The Second London Baptist Confession of Faith Paragraph 30.2

content_copy
In this ordinance Christ is not offered up to his Father, nor any real sacrifice made at all for remission of sin of the quick or dead, but only a memorial of that one offering up of himself by himself upon the cross, once for all;⁠1⁠ and a spiritual oblation of all possible praise unto God for the same.⁠2⁠ So that the popish sacrifice of the mass, as they call it, is most abominable, injurious to Christ's own sacrifice the alone propitiation for all the sins of the elect.⁠⁠
