A Candid Inquiry into the Controversies among Evangelicals · §352

Annotatio I §.IV close IMPLICITE Lutheran: Replies (3)–(5) — part/whole, demonstration, Carlstadt; stop before §.V

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

(3.) Grant the Complex only for argument: then a part is predicated of the whole, and the proposition is tropical.

(4.) A demonstrative does not cancel the complex — therefore not the trope either.

(5.) Sense can only point to what senses reach: the sitting body (Carlstadt), the bread in Christ’s hands (Reformed sign-for-signified metonymy), or an invisible second body — which cannot be shown to sense, doubles Christ’s bodies, and drags back both the unproved Complex Luther rejected and a propriety hardly to be conceded.

Stop before §.V (Bucer / Lutheran tropus-limits).

Latin

(3.) Positô, non concessô Complexô, partem sic praedicari de toto, & propositionem tropicam fieri. (4.) Demonstrationem non tollere complexum, Ergo nec tropum. (5.) Demonstrationem tantum ad illud pertinere, quod demonstrari sensibus poterat; & hoc vel erat corpus Christi, mensae assidens: sic verò propositionem enasci Carlstadianam, vel panis, quem in manibus gestabat Christus: sic verò nostram obtenturam metonymiam signi pro signato; vel denique aliud invisibile corpus Christi: sed hoc primò non poterat sensui demonstrari, quia ex hypothesi invisibile est; dein duo corpora Christi inducit, aliud visibile, aliud invisibile, praeterquàm quòd tertiò alterutrum corpus unà cum pane acceptum, tam Complexum, nondum probatum, quin Luthero improbatum, quàm proprietatem, magno molimine impugnatam, aegreque concedendam, reducem facit.
