god_n love_n towards_o thou_o that_o be_v the_o gospel_n or_o publication_n of_o god_n mercy_n in_o christ_n i_o mean_v the_o free_a promise_n but_o here_o thou_o must_v know_v that_o there_o be_v two_o kind_n of_o promise_n one_o which_o be_v proper_o of_o the_o law_n another_o of_o the_o gospel_n in_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n we_o may_v indeed_o behold_v god_n mercy_n but_o so_o that_o it_o hang_v upon_o the_o condition_n of_o our_o worthiness_n as_o if_o thou_o love_v the_o lord_n with_o all_o thy_o heart_n etc._n etc._n thou_o shall_v find_v mercy_n this_o kind_n of_o promise_n though_o it_o declare_v unto_o we_o god_n love_n which_o promise_v where_o he_o need_v not_o yet_o unto_o he_o that_o feel_v not_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o end_n of_o the_o law_n they_o be_v so_o far_a frnm_fw-la comfort_v that_o utter_o with_o the_o law_n they_o bring_v man_n to_o great_a despair_n so_o great_o we_o be_v corrupt_v for_o none_o so_o love_v god_n as_o he_o ought_v to_o do_v from_o these_o therefore_o get_v thou_o to_o the_o other_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o which_o we_o may_v see_v such_o plenty_n and_o frank_a liberality_n of_o god_n goodness_n that_o we_o can_v but_o be_v much_o comfort_v though_o we_o have_v very_o deep_o sin_v for_o these_o promise_n of_o the_o gospel_n do_v not_o hang_v on_o the_o condition_n of_o our_o worthiness_n as_o the_o promise_n of_o the_o law_n do_v but_o they_o depend_v and_o hang_v on_o god_n truth_n that_o as_o god_n be_v true_a so_o they_o can_v but_o be_v perform_v to_o all_o they_o which_o lie_v hold_v on_o they_o by_o faith_n i_o have_v almost_o say_v which_o cast_v they_o not_o away_o by_o unbelief_n mark_v in_o they_o therefore_o two_o thing_n namely_o that_o as_o well_o they_o be_v free_a promise_n without_o any_o condition_n of_o our_o worthiness_n as_o also_o that_o they_o be_v universal_a offer_v to_o all_o all_o i_o say_v which_o be_v not_o so_o stubborn_a as_o to_o keep_v still_o their_o hand_n whereby_o they_o shall_v receive_v this_o alm_n in_o their_o bosom_n by_o unbelief_n as_o

taste_n of_o these_o promise_n which_o be_v both_o free_a and_o universal_a except_o none_o but_o such_o as_o except_v themselves_o well_o you_o shall_v have_v one_o or_o two_o for_o a_o say_v in_o

the_o grace_n of_o god_n bring_v salvation_n to_o all_o man_n as_o from_o adam_n all_o have_v receive_v sin_n to_o damnation_n so_o by_o christ_n all_o have_v grace_v offer_v to_o salvation_n if_o they_o reject_v not_o the_o same_z i_o speak_v not_o now_o of_o infant_n i_o say_v nor_o i_o need_v not_o enter_v into_o the_o matter_n of_o predestination_n in_o preach_v of_o repentance_n i_o will_v

satan_n do_v so_o rather_o consider_v with_o peter_n that_o the_o promise_n of_o salvation_n pertain_v not_o only_o to_o they_o which_o be_v nigh_o that_o be_v to_o such_o as_o be_v fall_v a_o

very_o far_o off_o the_o promise_n therefore_o pertain_v to_o thou_o needs_o must_v thou_o be_v save_v except_o thou_o with_o satan_n say_v god_n be_v false_a and_o if_o thou_o do_v so_o god_n be_v

now_o the_o matter_n hang_v not_o on_o thy_o worthiness_n but_o it_o hang_v on_o god_n truth_n clap_v hold_n on_o it_o and_o i_o warrant_v thou_o christ_n be_v the_o propitiation_n for_o our_o sin_n yea_o for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o whole_a world_n believe_v this_o man_n i_o
to_o have_v everlasting_a life_n that_o eat_v he_o which_o the_o wicked_a have_v not_o although_o they_o eat_v the_o sacrament_n he_o that_o eat_v of_o this_o bread_n say_v christ_n shall_v live_v for_o evermore_o therefore_o they_o eat_v not_o christ_n body_n but_o as_o paul_n say_v they_o eat_v in_o judgement_n and_o damnation_n which_o believe_v it_o be_v a_o other_o manner_n of_o thing_n then_o christ_n body_n this_o do_v s._n augustine_n affirm_v say_v none_o do_v eat_v christ_n body_n which_o be_v not_o in_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n that_o be_v as_o he_o expound_v it_o in_o who_o christ_n dwell_v not_o and_o he_o in_o christ_n which_o thing_n the_o wicked_a do_v not_o because_o they_o want_v faith_n and_o the_o holy_a spirit_n which_o be_v the_o mean_n whereby_o christ_n be_v receive_v to_o the_o thing_n which_o i_o have_v bring_v hereforth_o to_o improve_v transubstantiation_n i_o can_v bring_v in_o the_o father_n to_o confirm_v the_o same_o which_o succeed_v contnual_o many_o hundred_o year_n after_o christ_n also_o i_o can_v show_v that_o transubstantiation_n be_v but_o a_o new_a doctrine_n not_o establish_v before_o satan_n which_o be_v tie_v for_o a_o thousand_o year_n be_v let_v loose_a also_o i_o can_v show_v that_o ever_o hitherto_o since_o it_o be_v establish_v in_o all_o time_n it_o have_v be_v resist_v and_o speak_v against_o yea_o before_o this_o doctrine_n the_o church_n be_v nothing_o so_o endow_v with_o good_n land_n and_o possession_n as_o it_o have_v be_v since_o it_o have_v bring_v no_o small_a gain_n no_o small_a honour_n no_o small_a

breath_n of_o his_o mouth_n as_o short_o he_o will_v for_o his_o name_n sake_n amen_n if_o time_n will_v serve_v i_o can_v and_o will_v here_o tell_v you_o of_o the_o absurdity_n which_o come_v by_o this_o doctrine_n but_o for_o time_n sake_n i_o must_v omit_v it_o only_o for_o god_n sake_n see_v this_o that_o this_o their_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n be_v a_o untruth_n already_o i_o have_v prove_v and_o forget_v not_o that_o it_o be_v the_o whole_a stay_n of_o all_o popery_n and_o the_o pillar_n of_o their_o priesthood_n whereby_o christ_n priesthood_n sacrifice_n ministry_n and_o truth_n be_v let_v yea_o pervert_v and_o utter_o overthrow_v god_n our_o father_n in_o the_o blood_n of_o his_o son_n jesus_n christ_n open_v the_o eye_n and_o mind_n of_o all_o our_o magistrate_n all_o other_o that_o bear_v the_o name_n of_o christ_n to_o see_v to_o it_o in_o time_n to_o god_n glory_n and_o their_o own_o salvation_n amen_n now_o to_o return_v to_o the_o second_o matter_n what_o the_o sacrament_n be_v you_o see_v that_o to_o the_o sense_n and_o reason_n of_o man_n it_o be_v bread_n and_o wine_n which_o be_v most_o true_a as_o by_o the_o scripture_n and_o otherwise_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v and_o therefore_o away_o with_o transubstantiation_n but_o here_o lest_o we_o shall_v make_v it_o no_o sacrament_n for_o a_o sacrament_n consist_v of_o two_o thing_n and_o lest_o a_o man_n shall_v by_o this_o gather_v that_o we_o make_v it_o none_o other_o thing_n but_o bare_a bread_n and_o a_o naked_a sign_n and_o so_o rail_v at_o their_o pleasure_n on_o we_o say_v how_o can_v a_o man_n be_v guilty_a of_o the_o body_n &_o blood_n of_o christ_n by_o unworthy_a receive_n it_o if_o it_o be_v but_o bare_a bread_n and_o so_o forth_o for_o this_o purpose_n i_o will_v now_o speak_v a_o little_a more_o hereabout_o by_o god_n grace_n to_o stop_v your_o mouth_n and_o so_o to_o stir_v up_o your_o good_a heart_n more_o to_o the_o worthy_a estimation_n and_o preception_n of_o this_o holy_a mystery_n when_o a_o love_a friend_n give_v to_o thou_o a_o thing_n or_o send_v to_o thou_o a_o token_n as_o for_o a_o example_n a_o napkin_n or_o such_o like_a i_o think_v thou_o do_v not_o as_o thou_o shall_v do_v if_o that_o with_o the_o thing_n thou_o consider_v not_o the_o mind_n of_o thy_o friend_n that_o send_v or_o give_v the_o thing_n and_o according_a thereunto_o esteem_v and_o receive_v it_o and_o so_o of_o this_o bread_n think_v i_o that_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o rather_o consider_v the_o mind_n of_o thy_o lover_n christ_n than_o the_o thing_n which_o thou_o see_v yea_o if_o thou_o do_v not_o altogether_o consider_v christ_n mind_n thou_o deal_v unhonest_o and_o strumpetlike_a with_o he_o for_o it_o be_v the_o property_n of_o strumpet_n to_o consider_v the_o thing_n give_v and_o send_v they_o rather_o than_o the_o love_n and_o mind_n of_o the_o giver_n and_o sender_n whereas_o the_o true_a lover_n do_v not_o consider_v in_o any_o point_n the_o thing_n give_v or_o send_v but_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o party_n so_o we_o if_o we_o be_v true_a lover_n of_o christ_n must_v not_o consider_v hare_o the_o outward_a thing_n which_o we_o see_v and_o our_o sense_n perceive_v but_o rather_o altogether_o we_o must_v and_o shall_v see_v and_o consider_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n and_o hereafter_o and_o according_o to_o it_o to_o esteem_v the_o sacrament_n but_o how_o shall_v we_o know_v the_o mind_n of_o christ_n sure_o as_o a_o man_n mind_n be_v best_a know_v by_o his_o word_n so_o by_o christ_n word_n shall_v we_o know_v his_o mind_n now_o his_o word_n be_v manifest_a and_o most_o plain_a this_o say_v he_o be_v my_o body_n therefore_o according_o shall_v we_o esteem_v take_v and_o receive_v it_o if_o he_o have_v speak_v nothing_o or_o if_o he_o have_v speak_v doubtful_o then_o may_v we_o have_v be_v in_o some_o doubt_n but_o in_o that_o he_o speak_v so_o plain_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n who_o can_v may_v or_o dare_v be_v so_o bold_a as_o to_o doubt_v of_o it_o he_o be_v the_o truth_n and_o can_v lie_v he_o be_v omnipotent_a and_o can_v do_v all_o thing_n therefore_o it_o be_v his_o body_n this_o i_o believe_v this_o i_o confess_v and_o pray_v you_o all_o hearty_o to_o beware_v of_o these_o and_o such_o like_a word_n that_o it_o be_v but_o a_o sign_n or_o figure_n of_o his_o body_n except_o you_o will_v discern_v betwixt_o sign_n which_o signify_v only_o and_o sign_n which_o also_o do_v represent_v confirm_v and_o seal_v up_o or_o as_o a_o man_n may_v say_v give_v with_o their_o signification_n as_o for_o a_o example_n a_o juy_n bush_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o wine_n to_o be_v sell_v the_o bud_a of_o aaron_n rod_n do_v signify_v aaron_n priesthood_n allow_v of_o the_o lord_n the_o reservation_n of_o moses_n rod_n do_v signify_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n the_o stone_n take_v out_o of_o jordan_n gedeon_n fleece_n of_o wool_n etc._n etc._n such_o as_o these_o be_v sign_n significative_a and_o show_v no_o gift_n but_o in_o the_o other_o sign_n which_o some_o call_v exhibitive_a be_v there_o not_o only_o a_o signification_n of_o the_o thing_n but_o also_o a_o declaration_n of_o a_o gift_n be_v in_o a_o certain_a manner_n a_o give_v also_o as_o baptism_n not_o only_o signify_v the_o cleanse_n of_o the_o conscience_n from_o sin_n by_o the_o merit_n of_o christ_n blood_n but_o also_o be_v a_o very_a cleanse_n from_o sin_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v say_v to_o paul_n that_o he_o shall_v arise_v and_o wash_v away_o his_o sin_n and_o not_o that_o he_o shall_v arise_v and_o take_v only_o a_o sign_n of_o wash_v away_o his_o sin_n in_o the_o lord_n supper_n the_o bread_n be_v call_v a_o partake_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n and_o not_o only_o a_o bare_a sign_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n this_o i_o speak_v not_o as_o though_o the_o element_n of_o these_o sacrament_n be_v transsubstantiate_a which_o i_o have_v already_o impugn_a either_o as_o though_o christ_n body_n be_v in_o bread_n or_o wine_n or_o that_o they_o be_v tie_v to_o the_o element_n otherwise_o then_o sacramental_o and_o spiritual_o either_o that_o the_o bread_n and_o wine_n may_v not_o and_o must_v not_o be_v call_v sacramental_a and_o external_a sign_n but_o that_o they_o may_v be_v discern_v from_o significative_a and_o bare_a sign_n only_o and_o he_o take_v for_o sign_n exhibitive_a and_o representive_a by_o this_o mean_v a_o christian_a conscience_n will_v call_v and_o esteem_v the_o bread_n of_o the_o lord_n as_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n for_o it_o will_v never_o esteem_v the_o sacrament_n of_o christ_n after_o their_o exterior_a apearance_n but_o after_o the_o word_n of_o christ_n whereof_o it_o come_v that_o the_o father_n as_o chrysostome_n and_o
