Irenaeus received the same from S. John the Evangelist, by Polycarpus S. Johns scholar. He declareth it with these words:1 Eum, qui ex creatura Panis est, accepit, & gratias egit, dicens, Hoc est Corpus meum. Ft Calicem similiter, qui est ex creatura quae est secundum nos, suum Sanguinem confessus est, & Nou• Testamenti novam docuit Oblationem, quam Ecclesia ab Apostolis accipiens, in universo mundo offer• Deo. De quo in duodecim Prophetis Malachi sic praesignificavit, 2Non est mihi voluntas in vobis, dicit Dominus exercituū: & munus non suscipiam de manu vestra. He took that, which by creation is bread, and gave thanks, saying, This is my Body And likewise the Cup full of that Creature, which is here with us, and confessed it to be his Blood, and thus taught the new Oblation of the New Testament, which the Church receiving of the Apostles, doth offer to God through the whole world, whereof Malachi one of the twelve Prophets did prophesy thus: I have no li•inge in you, saith our Lord almighty, neither will I take Sacrifice of your hands: because from ⟨p. 569⟩the rising of the sun, to the going down of the same, my name is glorified among the Nations, and Incense is offered to my name in every place, and pure Sacrifice, for that my name is great among the Nations. What can be understanded by this new Oblation of the New Testament other, then the Oblation of that, which he said to be his Body, and confessed to be his Blood? And if he had offered Bread and Wine only, or the Figure of his Body, and Blood in Bread and Wine, it had been no New Oblation, for such had been made by Melchizedek long before. Neither can the Prophecy of Malachi be understanded of the Oblation of Christ upon the Cross, for as much as that was done but at one time only, and in one certain place of the world, in Golgotha, a place without the gates of Jerusalem, near to the walls of that City. Concerning the Sacrifice of a contrite, and an humbled heart, and all other Sacrifices of our devotion, that be mere Spiritual, they can not be called the New Oblation of the New Testament, for as much as they were done as well in the Old Testament, as in the New, neither be they altogether pure.
