Last of all, believe (as ye say) that this very Flesh shall return to Life, and that for the Spirit of Christ, which dwelleth in us. There is no doubt but the Spirit of Christ is sufficient to raise up their bodies, in whom it dwelleth. But we say, that the raising of our Flesh is also assigned in Holy Scripture* to the Real, and Substantial eating of Christs Flesh, because it is written: He that eateth my Flesh, and drinketh my Blood, hath Life Everlasting. And I will raise him again in the last day. Therefore the Resurrection of the Flesh is not only assigned in Holy Scripture to the Spirit of Christ, but also to the worthy eating of his Flesh. And thus we have confuted the Doctrine, wherein ye declare your Faith: and the chief grounds, whereon ye build your New Gospel, we have disproved.
Last of al, beleue (as ye saie) that this very Fleashe shal returne to Life, and that for the Spirite of Christe, whiche dwelleth in vs. There is no doubte but the Spirite of Christe is sufficient to raise vp their bodies, in whom it dwelleth. But wee saie, that the raising of our Fleashe is also assigned in Holy Scripture* to the Real, and Substantial eatinge of Christes Fleashe, because it is written: He that eateth my Fleashe, and drinketh my Bloude, hathe Life Euerlastinge. And I wil raise him againe in the laste daie. Therefore the Resurrection of the Fleashe is not onely assigned in Holy Scripture to the Spirite of Christe, but also to the woorthy eatinge of his Fleashe. And thus we haue confuted the Doctrine, wherein ye declare your Faithe: and the chiefe groundes, whereon ye buylde your New Gospel, we haue disproued.
