That the Romish manser of the Corporall Presence
of Christ, in the Sacrament, is mani∣foldly
Impossible. [ 30]
SECT. I.
NO sooner do you heare Protestants talke of the Im∣possibility* 1.1
of your maner of Presence, which your
Church prescribeth, but you presently cry out
upon them, as upon Blasphemous Detractors from
the Omnipotencie of God; as if they meantx 1.2To
tie God to the rules of Nature, as your Authors are pleased to sug∣gest. [ 40]
We hold it necessary therefore to remove this Scandall,
thus cast in the way for simple people to stumble upon, before
we can conveniently proceed to the maine matter; and this wee
shall endeavour to do by certaine Propositions.
