Description
Excerpt from Examinations and Martyrdom of Dr. Rowland Taylor: A. D. 1555
My second cause why I was condemned a heretic is, that I denied transubstantiation, by the which they do believe, and will compel all others to believe, that immediately after the words called the words of consecration,'' there is no more bread and wine in the sacrament, but the substance only of the body and blood of Christ together with his Godhead: so that the same being now Christ, both God and man, ought to be worshipped with godly honour, and to be offered to God, both for the quick and the dead, as a sacrifice propitiatory and satisfactory for the same. This matter was not long debated in words: but because I denied the'' foresaid Papistical doctrines, yea, rather plainly, most wicked idolatry, blasphemy, and heresy, I was judged a heretic.
I did also affirm the Pope to be Antichrist, and Popery Anti christianity; and I confessed the doctrine of the Bible to be a sufficient doctrine, touching all and singular matters of Christian religion and of salvation.
