2 Whereas they teach the bodily presence of Christ, it must needs be that they also worship Christ in the bread, whom they suppose to be bodily present in, under, with, and to the bread; which is a thing no less idolatrous, then if they worshipped the bread. For wheresoever Christ is, whether in a visible or invisible manner, there he is to be worshipped.

4 They of force admit the mangling or abridging one part of the Sacrament. For they retain the foundation, on which the Papists build this error. For whereas they hold a corporal presence of Christ in, with, under or to the bread, they must necessarily either withhold the cup from the Communicants, because, in their doctrine and opinion, the blood of CHRIST is in his body: or else they must separate CHRISTS blood from his body; then which nothing can be more absurd.
