The Apologie, Cap. 14. Diuision. 1.
And in speakinge thus, wee meane not to abase the Lordes Sup∣per, or to teache, that it is but a colde Ceremonie onely, & nothinge to be wrought therin: (as many falsely sclaunder vs, we teache) For we affirme, that Christe dooth truely, & presently geeue him self wholy in his Sacramentes: In Baptisme, that we maie put him on: & in his Supper, that wee maie Eate him by Faithe, & Sprite, & maie haue Euerlastinge Life by his Crosse & Bloude. And wee saie not, this is donne sleightly & coldely, but effectually & truely. For although wee doo not touche the Body of Christe with teethe, and mouthe, yet wee holde him faste, and eate him by Faithe, by Vnderstandinge, and by Sprite. And it is no vaine Faithe, that comprehendeth Christe: nei∣ther is it receiued with colde deuotion, that is receiued with Vnder∣standinge, Faithe, & Sprite. For Christe him selfe altogeather is so offered, and geeuen vs in these Mysteries, that wee maie certainely knowe wee be Fleashe of his Fleashe, and Bone of his Bones: and that Christe continueth in vs, and wee in him.
