is takē away in the one parte or kinde the whole is contayned For ye knowe righte well that the body of Chryst which is geuē vnto the lay people vnder y e forme of bread is not wythout blood so y t as in or vnder y e name of Christe all three persons that is to saye y e father the sonne and the holy gost ar vnderstanded so vnder y e forme of bread is both the body bloud contayned What haue ye now to say agaīst this Prentyse I haue to say thys As for the aunswere that I haue broughte out of Ireneus I dooe not greatly leane vpon it For in y e place of the Actes of the Apostles to baptize in the name of Chryste is to baptize by hys commaundement and according to his wil and institution Wherby we mai rather cōclude and gather that the Apostles dyd obserue the fourme and maner y t Christe had prescribed Els thei had not baptized in the name of Christ if they had done otherwise than Christ had commaunded thē Farthermore it is not to be thoght that the Apostles which did with such a diligence and zeale set forth the true religion dyd caste of the fourme and maner of baptizinge y t Chryst had ordayned and prescribed vnto them Besides all this when y e schoolemen as we reade in Thomas de Aquino doe consent and agree that the fourme and maner of baptising hath been in some thing chaunged and altered by the Apostles they wryte that it was done for a tyme and that by the dispensinge of the holy goste and that therefore we ought not to mak of it a perpetual lawe For why It was done to thys ende saye they that the name of Chryst myght be the more spreade abrode But this ye dooe not obserue whē ye take away the mistical cup of the communiō from the people For as ye doe it without any dispensing of the holy gost so wyl ye haue your vngodlye and blasphemouse decree to contynewe for euer Agayne the Apostles did not condemne as heretykes those that would vse the prescribed fourme maner of baptising But ye do not only condemne al the laye people as heretikes that receaue vnder both kindes but ye doe also moste cruelly burne them And who would not besides al this deteste and abhorre thys doctryne which affirmeth that it lieth in mans power to inuert turne chaunge either the mater or words of the sacrament as ye haue done most shamfully not only takyng away the cup from the people but also the wordes that are spoken vpon it whych are most wholsome and do more playnely declare and set forth the mistery of our saluacion then the wordes that are spokē vpon the bread For of or vpon y e bread it is onely sayd Thys is my body which is deliuered for you but of or vpon the cup it is sayed this cup is the newe testamente in my blood which is shedde for you and for manye vnto remission of your synnes Weyghe nowe what Godly and comfortable doctryns are here contayned in these laste wordes whyche do appertaine vnto the cup. Priest Ye haue not yet proued but that vnder the forme of bread ther is both flesh blood cōteined onles ye wil haue a bodi w tout blod Wherfore ye doe most shamefully belie vs saying that we robbe the people For they receaue asmuch vnder the one kynde as they shoulde receaue vnder both Prentise This is soone said but not so soone proued master person for ye must vnderstande that the communion of the body and bloud of Chryste in the sacrament is not y e work of nature whatsoeuer is ther deliuered vnto vs as it is offered vnto vs by or in the wordes of Christes promises so is it receaued by faith And in this externe or outwarde things God doeth most chiefly and most principally require our obedience The signes and outwarde affictiō of the ceremonies are thinges trāsitory but the word of God remaineth for euer and therfore the sacramentes muste be ministred accordynge to the rule of it Againe we receaue so much there as God hath appointed to geue vnto vs of whose will we can not be certified but only by hys worde But Chryste hath ordayned ii partes of thys sacrament saying of the one This is my body and of y e other thys is my blood meaninge therby that in the bread being worthely receaued and accordynge to Christes institucion we are made partakers of his bodye and in the wine partakers of his bloode and hath left vnto vs expresse wordes for or touchyng these thyngs therfore we must rather trust to hym than to mans sophistications or subtyll argumentes I confesse and graunte that the body of Christ whiche is in heauen is not wythout blood I doubt not but that they are both ioyned together in him I meane this is my belefe that in Chrystes natural body there is both hys fleshe bloud ioyned together But howe shal ye proue that they are bothe ioyntly ioyned together in the sacrament The fayth of the communicātes doeth in the one part amplexe embrace and take holde vpon the body of Chryst as it was hanged and nayled on the crosse wherwith we are spiritually fed And the same fayth doeth in the other parte apprehende and take holde vpon hys bloud that was shedde for our saluation and therof we doe spiritually drynke The myndes of the faythfull doeth most chefeli runne vpō these misteryes of Christes death when they doe communicate Therefore we must not now reasō how christe body is in heauē We folow gods worde and see or perceaue that it is not necessary that those thīgs which are naturally ioyned together should be ioyntly receaued together The humayn and diuine nature are in the person of Chryst ioyntly ioyned together and can in no wyse be separated one from an other yet ye wil not say that whersoeuer the Godhead is there is y e manhode also for y t wer to make y e body of Chryste infynyte and vnmesurable whyche is contrary to the nature of an humayne body The sonne of God in that he is God is founde to be euery where and filleth al thinges whiche can not be truely sayed of hys bodye More ouer al spiritual gyftes are ioyntly ioyned together in the holigoste and yet it foloweth not that whosoeuer hath the gift of prophecying hath also y e gyfte of tōgs or whoso hath y e gifte of tōges hath also the gift of prophecying Seuerite and mercy are moste ioyntlye ioyned together in God and yet when any mā receaueth euerlastīg lyfe he feleth the mercy of God not hys extreme rigoure The same might I say of many other things which though they be in thēselfes most ioyntly ioyned together yet are they geuen separatly Pryeste Here is in dede diuinite vpon dyuinite But ye haue yet sayd nothynge to that which I obiected vnto you touchinge the order of baptysme
