A reply unto M. Hardinges answerA replie vnto M. Hardinges ansvveare

This allegation argueth no great abundance of s•oare. For Chrysostom in ⟨p. 575⟩these words both openeth him self, & showeth, in what sense other Ancient Fathers used this word, Sacrifice, and also utterly overthroweth M. Hardinges whole purpose touching the same. For, as he saith, We offer up the same Sacrifice, that Christ offered, so in most plain wise, and by sundry words, he removeth all doubt, and declareth, in what sort, and meaning we offer it. He saith not, as M. Harding saith, We offer up the Son of God unto his Father, and that verily, and in deed: ¹but contrariwise thus he saith, Offerimus quidem, sed ad Recordationem facien•es Mortis eius. Hoc Sacrificium Exemplar illius est. Hoc, quod nos facimus, in Commemorationem •it eius, quod factum est. Idipsum semper offerimus: Magis autem Recordationem Sacrificij operamur: We offer in deed: but in Remembrance of his Death. This Sacrifice is an Example of that Sacrifice. This, that we do, is done in Remembrance of that, that was done. We offer up the same, that Christ offered: Or, rather we work the Remembrance of that Sacrifice. Thus we offer up Christ, That is to say, an Example, a Commemoration, a Remembrance of the Death of Christ. This kind of Sacrifice was never denied: but M. Hardinges Real Sacrifice was yet never proved.²
