And yet this is not to tye necessitie of saluation to the sacramentes, nor to nousell men vp in that opinion. This is agreable with the scriptures, and therfore when they bring the baptised child they are receyued with this special commenda∣tion: I certifie you, that you haue done well and according to due order. &c.
