VIII. To the worthy receiuing of the sacraments, there is need of vnderstanding and faith.

And thereby also we know, that the sacra∣ments to the worthie receiuing of them, doe require an action and attention of the minde & a faith in vs: whereby wee vnderstand what is signified and offered to vs by them, and ap∣prehend it with a minde setled in faith: euen as Christ teacheth, where he saieth of his sup∣per: doe this in remembrance of me, And the A∣postles waighing and cōsidering these words of Christ doth largely expoūd them. To which purpose is also that, Lift vp your hearts. For there be set before vs matters most reuerend, heauenly, and diuine, to be vnderstood in the minde, and receiued by faith.
