They which knew that the Lamb is not the Pass-over, though Christ called it the Pass over; that Circumcision is not the Covenant, though God calleth it the Covenant; that Baptism is not Regeneration, though it be called Regeneration; that the ⟨p. 98⟩Cup is not the new Testament, though Christ called it the new Testament; could they not as well understand, that the bread & wine were not Christs body, though Christ called them his body? As they understood these speeches, so they understood this speech: therefore they which say, that the bread and wine are Christs body, because Christ saith,1 This is my body; may as well say, that the Lamb is the Pass-over, because Christ calleth it the Pass-over; that Baptism is Regeneration, because Paul calleth it Regeneration; that the Cup is the new Testament, because Christ calleth it the new Testament.
