The Fourth Argument.
We may no more believe Bread to be Transubstantiate into the Body of Christ, than the Wine into his Blood.
But the Wine is not Transubstantiate into his Blood:
Ergo, Neither is that Bread therefore Transubstantiate into his Body.
The first part of this Argument is manifest, and the second part is proved out of the Authority of God's Word in Matthew and Mark, I will not drink of the fruit of the Vine, &c. Now the fruit of the Vine was Wine which Christ drank, and gave to his Disciples to drink. With this Sentence agreeth plainly the place of Chrysostom on the 20th Chapter of Matthew, as Cyprian doth also, affirming, That there is no Blood, if Wine be not in the Cup.
