Ergo, Christs Body was Really in sundry places, before it was borne in the world.
Ergo, Christes Bodie was Really in sundrie places, before it was borne in the worlde.
M. Harding might better have reasoned thus, & have concluded the contrary: Christ is not now Really, and Fleshly offered in the Earth: Ergo, Christs Body is not Really, and Fleshly present in many places.
M. Hardinge might better haue reasoned thus, & haue concluded the contrary: Christe is not now Really, and Fleashely offered in the Earthe: Ergo, Christes Bodie is not Really, and Fleashely present in many places.
But M. Harding saith, The Sacrifice of the Church is not Thanks giving: as our new Masters teach us. Certainly our Sacrifice is the very Body of Christ,1 and that for ever, according to the order of Melchizedek,2 evermore standing in Gods presence, and evermore obtaining pardon for us: not offered up by us, but offering us up unto God the Father. For the same, it is our part to offer unto God our Sacrifice of Praise, & Thanks giving. And this is the Doctrine, not only of them, whom it liketh M. Harding to call new Masters, but also of the Oldest, and most Catholic Doctors of the Church. And to allege one in stead of many,3 S. Augustine hereof writeth thus: In illis Carnalibus victimis, Figuratio fuit Carnis, quam Christus fuerat oblaturus. In isto autem Sacrificio est gratiarum actio, & Commemoratio Carnis, quam pro nobis oblit. In those Fleshly Sacrifices (of the Jews) there was a Figure of the Flesh, that Christ afterward would offer: but in this Sacrifice of the Church, there is Thanks giving, and a Remembrance of that Flesh, which Christ hath already offered for us. If M. Harding will happily refuse S. Augustine, as mistrusted for one of these new Masters, yet he may not well refuse his own Mass Book. There he himself even at his Mass is taught to say, Qui tibi offerimus hoc Sacrificium Laudis. We, that do offer up unto thee, this Sacrifice of Praise. Wherefore, onlesse M. Harding will leave his Mass, he him self must needs pass in the number of these New Masters.
