Annotatio IV §.XXIII: Wren’s Jude 19 elenchus — psychikoi without spirit; they ban spiritual presence, chase only psychic ratio
Wren turns their dream-fight into Jude 19’s elenchus: they are the separators — psychikoi without the spirit — now more than anyone.
Immersed in matter alone, they execrate every spiritual presence of the Lord’s body, chase only a natural/psychic sacrament-ratio, and either banish the spiritual-divine ratio of the sacrament or exclude themselves (and hope to drive us) from divine participation — Gentile-style, believing only natural twilight.
Latin
Atque hæc jam illa pugna est, quam clamitant, è cujus sibi per somnium fictione, verè sese protrudunt in Elenchum illum Apostoli (ad neminem unquam magis, quam ad ipsos nunc pertinentem,) etoi eisin hoi apodiorizontes, psychikoi, pneuma mē echontes, Judæ vers. 19. Spiritualem enim omnem corporis Dominici præsentiam cùm ipsi execrentur, & materiæ soli miserè immersi, ultra sensum nihil sapiant, nullamque nisi naturalem, atque psychikēn rationem in sacramento sectentur, fortiter sese jam apodiorizontas præstant, sive illud de Rebus interpretandum sit, Potiorem enim Sacramenti rationem, & quæ Spiritualis veréque Divina est, prorsus exulare jubent; sive de Personis, & tum vel semetipsos excludunt (& à Latino quidem Vulgari, Nostrisque sic redditur:) Ethnicorum planè more, non plùs credentes, quàm ex naturali lumine, seu potiùs crepusculo, assequi possunt; vel saltem, posse se Nos exterminare à Participio Divino sperant.
