Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Charge Delivered to the Clergy of the Diocese of Chester, at the Visitation in June and September, 1841 Something beyond the ministration of the word is com mitted to the care of the pastors, when our Lord speaks of 'the keys of' heaven, ' viz. The ministration of the sacra ments. - Tract 35, p. 1. Compare with this view the passage Matthew xvi. 19, and compare with it also the view of our Church, which will not be suspected of nu dervaluing the sacraments; yet the language of the Rubric at the end of the Communion of the Sick is as follows But if a man, either by reason of extremity of sickness, &c. Do not 1eceive the sacrament of Christ's body and blood, the curate shall instruct him, that if he do truly repent him of his sins, and stedfastly believe that Jesus Christ hath suffered death upon the cross for him, and shed his blood for his redemption, earnestly re membering the benefits he hath thereby, and giving him hearty thanks therefore, he doth eat and drink the body and blood of our Saviour Christ profitably to his soul's health, although he doth not receive the sacrament with his mout - Professor Scholeficld's Five Sermons, p. 119, Note 32.
