¶ The confutation of the papists sacrificing and praying for the dead.
¶ The confutacion of the papystes sacrificing and praying for the dead.
First when they say, this applicatory sacrifice may be called a propitiatory sacrifice, because it applieth the propitiatory sacrifice, to whom the priest ⟨p. 128⟩will, be he dead or alive: as I would have you to note, how they grant, that of it self it is not a propitiatory sacrifice, whereby they vary from that, which they else where teach, that it is the self same sacrifice, which Christ offered on the cross, un bloodily: so I pray you forget not, that the priest is gods fellow: for he may apply it to whom he will.
FIrst whan they say, this applicatory sacrifice may be called a propiciatory sacrifice, beecause it applyeth the propiciatorye sacrifice, to whom the priest ⟨p. 128⟩wyll, bee he dead or alyue: as I woulde haue you to note, howe they graunt, that of it selfe it is not a propycyatorye sacryfyce, whereby they varye from that, which they els where teach, that it is the self same sacrifice, which Chryste offered on the crosse, vn bloudely: so I praye you forget not, that ye priest is gods felowe: for he may apply it to whom he wyll.
