WE have confessed above, that as soon as any person is ingrafted into Christ by the holy spirit, he does immediately obtain forgivenesse of all sins com∣mitted, and partakes a new life from
Christ the head, and so becomes a living member of the Church. But because even such as are the most holy in this militant Church, do ne∣verthelesse sin daily to the end of their lives, and consequently have alwaies need of new pardon for their offences, as likewise of new repen∣tance and new faith apprehending remission of sins through Christ; & because faith & repentance use to be stirred up by the ministry of the Word and Sacraments; therefore we believe that remission of sins is perpetually dispensed in the Church, and that the whole Ecclesiasticall ministry which is perpetually in the same, is ordained in reference thereunto.
