TR AN*SU BST&NTIATION', [Boor II. thus the body oF Christ. which is received by the FaithFul, doth not depwrt from its sensible substance, and yet remaineth undivided from intelligible grace: and baptism being wholly made spiritual, and re- maining one, doth beth retain the property of the sensible 8ubstmtce, (of water, ! mean,) saves, and yet loseth not that which is made. "�0.) Macarius*s words are plain enough: "In the church is o?ered bread and wine, the ANTITYPE 0?' his flesh and blood; and they that partake of the flesh that appears do spiritually eat the flesh of Christ."? (11 .) Augustine plainly teaches contrary to the doctrine in question: "If a passage forbid something flagitious, or command something g?d, it is not figurative. But if it seem either to command something tious, or to forbid something good, then such passage is Thus, for example, Christ says, U'r?ess ye ea?, &c. In thes? words he apparently commands something horrible and flagitious. Therefore, according to the rule I have laid down, the passage is a figure. Hence it must only be interpreted as enjoining us to communicate in the pas- sion of our Lord, and as admonishing us to lay it up sweetly* and use- fully in our memory, because for us his flesh was crucified and wound- ed.'*? Augustine brings in our $aviour speaking of this matter as lows: "Christ admitted Judas to that banquet, in which he commended and delivered unto his disciples the figure of his body and blood."? Again: "The Lord did not doubt to say, TA/.?/.? my body, when he gave the sxos of his 5ody."11 "You are not about to eat this bo? which you see, nor to drink that blood which they shall shed who shall crucify me. I have recommended to you a certain sacrament, which, if spiritually understood, shall quicken you.'*�12.) Prom CyTil of Jerusalem we select the following: "With all as- surance let us partake as of the body and blood of Christ. For under the TYPE Of bread, his body is ?iven unto thee; and under the TYPE O?' wine, his blood is given unto thee: that so thou mayeat partake oi ? the bedy and blood of Christ, being one body and one blood with him. "*? (t3.) Jerome informs us that Christ "did not o?er water, but wine, as a TYPE of his blood."f? (14.) Gregury Nazianzen speaks as expressly on this subject as if he had undertaken to conlute the doctrine of Trent: "Now we shall be partakers of the paschal supper, but still in a figure, though more clear than in the old law.
