number_n of_o the_o member_n of_o christ_n the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o the_o heir_n rather_o than_o the_o inheritor_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n of_o the_o rehearsal_n of_o the_o ten_o

answer_n to_o those_o of_o the_o second_o and_o therefore_o we_o desire_v it_o may_v be_v advise_v upon_o whether_o to_o the_o last_o word_n of_o this_o answer_n may_v not_o be_v add_v particular_o on_o the_o lord_n day_n otherwise_o there_o be_v nothing_o in_o all_o this_o answer_n that_o refer_v to_o the_o four_o commandment_n qu._n 14._o how_o many_o sacrament_n have_v christ_n ordain_v

20._o why_o then_o be_v infant_n baptize_v when_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o tender_a age_n they_o can_v perform_v they_o answ_n yes_o they_o do_v perform_v they_o by_o their_o surety_n who_o promise_n and_o vow_v they_o both_o in_o their_o name_n we_o desire_v that_o the_o enter_v of_o infant_n into_o god_n covenant_n excep_v may_v be_v more_o wary_o express_v and_o that_o the_o word_n may_v not_o seem_v to_o found_v their_o baptism_n upon_o a_o real_a actual_a faith_n and_o repentance_n of_o their_o own_o and_o we_o desire_v that_o a_o promise_n may_v not_o be_v take_v for_o the_o performance_n of_o such_o faith_n and_o repentance_n especial_o that_o it_o be_v not_o assert_v that_o they_o perform_v these_o by_o the_o promise_n of_o their_o surety_n it_o be_v to_o the_o seed_n of_o believer_n that_o the_o covenant_n of_o god_n be_v make_v and_o not_o that_o we_o can_v find_v to_o all_o that_o have_v such_o believe_a surety_n who_o be_v neither_o parent_n nor_o pro-parent_n of_o their_o child_n in_o the_o general_a we_o observe_v that_o the_o doctrine_n of_o the_o sacrament_n be_v add_v upon_o the_o conference_n at_o hampton_n court_n be_v much_o more_o full_o and_o particular_o deliver_v than_o the_o other_o part_n of_o the_o catechism_n in_o short_a answer_n fit_v to_o the_o memory_n of_o child_n and_o thereupon_o we_o offer_v it_o to_o be_v consider_v 1._o whether_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v a_o more_o distinct_a and_o full_a explieation_n of_o the_o creed_n the_o commandment_n and_o the_o lord_n prayer_n 2._o whether_o it_o be_v not_o conutnient_a to_o add_v what_o seem_v to_o be_v want_v somewhat_o particular_o concern_v the_o nature_n of_o faith_n of_o repentance_n of_o the_o two_o covenant_n justification_n sanctification_n adoption_n and_o

of_o their_o confirmation_n he_o shall_v know_v for_o truth_n that_o it_o be_v certain_a by_o god_n word_n that_o child_n by_o be_v baptize_v have_v all_o thing_n necessary_a for_o their_o salvation_n and_o be_v undoubted_o save_v although_o we_o charitable_o suppose_v the_o meaning_n of_o these_o word_n except_o be_v only_o to_o exclude_v the_o necessity_n of_o any_o other_o sacrament_n to_o baptize_v infant_n yet_o these_o word_n be_v dangerous_a as_o to_o the_o mislead_v of_o the_o vulgar_a and_o therefore_o we_o desire_v they_o may_v be_v expunge_v after_o the_o catechism_n so_o soon_o as_o the_o child_n can_v say_v in_o their_o mother_n tongue_n the_o article_n rub_v of_o the_o faith_n the_o lord_n prayer_n and_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o can_v answer_v to_o such_o other_o question_n of_o the_o short_a catechsm_n &c_n &c_n then_o shall_v they_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o bishop_n and_o the_o bishop_n shall_v confirm_v they_o we_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v not_o a_o sufficient_a qualification_n for_o confirmation_n except_o that_o child_n be_v able_a memoriter_fw-la to_o repeat_v the_o article_n of_o the_o faith_n common_o call_v the_o apostle_n creed_n the_o lord_n prayer_n and_o the_o ten_o commandment_n and_o to_o answer_v to_o some_o question_n of_o the_o short_a catechism_n for_o it_o be_v often_o find_v that_o child_n be_v able_a to_o do_v all_o this_o at_o four_o or_o five_o year_n old_a 2._o it_o cross_n what_o be_v say_v in_o the_o three_o reason_n of_o the_o first_o rubric_n before_o confirmation_n concern_v the_o usage_n of_o the_o church_n in_o time_n past_a ordain_v that_o confirmation_n shall_v be_v administer_v to_o they_o that_o be_v of_o perfect_a age_n that_o they_o be_v instruct_v in_o christian_a religion_n shall_v open_o profess_v their_o own_o faith_n and_o promise_v to_o be_v obedient_a to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n three_o we_o desire_v that_o none_o may_v be_v confirm_v but_o according_a to_o his_o majesty_n declaration_n viz._n that_o confirmatjoin_n be_v right_o and_o solemn_o perform_v by_o the_o information_n and_o with_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o minister_n of_o the_o place_n rubric_n after_o the_o catechism_n then_o shall_v they_o be_v bring_v to_o the_o bishop_n by_o one_o that_o shall_v he_o his_o godfather_n or_o godmother_n this_o seem_v to_o bring_v in_o a_o second_o sort_n of_o godfather_n and_o godmother_n except_o beside_o those_o make_a use_n of_o at_o baptism_n and_o we_o see_v no_o need_n either_o of_o the_o one_o or_o other_o the_o prayer_n before_o imposition_n of_o hand_n who_o have_v vouchsafe_v to_o regenerate_a these_o thy_o servant_n by_o water_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o have_v give_v they_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o all_o their_o sin_n this_o suppose_v all_o the_o child_n who_o be_v bring_v to_o be_v confirm_v excep_v have_v the_o spirit_n of_o christ_n and_o the_o forgiveness_n of_o all_o their_o fin_n whereas_o a_o great_a number_n of_o child_n of_o that_o age_n have_v commit_v many_o sin_n since_o their_o baptism_n do_v show_v no_o evidence_n of_o serious_a repentance_n or_o of_o any_o special_a save_a grace_n and_o therefore_o this_o confirmation_n if_o administer_v to_o such_o will_v be_v a_o perilous_a and_o gross_a abuse_n rub._n before_o the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n the_o bishop_n shall_v lay_v his_o hand_n upon_o each_o child_n several_o this_o seem_v to_o put_v a_o high_a value_n upon_o confirmation_n than_o except_o upon_o baptism_n or_o the_o lord_n supper_n for_o according_a to_o the_o rule_n and_o order_n of_o the_o common-prayer-book_n every_o deacon_n may_v baptise_v and_o every_o minister_n may_v consecrate_v and_o administer_v the_o lord_n supper_n but_o the_o bishop_n only_o may_v confirm_v the_o prayer_n after_o imposition_n of_o hand_n we_o make_v our_o humble_a supplication_n to_o thou_o for_o these_o child_n upon_o who_o after_o the_o example_n of_o thy_o holy_a apostle_n we_o have_v lay_v our_o hand_n to_o certify_v they_o by_o this_o sign_n of_o thy_o favour_n and_o gracious_a goodness_n towards_o they_o we_o desire_v that_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n may_v not_o be_v allege_v as_o a_o ground_n of_o the_o imposition_n of_o hand_n for_o the_o confirmation_n of_o except_o child_n both_o because_o the_o apostle_n do_v never_o use_v it_o in_o that_o ease_n as_o also_o because_o the_o article_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n declare_v it_o to_o be_v a_o corrupt_a imitation_n of_o the_o apostle_n practice_n art_n 25._o we_o desire_v that_o imposition_n of_o hand_n may_v not_o be_v make_v as_o here_o it_o be_v a_o sign_n to_o certify_v child_n of_o god_n grace_n and_o favour_n towards_o they_o because_o this_o serm_n to_o speak_v it_o a_o sacrament_n and_o be_v contrary_n to_o that_o fore_n mention_v 25._o art_n which_o say_v that_o confirmation_n have_v no_o visible_a sign_n appoint_v by_o god_n the_o rub._n after_o confirmation_n none_o shall_v be_v admit_v to_o the_o holy_a communion_n until_o such_o time_n as_o he_o can_v say_v the_o catechism_n and_o be_v confirm_v we_o desire_v that_o confirmation_n may_v not_o be_v make_v so_o
