1. For the first part, Whether there be true Bread and Wine after Consecration, as many others have fully proved the affirmative, so particularly the foresaid Author briefly hath proved it past all rational denial. 1. From the Senses of all Mankind; an Argument fortified by twenty subordinate convincing Arguments against the deniers of Sense; where the Papists Answers are refuted. 2. He hath proved the Contradictions of the Doctrine of ⟨p. 5⟩Transubstantiation. 3. He hath showed that the Doctrine of Transubstantiation asserteth one and thirty Miracles, with twenty miraculous aggravations; and hath fully proved from Scripture that these Miracles are fictitious. 4. He hath proved from many express Texts of Scripture, that it is Bread after the Consecration. 5. And also that the Scripture it self doth fully teach us to expound This is my Body, as we do, and not as the Papists do. 6. He proveth that the very nature of a Sacrament, even as Aquinas defineth it, is inconsistent with Transubstantiation. 7. And Lastly, he proveth the Novelty of your Doctrine, and that the ancient Writers were against it; which Albertinus, Pet. Molinaeus de Novil. Papismi, the late Morning Lectures of the Nonconformists against Popery, and many others have proved at large. But these things our Discourser Rationally dissembleth, lest if he should answer them it would appear to be no Rational Discourse. But let us hear what the Rationality is which he pretendeth to.
