sacramentes be gyuen into an open testimonie of that pryuate grace whiche is fyrst present in euery priuate man So is baptisme gyuen before the congregacion vnto hym whiche before he receyue the sacrament either he coÌ„fessed the relygion of Christe or els he hath the worde of promyse wherby it is knowne hym to pertayne vnto the churche And for this cause when we baptise one waxen we aske hym whyther he beleueth And yf he answere ye then he receyueth baptisme Vvherfore it is playne that he had fayth or he receiued the sacrameÌ„t of baptisme And thus it appereth manyfest that fayth is not gyueÌ„ by baptisme And yf an infante be offred to be christined it is asked whyther his parentes offer hym to be baptised when they answere by the wytnesses that so is theyr wyll then is the chylde baptyzed Vvhere it is playne y t the promyse of God preceded wherby they be rekened to be of the church as well as thynfantes of the Hebrwes For when these men whiche are of the churche offer theyr infantes they preseÌ„te theÌ„ because they be christen mennes chyldren and so rekened by the promyse of god to be amonge the meÌ„bres of the churche By baptisme therfore the church openly receyueth hym whiche was fyrst receiued by grace wherfore baptisme bringeth not grace but it testyfieth to the churche that grace is gyuen before to hym y t is baptized I beleue therfore oh Ceasar the sacrameÌ„t to be y e sygnificacion of an holy thiÌ„ge euen of grace forgiuenes before grauÌ„ted vs. I beleue y t visible figure or forme of baptisme that is to say that visible exemple to be y e forme of that inuisible grace whiche is made and gyueÌ„ by the benefyte of god which example representeth in a maner a certayne analogie and proporcion of the thyng done by the spirite I beleue the sacrameÌ„t to be an open testimonye As when we be baptized the body is wasshed with the moste clene Element but by this it is sygnified that we by the fauourable gracious goodnes of God are receyued into the feloweshyp of the churche and people of god amoÌ„ge whom we professe to lyue puerly and innoceÌ„tly Thus doth Paule expounde this sacrament mysterie of baptisme Ro. vi Vvherfore the persone nowe baptized testifyeth hymselfe to be of the churche of god whiche must nowe worshyp his lorde god in thyntegrite of fayth in pure lyuyng And for this cause the sacramentes whiche are holye ceremonies for the worde coÌ„meth vnto the element and the SacrameÌ„t is done or made are religiously to be reuereÌ„ted that is to be had in hyghe estimacion entreted honorablye For albeit they may not make gyue grace yet do they associat vs vysiblie vnto the churche into whiche before we were inuysibly receyued Vvhiche thynge as it is pronounced and promulged togyther with the wordes of Gods promyse in the action of the wordes and sacrament so is it with hyghe relygion feare and reuerence to be honoured For yf we shuld any otherwyse thynke and beleue of the sacramentes that is to wyt that they outwardly adhibited and admoued shulde pourge vs within then were there nowe coÌ„men agayne amonge vs the very Iudaisme ryte of relygion of the Iewes Which by theyr dyuerse manyfolde vnctions oyntmentes oblacions washyngê brente sacryfices and banketes before theyr aulters and images beleued theyr synnes to be pourged and grace as it were boughte goten Whiche thynge the prophetes especyallye Isay and Ieremy dyd alwayes moste coÌ„stantly entreat and confute teaching that the promises and benefyts as grace and forgyuynes were gyuen by the mere mercy lyberalite of god and not for the desertes merytes of any outwarde ceremony Also I beleue these catabaptistes in that they deny the infantes of the faythfull theyr baptisme shamfully to erre not onely in this poynte but also in many other whiche there is nowe no tyme nor place to speke of Agaynst whoÌ„ with great perell but yet with gretter healpe of god I my selfe fyrst dyd both teache preche and wryte that men myght the soner and better auoyd both theyr folisshnes and malyce So that nowe throughe the goodnes of God that contagioÌ„ is greatly remytted and swaged amonge our nacion So far of is it that I at any tyme receyued ought of y t sedicious faction either preached it or defeÌ„ded it Â¶ The .viii. article Eyghtly I beleue that in the holy Supper of thankes gyuyng the very body of Christe is presente at the eyes and contemplacion of oure fayth That is to wyt that they whiche gyue thaÌ„kes vnto the Lorde for that benefyt gyueÌ„ vs in his sone aknowlege hym to haue had taken vnto hym very manhed in it verelye to haue suffered and verelye to haue had wasshen awaye our synnes in his bloud and so euery thynge done by Christe to be as it were present vnto them at the eye and conteÌ„placion of theyr fayth But that the very naturall bodye of Christe eyther shulde be essencially corporally and really in the supper or eaten with our mouthes teeth in the forme of breade as the papistes dreame or in the breade as som men imagen which yet sytte loke bak vnto for the pottes full of fleshe oute of Egipte This we do not onely deny but we affyrme it constantly to be an errour whiche is playne against the worde of God Vvhiche thynge by gods helpe moste noble Emperour I shall make it as cleare in fewe wordes vnto youre Maiestie as the sonne Fyrste bringyng for me the worde of god secondarely pressynge as it were with engynnes vnable to be resisted agaynst our aduersaries that is with argumeÌ„tes taken grouÌ„ded of the scriptures And laste of all declarynge the olde diuynes to haue euer
