VVho are the fellow helpers, or administers, or seruice able causes of the Supper of the Lord?
Only the ministers of the word lawfully called, to whom the keyes of the Church are giuen, whiles that, they do rightly exe∣cute their office in the administration & dispensation of the word & of the holy Supper: for no man taketh this honour vnto himsef,* 1.1but he that is called of God, as was Aaron. Heb. 5.4. But the son of God who is present at hand with his Church, not with a bodily pre∣sence, but yet with a spiritual & wholsom presēce for vs, as being the master of the feast, doth so celebrate the same by the meanes of his ministers, that he alone doth as truly exhibite vnto vs, bread and drink of life, that is to say, himselfe, to be enioyed by faith, as he doth euidently exhibit vnto vs by the hand of his seruants the signes therof, that is to say, bread to be chewed in the mouth, and wine to be drunk, Ioh, 6.51. the bread that I will giue, is my flesh, which I will giue for the life of the world.
