A51288 A brief discourse of the real presence of the body and blood of Christ in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist wherein the witty artifices of the Bishop of Meaux and of Monsieur Maimbourg are obviated, whereby they would draw in the Protestants to imbrace the doctrine of transubstantiation.

the_o bishop_n of_o meaux_n his_o establish_n transubstantiation_n upon_o the_o literal_a sense_n of_o this_n be_v my_o body_n 2._o that_o according_a to_o the_o literal_a sense_n the_o bread_n that_o

why_o he_o follow_v the_o high_a road._n it_o be_v their_o part_n who_o have_v recourse_n to_o the_o figurative_a sense_n and_o who_o take_v by-path_n to_o give_v a_o reason_n for_o what_o they_o do_v

a_o presumption_n first_o accompany_v this_o venerable_a person_n in_o this_o high_a road_n of_o the_o literal_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n of_o institution_n this_o be_v my_o body_n and_o then_o

we_o produce_v the_o whole_a text_n and_o follow_v this_o kind_n of_o gloss_n luke_n 22._o 19_o and_o he_o take_v bread_n and_o give_v thanks_o and_o break_v it_o and_o give_v unto_o they_o say_v this_o be_v my_o body_n which_o be_v give_v for_o you_o this_o do_v in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o likewise_o also_o the_o cup_n after_o supper_n say_v this_o cup_n be_v the_o new_a testament_n in_o my_o

new_a testament_n in_o christ_n blood_n which_o be_v a_o thing_n unavoidable_a if_o we_o tie_v ourselves_o to_o the_o literal_a sense_n of_o the_o word_n but_o why_o be_v not_o the_o cup_n the_o

contradiction_n as_o if_o one_o shall_v say_v a_o bear_n be_v a_o horse_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v constrain_v to_o leave_v the_o literal_a sense_n and_o to_o recur_v to_o a_o figurative_a but_o precise_o to_o keep_v to_o the_o institution_n of_o that_o part_n of_o the_o sacrament_n that_o respect_v christ_n body_n it_o be_v plain_a that_o what_o he_o take_v he_o give_v thanks_o for_o what_o

the_o abovementioned_a bread_n be_v my_o body_n wherefore_o the_o literal_a sense_n must_v necessary_o be_v this_o bread_n as_o before_o it_o be_v this_o cup_n be_v my_o body_n insomuch_o that_o according_a to_o this_o literal_a sense_n it_o be_v both_o real_o bread_n still_o and_o real_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n at_o once_o which_o i_o believe_v there_o be_v no_o romanist_n but_o will_v be_v ashamed_a to_o admit_v but_o why_o can_v he_o admit_v this_o but_o that_o bread_n and_o the_o body_n of_o christ_n be_v opposita_fw-la and_o therefore_o the_o one_o can_v be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o other_o without_o a_o perfect_a repugnancy_n or_o contradiction_n to_o humane_a reason_n as_o absurd_a as_o if_o one_o shall_v say_v a_o bear_n be_v a_o horse_n or_o a_o rose_n a_o blackbird_n whence_o by_o the_o bye_n we_o may_v note_v the_o necessary_a use_n of_o reason_n in_o matter_n of_o religion_n and_o that_o what_o be_v a_o plain_a contradiction_n to_o humane_a reason_n such_o as_o a_o triangle_n be_v a_o circle_n or_o a_o cow_n a_o horse_n be_v not_o to_o be_v admit_v for_o article_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n and_o for_o this_o reason_n i_o suppose_v the_o church_n of_o rome_n fall_v into_o the_o opinion_n of_o transubstantiation_n from_o this_o literal_a way_n of_o expound_v these_o word_n this_n be_v my_o body_n rather_o than_o according_a to_o the_o genuine_a lead_n of_o that_o way_n they_o will_v admit_v that_o what_o christ_n give_v his_o disciple_n be_v both_o real_a bread_n and_o the_o real_a body_n of_o christ_n at_o once_o 3._o but_o see_v the_o infelicity_n of_o this_o doctrine_n of_o transubstantiation_n which_o do_v not_o only_o contradict_v the_o inviolable_a principle_n of_o reason_n in_o humane_a soul_n but_o also_o all_o the_o

fish_n or_o fowl_n bread_n or_o flesh._n nay_o i_o may_v add_v that_o these_o transubstantiator_n have_v fall_v over_o and_o above_o that_o contradiction_n to_o the_o right_o circumstantiated_a sense_n into_o that_o very_a absurdity_n that_o they_o seem_v so_o much_o to_o abhor_v from_o that_o be_v the_o confound_v two_o opposite_a species_n into_o one_o individual_a substance_n viz._n that_o one_o and_o the_o same_o individual_a substance_n shall_v be_v real_o both_o bread_n and_o christ_n body_n at_o once_o but_o by_o their_o transubstantiate_v the_o individual_a substance_n of_o the_o bread_n into_o the_o individual_a substance_n of_o christ_n body_n they_o run_v into_o this_o very_a repugnancy_n which_o they_o seem_v before_o so_o cautious_o to_o avoid_v two_o individual_a substance_n as_o species_n infimae_fw-la being_n opposita_fw-la and_o therefore_o uncapable_a of_o be_v say_v to_o be_v the_o same_o or_o to_o be_v pronounce_v one_o of_o the_o other_o without_o a_o contradiction_n it_o be_v impossible_a that_o the_o soul_n of_o socrates_n for_o example_n shall_v be_v so_o transubstantiate_v into_o the_o soul_n of_o plato_n that_o it_o shall_v become_v his_o soul_n insomuch_o that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o socrates_n his_o soul_n that_o it_o be_v the_o soul_n of_o plato_n and_o there_o be_v the_o same_o reason_n of_o transubstantiate_v the_o

the_o substance_n of_o his_o body_n which_o it_o must_v either_o be_v or_o be_v annihilate_v and_o then_o it_o be_v not_o the_o transubstantiation_n of_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o bread_n but_o the_o annihilation_n of_o it_o into_o the_o body_n of_o christ._n 4._o and_o have_v rid_v in_o this_o fair_a promise_a road_n of_o the_o literal_a sense_n but_o thus_o far_o i_o conceive_v i_o
mystery_n as_o pledge_n of_o his_o love_n and_o for_o a_o continual_a remembrance_n of_o his_o death_n and_o in_o the_o prayer_n of_o consecration_n the_o celebration_n of_o the_o eucharist_n be_v again_o say_v to_o be_v a_o continue_a or_o perpetuate_v commemoration_n of_o christ_n precious_a death_n till_o his_o come_n again_o but_o now_o for_o our_o receive_v the_o spiritual_a and_o divine_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n such_o passage_n as_o these_o seem_v to_o intimate_v it_o in_o the_o exhortation_n to_o the_o communicant_n it_o be_v there_o say_v if_o with_o a_o true_a penitent_a heart_n and_o lively_a faith_n we_o receive_v this_o holy_a sacrament_n than_o we_o spiritual_o eat_v the_o flesh_n of_o christ_n and_o drink_v his_o blood_n than_o we_o dwell_v in_o christ_n and_o christ_n in_o we_o we_o be_v one_o with_o christ_n and_o christ_n with_o we_o this_o passage_n plain_o point_v to_o our_o saviour_n discourse_n john_n 5._o v_o 56._o where_o he_o say_v he_o that_o

the_o most_o precious_a body_n and_o blood_n of_o thy_o son_n and_o our_o saviour_n jesus_n christ_n the_o word_n even_o of_o themselves_o do_v very_o natural_o point_v at_o a_o real_a though_o

therefore_o we_o may_v be_v much_o more_o assure_v that_o they_o do_v so_o if_o we_o take_v notice_n the_o sense_n be_v so_o back_v and_o strengthen_v by_o the_o other_o two_o passage_n which_o do_v
