A17261 Truth and falshood, or, A comparison betweene the truth now taught in England, and the doctrine of the Romish church: with a briefe confutation of that popish doctrine. Hereunto is added an answere to such reasons as the popish recusants alledge, why they will not come to our churches.

that_o our_o saviour_n christ_n take_v for_o the_o institution_n of_o the_o sacrament_n and_o if_o he_o dare_v not_o say_v that_o so_o it_o must_v be_v always_o then_o must_v he_o give_v better_a

have_v show_v how_o our_o saviour_n christ_n take_v bread_n which_o i_o trust_v master_n bellarmine_n will_v there_o confess_v to_o be_v bread_n in_o deed_n and_o not_o other_o food_n why_o shall_v he_o then_o without_o proof_n or_o reason_n say_v here_o it_o be_v more_o general_o take_v to_o apply_v it_o perchance_o to_o the_o food_n of_o the_o soul_n yea_o this_o reply_n may_v serve_v for_o all_o the_o answer_n that_o he_o have_v to_o this_o argument_n because_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o he_o to_o say_v such_o a_o word_n may_v so_o be_v take_v sometime_o but_o he_o must_v prove_v that_o it_o must_v in_o this_o place_n so_o be_v take_v moreover_o if_o you_o consider_v of_o that_o which_o they_o call_v the_o form_n of_o bread_n it_o be_v no_o other_o in_o colour_n taste_n or_o

be_v in_o my_o mind_n absurd_a and_o blasphemous_a last_o we_o see_v by_o the_o practice_n that_o the_o godly_a have_v sometime_o use_v that_o the_o father_n in_o the_o primitive_a church_n think_v not_o the_o bread_n to_o be_v transubstantiate_v for_o if_o they_o have_v know_v of_o any_o transubstantiation_n they_o will_v not_o have_v burn_v that_o which_o remain_v of_o the_o eucharist_n as_o

not_o the_o accident_n but_o the_o substance_n of_o bread_n can_v work_v this_o nourishment_n and_o therefore_o if_o we_o take_v nature_n for_o substance_n it_o may_v well_o so_o be_v expound_v and_o

you_o see_v for_o he_o so_o call_v it_o therefore_o because_o he_o utter_v it_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o he_o mean_v not_o by_o that_o word_n nature_n the_o
