Seite 295 - I profess, likewise, that in the Mass there is offered to God a true, proper, and propitiatory sacrifice for the living and the dead : and that in the most holy Sacrament of the Eucharist there is truly, really, and substantially the Body and Blood, together with the Soul and Divinity, of our Lord Jesus Christ...
Seite 301 - Not every deadly sin willingly committed after baptism is sin against the Holy Ghost, and unpardonable.

After we have received the Holy Ghost, we may depart from grace given, and fall into sin, and by the grace of Gcd we may arise again, and amend our lives.
Seite 305 - It is not lawful for any man to take upon him the office of public preaching, or ministering the Sacraments in the congregation, before he be lawfully called, and sent to execute the same.
