¶ An other argument.

* 1.1The outward Priesthood doth require an outward Sa∣crifice.

Christ did institute an outward Priesthood in the newe Testament.

Ergo, Christ did institute a new Sacrifice in the new Te∣stament.

* 1.2In deéd the Church is inuested with her Priesthood and her Sacrifice in the new Testament, aswell as it was in the old Te∣stament. But we do say that all that Priesthood, together with the Sacrifice that is offered for sinnes, is altogether resiaunt and accomplished in our one and onely Christ, the sonne of the liuing God. Whereupon we do acknowledge one onely Priest, and one onely oblation,* 1.3 not Priestes and Apostles, nor the A∣postles Successours, but Christ, and him onely our chiefe and high Preist. And this high Priest of ours did institute a Mini∣stery in his Church, but not a Priesthood: I doe meane such a Priesthood, which doth necessarily require a satisfactory Sacri¦fice, as it was in the olde Lawe. For this onlye Bushoppe ha∣uing abolished the olde priestehoodd, and abandoned the olde Sacrifices doth reigne an euerlasting Priest, and gaue himselfe a Sacrifice once, and euen one Sacrifice for all:* 1.4 so that frō hence∣forth is no neéd at all of any Priest or satisfactory Sacrifice for sinnes for euer. In the meane space (as I sayd before) he left be∣hind him a Ministery established in his Church: not such a Mi∣nistery as should offer vpp any more Sacrifice for the redemp∣tion of sinnes: but such a one, as should onely apply ye preaching of ye word, & the due administratiō of the Sacraments, namely, Baptisme & the celebrating of the Lordes supper.* 1.5 So yt the ve∣ry Action and Ministery of the Minister doth auayle nothing to the deuiding of Christes Merites abroad through merite me∣ritorious: but that euery man may apply himselfe, and become capable of those Merites of Christ, by the force of his owne pro∣per fayth. And this Application or vse of the Lordes supper is called a Memoriall of the passion of Christ: as the which doth

depend not vpon the merite of him that worketh, nor vpon me∣rite meritorious, but vpon the faythfull receiuing of the godly by fayth onely.
