Reader, Tertullian calls it The body of Christ, and so do we. Will you hear him speaking his own Sense, which this Man concealeth?
Cont. Marcion, l. 3. c. 19. [Sic enim Deus in Evangelio quoque vestro revelavit, panem corpus suum appellans, ut & hinc jam eum intelligas corporis sui figuram pani dedisse, cujus retro corpus in panem Prophets figuravit, ipso Domino hic sacramentum postea interpretaturo.] That is [For so God even in your Gospel revealed, calling bread his body, that so hence you may understand, that he gave to bread the figure of his body; whose body the Prophet formerly figured into bread, the Lord himself being afterward to interpret this Sacrament.] Here it is oft called bread, and this bread is called Christ's body, and the figure of the body given to bread it self, as was prefigured by the Prophets before Christ had a body.

And Cont. Marc. l. 1. 14. [Nec panem (reprobavit) ⟨p. 55⟩quo ipsum corpus suum representat,] [He reprobated not bread, by which he represented his own very body.] Pamelius hath no shift, but to say, that by representing he meaneth making present, such deceit will seem to prove to them Universal Tradition: And he citeth many other places, as for him, out of Tertullian, which have no more but his naming the Sacrament Christ's body and blood, as we all do.
