THE REFORMED CHVRCH

THe confession of Wirtemberg.k 1.1 We doe not doubt but that the Apostles in the beginning of the Gos∣pell reuealed, and confirmed at the Feastiuall day of Pentecost, haue giuen by the impositition of hands the admirable gift of the holy Ghost, to those which belee∣ued in Christ, to the end that they should speake in di∣uers languages. But of a personall and temporall act of the Apostles, there ought not to bee a generall and perpetual Sacrament in the Church without the com∣maundement of God. And it is a horrible thing to heare it reported, that the Sacrament of confirmation which the Bishops Suffragans haue accustomed to mi∣nister to infants, excelleth in dignitie the Sacrament of Baptisme. For there are some which feare not to af∣firme the same. As it is a thing (say they) done by the greatest, that is to say, by the Bishops, and cannot bee done by the meaner sort of Priests: so ought it to bee held in greater honour and estimation.
