Annotatio II §.IV close: Carlstadt fades; Upper/Lower Germany split; corporeal presence+ubiquity vs spiritual session — stop before §.V
Carlstadt's middle reading — fabulous, and dragging in a little story forged outside Scripture, not unlike the Socinian fable stitched onto John 1:3 "And the word was with God" (by which Socinians hostile to Christ's deity press their case) — found very few backers and soon vanished.
The other two remained, taught with all the more heat — one in upper Germany, the other in Lower — the more they first seemed to clash.
The one: a corporeal or local presence of Christ's body in the bread. The other: at first glance seeming to admit no presence at all, not even a spiritual one.
The former called in aid the ubiquity of Christ's body, unheard of in past ages; the latter, that body's session at God's right hand in the heavens into which it had ascended.
Latin
Media seu Carolostadii interpretatio, ceu Fabulosa & Historiolam quandam, extra Scripturam confictam, haud absimilem Fabulae socinianae, verbis Joh. 1. v. 3. Et verbum erat apud Deum, assuta (quâ Deitati Christi infesti imminent Sociniani) in medium adducens, adstipulatores invenit paucissimos, & paulò post evanuit, residuis duabus, alterâ in superiori Germania, in Inferiori alterâ, tantò majori cum animi contentione edoctis, quantò sibi initiò videbantur invicem obnitentes magis. Illa Corporalem Localemve in pane Corporis Christi praesentiam; Haec verò nullam omnino, & ne Spiritualem quidem praesentiam admittere primô intuitu visa. Illa in subsidium corporis Christi Ubiquitatem, praeteritis inauditam Seculis; Haec ejusdem Corporis ad dextram Dei in coelis Sessionem, in qua ascenderat, assumens.
