5. That it was not the Tree, is evident; for that could not Sanctify the Gift, to wit, his Body; but Christ affirmeth, That the Altar Sanctifieth the Gift: And by so saying, he affirmeth, That the Altar on which he Offered his Offering, was greater then the Offering it self, Mat. 23.19.
Now the Body of Christ was the Gift; for so he saith, I give my Flesh for the Life of the World, John 6.
But now, What thing is that which is greater then his Body, save the Altar, his Divinity, on which it was Offered? The Tree then was not the Altar which Sanctified this Gift, to make it of Virtue enough to make Reconciliation for Iniquity, John 6.51. Chap. 17.19. Heb. 9.14. Col. 1.19, 20, 21.
