   • 1844, Thomas Becon, Prayers and other pieces of Thomas Becon‎, Cambridge University Press, page 126:

     For Christ hath offered himself a sweet-smelling sacrifice unto God the Father for my sins, yea, and that so perfect, absolute, consummate, and in all points so omnisufficient, that there can be found no imperfection in it. Christ hath borne away all my sins on his body.

   • 1855, Aubrey Townsend, The Writings of John Bradford‎, pages 33-34:

     And I assure you, as I will answer at the tribunal throne of God’s majesty, we could find in the testament of Christ’s body and blood no other presence but a spiritual presence, nor that the mass was any sacrifice for sins: but in that heavenly book it appeared that the sacrifice, which Christ Jesus our Redeemer did upon the cross, was perfect, holy and good; that God the heavenly Father did require none other, nor that never again to be done, but was pacified with that only omnisufficient and most painful sacrifice of that sweet slain Lamb, Christ our Lord, for our sins.

   • 1882, Frederick James Furnivall, Phillip Stubbes, Hugh Latimer: A Biography‎, Ruth Wallace Hawkins, page 423:

     These main points of the mass, he repeated, he had never discovered in Scripture: he had read the New Testament over seven times with great deliberation ; he had studied it with men of such eminent learning as Cranmer, Bidley, and Bradford, when they were together in the Tower, and they could find no other presence of Christ's body and blood in the New Testament than a spiritual presence ; nor did Scripture say that the mass was a sacrifice for sins, but rather that the sacrifice "which Christ did on the cross was perfect, holy, and good ; that God did require none other ; nor that never again to be done, but was pacified with that only omnisufficient and most painful sacrifice of that sweet slain Lamb for our sins."
