True it is, The Ministration of the Holy Communion is oftentimes of the Old learned Fathers called a Sacrifice: not for that, they thought, the Priest had Authority, to Sacrifice the Son of God, but for that therein we offer up unto God, Thanks, and Praises for that great Sacrifice once made upon the Cross. So saith S. Augustine,1 In isto Sacrificio est gratiarum actio, & Commemoratio ⟨p. 563⟩Carnis Christi, 2quam pro nobis obtulit. In this Sacrifice is a Thanksgiving, and a Remembrance of the Flesh of Christ, which he hath offered for us. 3Likewise Eusebius saith, Christ after all other things done, made a marvellous Oblation, and a passing Sacrifice unto his Father (upon his Cross) for the Salvation of us all: giving unto us to offer continually unto God a Remembrance in stead of a Sacrifice. So Nazianzenus calleth the Holy Communion, A Figure of that great Mystery, of the Death of Christ.
