real_a body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v flesh_n and_o bone_n it_o follow_v by_o their_o doctrine_n that_o there_o be_v no_o bread_n leave_v in_o the_o sacrament_n as_o it_o be_v minister_v by_o they_o which_o error_n of_o the_o real_a and_o bodily_a presence_n and_o of_o the_o change_n and_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o bread_n into_o the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n be_v convict_v to_o be_v most_o absurd_a and_o erroneous_a both_o by_o the_o scripture_n and_o by_o common_a sense_n and_o reason_n for_o the_o scripture_n even_o after_o the_o consecration_n and_o set_v apart_o of_o the_o bread_n to_o that_o sacred_a and_o holy_a use_n to_o be_v a_o sacrament_n of_o the_o lord_n body_n do_v often_o call_v it_o bread_n as_o it_o appear_v in_o the_o first_o epistle_n to_o the_o corinthian_n chap._n 11._o where_o it_o be_v say_v the_o bread_n that_o we_o break_v be_v it_o not_o the_o communion_n of_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n 4.15_o pillip_n 2.6.7_o heb._n 4.15_o and_o in_o the_o chap._n 11._o as_o oft_o as_o you_o shall_v eat_v of_o this_o bread_n and_o after_o diverse_a time_n this_o appear_v also_o in_o that_o the_o scripture_n teach_v that_o christ_n become_v man_n have_v the_o true_a nature_n of_o man_n like_o to_o we_o in_o all_o thing_n sin_v only_o except_v which_o proove_v that_o his_o body_n can_v be_v in_o the_o small_a compass_n of_o a_o wafer_n cake_n have_v the_o dimension_n and_o measure_n of_o length_n breadth_n and_o thickness_n which_o other_o man_n body_n have_v and_o whereas_o it_o be_v pretend_v to_o be_v so_o by_o miracle_n this_o be_v disprove_v two_o way_n first_o in_o that_o the_o scripture_n which_o make_v express_v mention_n of_o christ_n miracle_n do_v never_o make_v mention_n nor_o observation_n of_o any_o miracle_n to_o have_v be_v do_v by_o he_o in_o this_o change_a bread_n into_o his_o body_n second_o the_o scripture_n make_v mention_n of_o any_o miraculous_a change_n of_o one_o substance_n into_o another_o do_v declare_v that_o the_o change_n have_v be_v such_o as_o be_v to_o be_v judge_v discern_v and_o perceive_v by_o all_o mean_n of_o understanding_n both_o of_o sense_n and_o reason_n as_o for_o example_n when_o christ_n change_v water_n into_o wine_n 11._o john_n 2.9_o 10_o 11._o the_o wine_n be_v perceive_v to_o be_v wine_n by_o the_o sight_n and_o taste_v so_o discern_v of_o it_o but_o in_o this_o case_n neither_o do_v the_o eye_n see_v any_o flesh_n nor_o the_o taste_n discern_v of_o any_o but_o contrariwise_o that_o the_o bread_n remain_v bread_n still_o in_o substance_n appear_v by_o the_o sight_n smell_v savour_n and_o the_o taste_n thereof_o by_o the_o effect_n of_o nourish_v by_o the_o place_n where_o it_o be_v on_o earth_n and_o by_o the_o accident_n of_o whiteness_n smallness_n roundness_n and_o by_o that_o it_o become_v in_o time_n to_o be_v subject_a to_o be_v mouldy_a and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v eat_v by_o mouse_n and_o vermine_n but_o it_o be_v most_o false_a erroneous_a and_o blasphemous_a to_o affirm_v that_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n which_o be_v most_o glorious_a in_o heaven_n can_v be_v subject_a to_o any_o of_o these_o accident_n beside_o how_o great_a be_v that_o blasphemy_n whereby_o it_o be_v say_v under_o pretence_n of_o this_o transubstantiation_n that_o the_o priest_n be_v the_o creator_n of_o his_o creator_n &_o maker_n of_o his_o maker_n but_o it_o will_v ask_v a_o long_a time_n to_o lay_v out_o the_o argument_n &_o reason_n that_o confute_v this_o absurd_a &_o damnable_a error_n and_o this_o labour_n be_v already_o partly_o bestow_v in_o answer_n to_o another_o question_n of_o this_o kind_n therefore_o thus_o much_o may_v here_o suffice_v to_o show_v that_o by_o the_o error_n of_o transubstantiation_n there_o be_v not_o leave_v any_o bread_n upon_o the_o lord_n table_n by_o they_o that_o affirm_v the_o bread_n to_o be_v change_v into_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o that_o this_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v want_v in_o the_o mass_n now_o for_o the_o other_o the_o same_o may_v be_v say_v concern_v the_o wine_n which_o they_o do_v likewise_o teach_v to_o be_v turne●_n into_o the_o very_a blood_n of_o christ_n but_o it_o appear_v also_o further_o in_o that_o they_o have_v sacrilegious_o rob_v the_o lord_n table_n of_o that_o bless_a cup_n that_o belong_v to_o it_o for_o although_o they_o suffer_v the_o priest_n to_o drink_v of_o the_o cup_n and_o the_o people_n also_o to_o drink_v wine_n yet_o the_o wine_n that_o they_o give_v the_o people_n be_v not_o consecrate_v nor_o any_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n therefore_o in_o such_o administration_n be_v commit_v a_o sacrilegious_a abuse_n in_o rob_v the_o lord_n table_n and_o his_o people_n of_o the_o cup_n of_o blessing_n which_o be_v the_o communion_n as_o the_o apostle_n paul_n speak_v of_o the_o blood_n of_o christ_n and_o contrariwise_o our_o administration_n of_o the_o lord_n supper_n in_o both_o kind_n of_o bread_n and_o wine_n be_v according_a to_o the_o doctrine_n practice_n and_o commandment_n of_o our_o saviour_n christ_n and_o of_o his_o apostle_n furthermore_o as_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o sea_n of_o rome_n have_v abolish_v both_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n so_o have_v it_o pervert_v the_o right_a end_n and_o use_v for_o which_o it_o be_v institute_v for_o t●at_v be_v as_o have_v be_v declare_v and_o as_o it_o be_v make_v know_v to_o the_o people_n in_o our_o administration_n of_o it_o to_o be_v a_o sacrament_n whereby_o we_o celebrate_v the_o memory_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n for_o our_o sin_n to_o the_o sign_v and_o confirm_v unto_o we_o our_o spiritual_a communion_n with_o he_o to_o the_o participation_n of_o all_o his_o gift_n even_o to_o life_n everlasting_a the_o church_n of_o rome_n have_v transfigure_v this_o sacrament_n into_o a_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a for_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o live_n and_o of_o the_o dead_a and_o to_o this_o end_n they_o have_v bring_v into_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n contrary_a to_o his_o word_n a_o priest_n and_o a_o altar_n that_o nothing_o may_v be_v want_v to_o the_o offering_n of_o their_o sacrifice_n in_o which_o sacrifice_n they_o teach_v that_o the_o priest_n do_v off●r_n christ_n every_o day_n unto_o his_o father_n as_o a_o sacrifice_n to_o take_v away_o sin_n of_o which_o propitiatory_a sacrifice_n our_o saviour_n christ_n &_o his_o apostle_n have_v make_v no_o mention_n at_o all_o but_o only_o of_o a_o commemoration_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o celebration_n whereof_o we_o magnify_v god_n and_o our_o saviour_n for_o such_o unspeakable_a mercy_n and_o goodness_n and_o so_o offer_v as_o it_o be_v a_o sacrifice_n of_o thanksgiving_n please_v and_o acceptable_a to_o god_n in_o christ_n jesus_n but_o of_o offer_v a_o sacrifice_n propitiatory_a to_o take_v away_o our_o sin_n and_o that_o daily_a and_o by_o the_o priest_n there_o be_v no_o word_n in_o the_o scripture_n for_o it_o contrariwise_o the_o scripture_n teach_v direct_o the_o contrary_a and_o declare_v this_o doctrine_n to_o be_v full_a of_o error_n and_o blasphemy_n for_o the_o scripture_n teach_v we_o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o only_a sacrifice_n that_o take_v away_o the_o sin_n of_o man_n which_o be_v that_o holy_a sacrifice_n which_o our_o saviour_n christ_n offer_v of_o himself_o that_o be_v of_o his_o humane_a nature_n assume_v for_o that_o purpose_n and_o that_o by_o his_o eternal_a spirit_n and_o that_o also_o once_o for_o all_o 28._o heb._n 9.14.25_o 26_o 28._o namely_o die_v upon_o the_o altar_n of_o the_o cross_n and_o by_o the_o sacrifice_n so_o offer_v he_o have_v obtain_v a_o everlasting_a redemption_n wherefore_o to_o affirm_v that_o the_o priest_n offer_v christ_n daily_a in_o sacrifice_n for_o sin_n derogate_v high_o from_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n wh_o reby_o the_o sin_n of_o the_o faithful_a be_v take_v away_o as_o if_o that_o have_v not_o be_v sufficient_a contrary_a to_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o the_o scripture_n attribute_v our_o redemption_n to_o his_o death_n and_o blood_n shed_v upon_o the_o cross_n second_o this_o doctrine_n high_o derogate_v from_o the_o virtue_n of_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n in_o that_o it_o teach_v that_o christ_n must_v be_v daily_o offer_v for_o sin_n whereas_o the_o scripture_n teach_v express_o the_o contrary_a say_v that_o christ_n
