A08891 The fal of Babel By the confusion of tongues directly proving against the Papists of this, and former ages; that a view of their writings, and bookes being taken; cannot be discerned by any man living, what they would say, or how be vnderstoode, in the question of the sacrifice of the masse, the reall presence or transubstantiation, but in explaning their mindes they fall vpon such termes, as the Protestants vse and allow. Further in the question of the Popes supremacy is shevved, how they abuse an authority of the auncient father St. Cyprian, a canon of the I Niceene counsell, and the ecclesiastical historie of Socrates, and Sozomen.

Christs sacrifice on the Crosse was is propitiatory but a sacrifice that representeth that sacrifice sheweth it also before the e●es of the faithfull and refresheth the effectual memory of it What should any cockle doe amongst this corne why should he presently insert that the catholike doctrine teacheth the daily sacrifice to be the same in Esse●c that was offered on the Crosse once Come to the comparison betweene the sacrifice of the Masse and that of the Crosse of the strenght vertue force of the one and of the other they knowe not what to say The offering on the crosse saith he was is propitiatorie satisfactory for our redemption remission of sinnes Note well Ibid 150. a.

Allen himselfe stumbleth at this againe when he would haue the sacrifice of the masse to be held not an absolute and independent sacrifice but to be referred as all the Iewish sacrifices were to the only fountaine of sacrifices the death of Christ why should it not be absolute independent since you say that Christs sacrifice at his last supper had noe greater effect then that of your masse done by the Preist that of your masse being the same in essence with that of the Crosse what blasphemy is it in Allen to cōpare it with those sacrifices of the Iewes r●ferre it to the fountaine that is to it selfe Againe is it any maruaile if Gardiner shew himselfe vnconstant in these kinde of questions Mirum vero impudenter mulier si facit meretrix Ter. in And. act 4. seen 4 Gard. ib. 151. b 152. a. The pure sacrifice of the Church saith he is there offered for the effect of the increase of life in vs as it was offered on the crosse to atcheiue life vnto vs. And yet in the verie next page out of Cyrill he wold haue the sacrifice of the Church to be vinificum a sacrifice giuing life And yet he addeth which is more woūderful that that cā be only said of the very body blood of Christ so that one where he deuideth our redēption betweene the Preists sacrifice Christs Intollerable blasphemy the one to giue life the other to increase our life that is noe lesse then flat blasphemy For al Christians doe beleiue that the sacrifice made on the crosse doth both giue vs life also increase continue the same the Priests oblation doth neither of both for our redemption eternall saluation standeth not only in giueing vs life but in continuing the same for euer as Christ said that hee came not only to giue vs life but also to make vs increase and abound therin Iohn 10. Gal. 2. And S. Paule saith the life which I now liue in flesh I liue by the faith of the sonne of God who loued me gaue himselfe for me And therfore if we haue the one by the oblation of Christ the other by the oblation of the Preist then deuide we our salvation betweene Christ the Preist shal haue our saluation redemption as much by the sacrifice made by the Preist as we haue by that of the Crosse done by Christ himselfe If any man rescue him by saying he referreth vinificū that sacrifice gyuing life to the body blood of Christ whether on the Crosse or sacrificed in the masse then ouerthroweth he his owne distinction made before of giuing and increasing life maketh the masse an independent and absolute sacrifice which Allen wil none of Thus haue you a breife of what Gardiner hath said touching the sacrifice of the masse where you see he runneth too fro so astonied amased as if hee were at his wits end knewe not what to say For one while the Preist maketh a sacrifice propitiatory an other while he doth not now hee giueth life now hee giueth none nowe is Christ the ful sauiour satisfactiō now the Preist hath halfe

Allen in two seuerall chapters goeth about to proue First that Christ did blesse or Eucharishze the bread wine that with certaine words next that those wordes Hoc est corpus meum this is my body are the words of Consecration that those two are both one first frō the nature of the worde benedicere to blesse he discourseth wonderfully both in Greeke Latine of the strength vertue of it Fol. 291 Quanquam totam ceremo niam ordinem non narrent nec plura verba quibus ea seu ●ucharisti● seu Eulogia facta est Ver bonè an sola voluntat● aut impositione manuum fol. 294. Luc. vlt. the vse it hath in holy scripture in the Doctors yet hath not brought any one example neere his purpose For how can he say that that blessing vsed by our sauiour was the blessing of the creatures elemēts an actiue blessing a powerful blessing seeing he confesseth himselfe that the Evangelists doe not recite any order of the blessing nor expresse any more wordes that belongeth therto but only the words blessing giuing thaukes and also doubteth whether Christ did blesse by auie words or by his intent and will or by laying on of hands For we read not saith he what Christ did or said in the blessing of the things Notwithstanding this hee is so far in loue with his owne conceipt of blessing by certaine words that he bring eth the bread for an example which Christ blessed at Emaus when the two disciples knewe him which saith he is taken of many of the ancients to bee the Eucharist although the Evangelist recite no wordes in forme how it was done No words of consecration mentioned so that we may see whatsoeuer he is disposed to proue be there scripture or be there none all is one with him he wil aduenture to perswade what liketh him best Allen eodem lib post c. 45. fol. 480. And yet the same mā a farre of in an other part of the same booke speaking of the same matter as hauing forgotten himselfe saith That the text of S. Luke cap. vlt. and all the order of the narration doth shew that the whole action was like to the consecrating of the Eucharist Now it is the Eucharist hee tooke saith the Evangelist bread he blessed it he brake the bread and reached it vnto them If this action here done be like to the order of consecration vsed at the Eucharist then there may be consecration without addition of This is my body which hee professeth to proue to bee al one or to be the words of blessing it selfe yea without receauing at al for there is no commaund of eating Allen trauerseth here this example to proue the cōmunion in one kinde lawfull for the lay people But I would not wish D. Allen or any papist of them al to liue by the losse for although they thinke to gaine by the practise of Christ there in drawing it to confirme their defaulking of one part of the sacramēt from the lay people because there is no mention made of the wine yet will they lose by it if the exāple were stronge enough for one kinde because there is no mention of any consecration where no consecration is there is no reall presence and so they shall lose Transubstantiation all And can it bee the Eucharist without these But howsoeuer D. Allen woulde haue vs beleeue that it is the opinion of many of the ancients and of great druines that that is to be vnderstood of the Eucharist yet Bellarmine who is more freer of his report saith De sacrā ieuc l. 4. c. 24. f. 563. that touching that place there be two opinions amongst the Catholikes themselues The one is of Iohn of Louaine others that it was the Eucharist the other of Iansenius that it was not the Eucharist both these great men with that side But to returne to D.

Harding Whē we acknowledge by faith saith hee Christs body present although we saie it is present truly really substantially yet we saie our senses be not priuie to that presence ne the maner of it but by instruction of faith and therfore we say Christs body is not locally present nor by maner of quantitie but in visibly and in no sensible maner but marueilously in a sacrament mysterie truly and in such a spirituall maner as wee cannot define determine and yet by faith we knowe his body present the parts of which be in themselues distinct one from an other in their owne substance but not by circumscription of seuerall places to be comprehended of vs. What Mr. did Gardiner follow in this Christs body is not locally present and yet hath distinction of parts Christs bodie hath distinction of parts and yet not by circumscription of severall places to be comprehended of vs. Thomas of Aquine denieth this The determinate distance of parts in a natural bodie P. 3. q. 76. art 3. ad 2. Distance of parts is in the true body of Christ but not in that bodie which is in the sacrament is in respect of the dimensiue quātitie such a distāce of parts saith he is in the true body of Christ but according to that distance of parts he is not in this sacrament but he is there according to the manner of his substance Here besides the disagreemēt of Thomas from Gardiner Thomas hath framed such a Christ as indeed is no Christ hee hath nether quantitie nor proportion of body nor distance of parts yet he confesseth that his true body in heauen hath so and if his bodie in the sacrament haue not so then ether he ouerthroweth the truth of Christ body or else it will Ineuitably follow without any qualifications ifs or ands that the true body of Christ is not in the sacrament Gardiner saith The body of Christ is there in no sensible maner as before Allē saith Corpus Christs est sensibiliter in sacrament● The body of Christ is sensibly in the sacrament Allen vt ante fol. 435.

De Euch. sac l. 1. c. 2 fol. 24. How can Bellarmine saie and saie trulie That the body of Christ hath his naturall maner of being in heauen but in the sacrament it hath not his naturall but sacramentall which we also say and yet that sacramentall maner to be expressed by the word substantially And againe to saie That whersoeuer the bodie of Christ is Ibid. l. 3. c. 7. f. 317. 320. there hee hath his forme humane shape scituation of parts order which he hath in heauen and that he is in the sacrament aswel as in heauen yet in the one to fill a place and haue distinction of parts And in the other to fil no place and yet haue his dimensions distinction of parts which is verie hard Ibid. l. 1. c. 2. fo 26. 27.

Bernard vseth it and opposeth it to carnaliter carnally speaking of the sacrament tamen non videtur hac vox multum frequentāda yet that word saith he seemeth not much to be vsed because there is danger in it Thus must Bellarmines conceipt be the modell whereto our faith must be framed He saith further That the counsel of Trent expressed the maner of Christs presence in the sacrament by the word Realiter really Really substantially vsed by the Trent Counte opposed against the tearmes vsed by the Calvinists opposing it against the counterfeit terme of Calvin who will haue him so present that he be apprehended by faith and so S. Bernard saith also in the same place Bellarmine quoteth vnto vs And that they vse the word substantialiter substātially against the Calvenists also who teach that the body of Christ according to the substance is only in heauen but I know not saith hee what vertue and power they deriue from thence to vs. Will they stande to this Strange it were they should sup vp their owne
