her purchase to thy self greate gilte of synne / for that the gaye glosse of the ceremonies or ony worthines of the ministers shall not helpe the at all. Euen Ieroboam himself wold haue beene counted to haue sacrificed to the Godd of Israel: but yet bicause he did not sacrifice after the same manier which God had commaunded / but rather after that sorte which he himself hadd inuented amd instituted / godd did not accept his sacrifices / and thos did synne against godd and against true religion / yea and against the lawfull Sacrifices of godd / as many as did communicate with the sacrifices of Ieroboam. For both that Ieroboam synned / and that he did leade Israel to synne / the scripture doth repeate very ofte / to beate in to the heade of the whole worlde / that simple obedience doth pleas the lorde / in which we keape his ordinaunces after that manier only which he hath instituted / addynge nothinge / dyminishing nothing / and chaunging nothing in them. I will not now reason how that the Masse doth agre nothing at all with the lordes supper / for this is euen to the eyes of all men often tymes shewed in many bookes of most lerned and godly seruantes of Godd. Yea euen children which are but instructed in the principles of faith / do know that Christe did institute a comon partaking / ore communion / in which all the faithfull which are one bodie in Christe are knitt together into one bodie / and that the Masse is a dissipacion of vnitie and a priuate deuowring of one lurching sacrificer. They knowe that Christ commaunded: Take / eate / diuide it amonge you / and drincke ye all of this. And that the Masse doth sett furth theis thinges to be gazed vppon / to be worshipped / to be caried about / and to be shutt vpp / to be handeled and also receyued of preistes only: They know that Christe sayd: Do this in the rememberaunce of me. And that the priestes do saye Masse in the rememberaunce of sayntes / that they do sacrifice for the synnes of the quicke and the deade / and to be short that they do say masse for euery thinge / for filthie lucres sake. Ther were in the tyme of the Apostles certayn witty disputars which reasoned that it was lawful for Christians to eate meates offered vnto Idols. Meates offered to Idolls / were sacrifices vsed in the temples of Idolls / to be offered vnto Idols. Therfor thos faithfull men did contend / that it was lauful indifferently to communicate with the holy seruice of the Christ
