First we are said to eat Bread; then it is not Flesh, but Bread. Secondly, we are said to show the Lords Death; then it is but a show or representation of his death. Thirdly, it is said, until he come; if he be to come, then he is not come: If he be come, how can we say, until he come? The effect of this Verse was showed in these words, Do this in remembrance of me. For to say, Do this in remembrance of me, and to say, So oft as ye do this, you show my death, is much at one: So that if you call this Sacrament a show of Christs death, as it is called here, then it is not Christ; or if you call it a remembrance of Christ, as it is called there, yet is it not Christ, but a show or remembrance ⟨p. 30⟩of Christ; but this is such a show and remembrance, that the next verse saith, Whosoever receiveth it unworthily, is guilty 1of the body and blood of Christ.
