None of our part thinke that Christ leaueth heauen, to come downe really according to his bodie and bloud, Act. 3.21. Do∣nec seculum finiatur, 〈◊〉〈◊〉 est Dominus (Augustine in Ioh. tract. [ E] 7.) vntill the world be finished, the Lord continues aboue. And the Fathers tearme the holy Eucharist, an vnbloudie sacrifice, not because Christ is properly, and in his substance offred there∣in, but because his bloudie sacrifice vpon the crosse, is, by this vnbloudie commemoration represented, called to remem∣brance,

Cyprian. Ep. 63. Quotiescun∣què ergo Calicem in commemorati∣onem Domini, & passionis eius offerrimus. Aug. c. Faust. lib. 20. cap. 18. Christiani peracti huius sacrificij memoriam cele∣brant, sacrosancta oblatione, & participatione corporis & sanguinis Domini, Ep. 23. ad Bonifac. Nonnè semel immolatus est Christus in semetipso? & tamen in Sacramento non tantum per omnes Paschae so∣lennitates, sed etiàm omni die, populis immolatur, nec vtiquè mentitur, qui interrogatus, eum responde∣ret immolari: si enim Sacramenta quandam similitudinem earum rerum quarum Sacramentasunt, non haberent omnino Sacramenta non essent. contr. Faust. lib. 20. cap. 21. Huius sacrificij caro & sanguis, antè aduentum Christi per victimas similitudinum promittebatur, in passione Christi per ipsam veritatem reddebatur, post ascensum Christi per Sacramentum memoriae celebratur. Quest. 83. cap. 61. Christus qui semetipsum obtulit holocaustum pro peccatis nostris, huius sacrificij similitudinem, & holocausti eius ima∣ginem in passionis suae memoriam celebrandam dedit, & commendauit. In lib. Sent. prosper. Sicut coelestis [ B] panis, qui verè Christi caro est, suo modo vocatur corpus Christi, cum reuera sit Sacramentum corporis Christi, illius videlicet, quod visibile, palpabile, mortale, in cruce suspensum est, vocaturquè ipsa immolatio carnis quae Sacerdotis manibus fit, Christi passio, mors, crucifixio, non rei veritate sed significante mysterio. Chrys. in Heb. 10. Hom. Quid ergo nos, nonnè per singulos dies offerrimus, &c. offerrimus quidem sed re∣cordationem facientes mortis eius, &c. Hoc quod facimus in commemorationem fit eius quod factum est. Hocenim facite inquit in mei commemorationem. Non aliud Sacrificium sicut Pontifex sed id ipsum sem∣per facimus, magis autem recordationem Sacrificij operamur. Theoderet. in cap. 8. Hebr. Cur noui Testa∣menci Sacerdotes my sticam Liturgiam seu Sacrificium peragunt, Cum Christus qui est Sacerdos secun∣dum ordinem Melchisedech, offerens Sacrificium, efficit vt alia Sacrificia non essent necessaria? Resp. cla∣rum est ijs qui sunt eruditi in rebus diuinis, nos non aliud offerre, sed illius vnius & salutaris memoriam peragere. Hocenim nobis praecipit ipse Dominus, hoc facite in meam recordationem: vt per figurarum con∣templationem, earum quae pro nobis susceptae sunt perpessionum recordaremur, & in benefactorem bene∣uolentiam conseruemus, & futurorum beneficiorum perceptionem expectemus. Theophilact. in Heb. 10. Ip∣sum quidem semper offerrimus, imo vero potius memoriam illius oblationis facimus, qua seipse obtulit.
Lombard. Sent. lib. 4. Dist. 12. Quaeritur si quod gerit Sacerdos propriè dicatur Sacrificium, vel immo∣latio, & si Christus quotidiè immoletur, vel semel tantum imniolatus sit? ad hoc breuitèr dici potest, Il∣lud quod offertur & consecratur à Sacerdote, vocari Sacrificium & oblationem, quià memoria est, & re∣presentatio veri Sacrificij, & sanctae immolationis factae in ara crucis. Idem. Semel Christus mortuus est in cruce, ibiquè immolatus est in semetipso. Quotidiè autem immolaturin Sacramento, quià in Sacramento recordatio fit illius, quod factum est semel.
Enchir. Coloniens. d. Euchar. Patres non dubitarunt hoc Christi corpus in altari, Sacrificium & salutarem victimam appellare, non ratione Sacrificij, quod est situm in actione Sacerdotis, &c. sed ratione Sacrificij quod in cruce oblatum est semel.
