The fruit of this Sacrament is noted in these words, which is 1broken for you, which is shed for you, that is (as Matthew interpreteth) shed for the remission of sins. As all was made for us, so 2all which Christ spake, he spake for us, and all which Christ suffered, he suffered for us, that the sins of men might be forgiven, and yet so few apprehend this benefit, that the way to Heaven is called A narrow way, as though all these pains did 3ransom but a small number, and certain order of Men. All are not saved by Christs death, but all which are saved, are saved by Christs death: His death is sufficient to save all, as the Sun is sufficient to lighten all: but if any man wink, the Sun will not give him light: so if any man contemn, and will not receive Christ, he will not thrust him into Heaven, but every man will have that which he chooseth, (as David saith) Blessing to him 4that loveth blessing, and cursing to him that loveth cursing.
