If they ground their Transubstantiation upon these words of 1Christ This is my Body, which he spake to his Disciples, I ask them, whether they receive that body which was mortal, or that body which is glorified? because one of these bodies they must needs receive, either his mortal body, or his glorified body. If they say that it is his mortal body, the mortal body will 2not profit them: for you see that mortal food is but for this mortal life: neither hath Christ a mortal body now to communicate unto them, because it is changed to an immortal body; therefore they cannot receive the mortal body, because Christ hath not a mortal body to give unto them. If they say, that they receive his glorified body, then they must fly from this Text: for at that time Christ had not any glorified body.
