The Catholic Church, and its teachings tc
Justify their rebellion as for example,
l. Agoiast the holy sacrifice of the ~
ter, S. Matthew 20, 20, "Jesus took bread
and blessed and break and gave to his dis
lciples.' In Protestant Eng Bible printed ii
| 562, 1917 and 1878, INSTEAD of ''blessed'
they translate sand when he gave thanks
The turning of blessings" into share
Thanks" was enc If the first steps Of the
pretended reformers towards denying the
real presence. In the latter Protestant
editions il is corrected; so also in passage
of s. Mark IA, %; in jeremiah IL, 10;
For 'let us cast wood upon his bread -
Protes.ants corrupt "we will destroy his
meat with wood" In Bible of American
Tract Society,"" Let us destroy the tree with
the fruit thereof" BY such TRANSACTIONS
they cannot make any .commodious sense
OF understanding out of it; again Genesis
Ia, Is, "And Melchizedeck, King OF Sa
lem brought forth bread and wine" tc,
''he was the priest Of God most high
Instead of ''For" he was the priest '.lhey
translate" and she was the priest same
in American Bibles. If Proteslants sho'd
grant Melcliizedeck's typical sacrifice of
bread and wine, then would follow also
a sacrifice of the New Testament; to avoid
this they purposelv translate "and' in this
place when in other places the same He
brew participle Vav they translate ''for,"
not being ignorant that it is in those as in
this place better expressed "For" or BE
cause"
2. "Against tie real presence Cor
NTH. 1, 81, Therefore whosoever shall
eat this bread" or "drink the cbalice of
our Lord unworthily." In this place they
very falsely translate "and" irstead OF
'sor," contrary both to the Greek and Lat
in, on purpose to infer necessity of CON-
municatIng under both kinds as the con-
iunctive SAND" may seem to do, whereas
hy the distinctive ''or" it is evident that
we may communicate in one kind only as
was in divers cases the practice of the
primitive cherch, as also of the Apostles
themselves. Acts ll-42 and 2O-7.
I'D. Against Priests and Priesthood
Acts 1872. They appointed that Paul
and Barnabas should go up and certain
Others of the rest to the Apostles and
priests unto Jerusalem" Instead o
:" Priests" they translate Elders" Prot
iestants on purpose to abolish holy sacri-
flee of the mass not only took away the
word altar out of the Scripture but also
suppressed the name Priest in all their
translations turning it into Elder, knowing
well that Priest, sacrifice and altar are
consequents and dependents one of anoth-
err Same corruption is also IN Titus Is,
LIST Tim. SIT, lst Tim. 5-l9, st. James
5-l4, Acts l4-22.
4th. against the authority Of Priests--
Malachi III, I. "The Priests lips shall
keep knowledge aid they shall seek
the law at his mouth, because he is the
angel of the Lord of hosts" For "shalI"
they translate should" and for "anger"
they translate "messenger." The prelen-
ded ref rmers here corrupt the Bible be-
cause they wish 10 derogate from the priv
ilrge and dignity of Priests and when
Prophets add the cause of the prerogatlve
of Prizes because he is the sangeF' Of,
the Lord Of hosts they ag in corrupt it
to messenger" Again in Apochrypha
II, 81, s, IL, they have done the same,
but it is here corrected in later editions.
Again in Malachi 3, and in Matt. 18th,
lo-Luke Z, 27-and in I'd Cor. 2, 10,
IF pardoned anything for you in the
person of Christ" they translate Iii the
sight of Christ, but it is corrected iu ia
ter editions.
5th against the single Ices Of Priests.
Cor. 9, 5-"Have we not power to lead
about woman sister?" DC.
They falsely corrupt this text of St.
Paul they try to make him say, that be
and the rest of the Apostles, sled their
wives about with them, because instead
"woman" they translate "vJe." Again,
Phillip 4, 8, ''Yea beseech thee my sin
cere companion" they say "yokefellow"
on purpose to make 1t sound in English
man and wife," With regard to LIST St.
Paul Cor. Z, says he had no wife, and
Calvin and Beza in I'd passage translate
it in the masculine gender for ''compan-
ion." Apostle means nothing else but a
woman, sister like the christian women
who followed Christ and Apostles to find
and maintain them. Again, st. Matt. O.
II, Not all take this word they trans
late sail men cannot ecsive this saying"
as though it were impossible to live CONT
Irent. Again, Hebrew l3-4, Marriage
honorable in all" they translate Marriage
is honorable among all men," For the
marriage of Priests and all sorts of men
lindifferently they corrupt this text twice
..anong all men, and add s'is,' whereas
the Apostles words are Marriage honora-
lble in all and the bed undefiled."
! 9th. against sacrament Of penance--
Isl. James sic, confess therefore your
sins one to another"-they corrupt it
thus, acknowledge your faults one to
another" in the later edition Confess
1 your faults.'" To avoid word "confess-
Ion" especially in this place whence read
ler might easily gather sacranental confess
ion they thus falsify the text. IL is said
little before ''if any be sick, let him bring
