M. How must the word be used, that we may receive fruit from it?

C. We must embrace it with a firm persuasion of heart, as the very truth delivered to us from heaven: we must yield ourselves teachable, and submit our understandings and wills, in obedience to it: we must love it from the heart, that being engraven on our souls, it may take deep root and produce its fruits in our lives: and when we are conformed to this rule, it will become our salvation, as it is appointed.

M. But must we not give diligence, and strive with all earnestness, by reading, hearing, and meditating, that we may profit therein?

C. Yes, truly; and each one should not only daily exercise himself in private reading; but also at the same time, with special attention, frequently hear sermons in public meetings, where the doctrine of salvation is explained.

M. Can you prove this to me?

C. The will of God alone ought to satisfy us, abundantly, for proof. He commended this order to his Church, not that two or three only should observe it; but that all should unitedly be subject to it. Besides, he declares this to be the only method for the edification and preservation of his Church. This therefore should be to us a holy and inviolable rule, that it is not lawful for any one to assume to himself, to be wise above his master.

C. It is useless to begin, unless you persevere. For it becomes us to be the disciples of Christ even unto the end, or rather without end. And he hath committed this office to the ministers of the Church, that they should teach us in his name and stead.

M. What is a sacrament?

C. It is an outward testimony of the divine benevolence towards us, which, by a visible sign, shadows forth spiritual graces, by which the promises of God are sealed in our hearts, that the truth of them may be more firmly established.

교사: 우리 마음에 하나님의 약속을 인치시는 것이 성령의 고유한 직무인데, 어찌하여 그대는 이것을 성례에 돌리는가?

No translated text is available yet.

EN

M. Since it is the peculiar office of the Holy Spirit, to seal in our minds the promises of God, how do you attribute this to the sacraments?

C. The difference between the Spirit and these is very great. For it is truly the work of the Spirit alone to move and affect the heart, to illuminate the understanding, and to render the conscience stable and tranquil; and that work ought to be accounted wholly his own, and acceptance should be referred to him, lest the praise be transferred elsewhere. But this by no means prevents, but that God uses the sacraments as secondary organs, and applies those things in their use as seemeth him good; and he so does it, that nothing is derogated from the power of the Spirit.

M. You believe then, that the power and efficacy of the sacrament, do not consist in the external element, but that they proceed solely from the Spirit of God?

C. So I think. And truly it pleases the Lord to put forth his power, through his own institutions, for that end, for which he appointed them; and he does this in a manner, which detracts nothing from the power of his Spirit.

교사: 그분이 어찌하여 이런 방식으로 일하시는지 그 까닭을 내게 말할 수 있는가?

EN

M. Can you give me a reason why he operates in this way?

C. Truly, in this manner, he consults our infirmity. If we were wholly spiritual, like the angels, then we should be able spiritually to discern both him and his graces: but as we are enclosed in this earthly body, we need figures or glasses, which, in some sensible manner, may exhibit the spiritual aspect of heavenly things; which otherwise we should not be able to discern. At the same time, it is for our benefit that all our senses be exercised on the promises of God, that they may be more strongly confirmed to us.

EN

M. If it is true, that the sacraments were instituted of God, to be helps of our infirmities, must not those be justly condemned of arrogance, who judge themselves to be sufficient without them, or who account them useless?

C. Most certainly. And therefore, if any one abstain wilfully from the use of them, as if he had no need of them, he despises Christ, spurns at his grace, and extinguishes the Spirit.

M. But what confidence or real security, for confirming our consciences, can be derived from the sacraments, which are used promiscuously by the good and the bad?

C. Although the gifts of God are, in the sacraments, offered to the wicked, yet they reduce them to nothing, as I may say, in so far as it respects themselves; still however, they do not destroy the nature and power which the sacraments have in themselves.

M. Why do you say that Christ is to be sought in them?

C. I do not understand, that he is inherent in the visible signs, so that we should seek salvation from them, or imagine any power of conferring grace to be affixed to them, or shut up in them. But the sign is rather to be considered as a help, by which we are directly conducted to Christ, seeking from him salvation and every durable blessing.

No translated text is available yet.

EN

M. As faith is required, for the right use of the sacraments, how do you say, that they are given to us for the confirmation of faith, that they may render us more certain of the promises of God?

C. It is by no means sufficient, that faith be once begun in us, unless it be continually nourished and increased daily, more and more. For this end the Lord instituted the sacraments, to nourish, strengthen, and increase our faith. And this Paul teaches, when he says that these avail for sealing the promises of God.

EN

M. But is it not a proof of unbelief, if we have not an established faith in the promises of God, unless they are confirmed to us by other means?

C. This surely argues the weakness of faith, under which the children of God labour; who still, on that account, do not cease to be believers, although as yet they are endowed with small and imperfect faith. For as long as we are conversant in this world, the remains of distrust always adhere to our flesh, which we are no otherwise able to shake off, than by continually making progress to the end of life. It is the duty of every one therefore to make farther progress in faith.

M. What is the resemblance or difference between them?

C. Baptism is the appropriate way of entrance into the Church. For in this we have the testimony, that we who were before strangers and foreigners are received into the family of God, and numbered among his household. But the Supper witnesses that God, by nourishing our souls, shews himself a Father to us.

M. But how does water represent regeneration?

C. As the origin of our regeneration is in the death of Christ, and its end and effect in his resurrection, so, in this respect also, baptism is to us a figure; that being engrafted into the death of Christ, we may be partakers of his resurrection.

M. Whence have we regeneration?

C. Both from the death and resurrection of Christ. For this power is in his death, that by it our old man is crucified, and the corruption of our nature is, in a manner, buried, so that it no more prevails in us; but it is the benefit of the resurrection, that we are begotten unto a new life, to the obedience of the righteousness of God.

No translated text is available yet.

EN

M. What must we do, in order to use baptism in a right manner?

C. The right use of baptism is placed in faith and repentance; that is, that we first determine, by a sure confidence of soul, that we are cleansed from all spots by the blood of Christ, and are acceptable to God; then that we believe that his Spirit dwells in us; and that we make this manifest by our works among others; and also that we assiduously exercise ourselves in striving for the mortification of the flesh, and obedience to the will of God.

M. If these things are required for the legitimate use of baptism, how comes it to pass that we baptize infants?

C. It is not necessary, that faith and repentance always precede baptism. These are required only of those who from age are capable of both. It is sufficient, if infants, after they come of age, produce the fruits of their baptism.

M. Can you prove to me that there is nothing unreasonable in this?

C. Truly, I can, if it is conceded to me, that our Lord instituted nothing which is unreasonable. For although Moses and all the prophets teach, that circumcision was the sign of repentance, and Paul that it was the seal of the righteousness of faith; yet, we see, that infants were not excluded from it.

M. Do you conclude from this that the sign is also to be used?

C. He who well examines the subject on both sides, will observe that this is the consequence. For Christ has not made us partakers of his grace, which was before given to Israel, by a measure, which should be to us either more obscure, or in any part diminished; but he has rather poured forth his grace upon us, in a more clear and abundant manner.

EN

M. Do you think, that if infants were excluded from baptism, they would, on that account, so lose any of the favour of God, as that it might be said, that their privileges were diminished by the coming of Christ?

C. That is indeed evidently manifest. For the sign being taken away, which availed so much in testifying the mercy, and confirming the promises of God; we should be deprived of that most excellent consolation, which the Church from the beginning enjoyed.

M. This is your opinion then; for as much as God, under the Old Testament, that he might shew himself to be the Father of little children, commanded the promise of salvation, to be engraven on their bodies, by a visible sign; that it would be a reproach, if believers, after the coming of Christ, should have a less confirmation; when the same promise, which was formerly given to the Fathers, is ordained for us in these days, when God exhibits to us in Christ a clearer manifestation of his goodness?

C. So I think. Besides, as it is sufficiently evident, that the power and substance (so to speak) of baptism, are common to infants, then if the sign is denied them, which is inferior to the substance, a manifest injury will be done them.

339

KO

교사: 그렇다면 유아는 무슨 목적으로 세례를 받는가?

M. For what purpose then are infants baptized?

C. We are taught by this, that as bread has the power of nourishing our bodies, and of sustaining the present life; so the same power is in the body of our Lord for the spiritual nourishment of our souls: and as with wine the hearts of men are cheered, their powers renewed, and the whole body strengthened, so from the blood of Christ, the same benefits are to be received by our souls.

M. Are we then fed by the body and blood of the Lord?

C. So I think. For as in this is placed our whole confidence of salvation, that the obedience which he has rendered to the Father should be imputed to us, and accounted as ours, so it is necessary that he should be received by us: for we are not otherwise made partakers of his benefits, but only as he makes himself ours.

M. But did he not then give himself to us, when he offered himself to death, that he might reconcile us, redeemed from the sentence of death, to the Father?

Yes, but I add this, that it be done, while we not only believe that he died to deliver us from death, and rose again to procure life for us; but also that we acknowledge that he dwells in us; and that we are united to him, by that kind of union, by which the members are united to the head, so that, by the privilege of this union, we may be made partakers of all his benefits.

M. Do we obtain this communion through the Supper only?

C. By no means. For by the gospel, as Paul testifies, Christ is communicated to us, as we are therein taught, that we are flesh of his flesh, and bone of his bone; that he is the living bread, which came down from heaven to nourish our souls; that we are one with him, even as he is one with the Father: and such like things.

Wherefore I do not doubt, but that as he is witnessed by words and signs, so he will make us partakers of his substance, that we may be united with him in one life.

M. Should not the imperfection then, under which we here labour, prevent our coming to the Supper?

C. By no means, for if we were perfect, the Supper would have no further use among us, as it is appointed to be a help for relieving our weakness, and a refuge for our imperfection.

M. Have not these two sacraments some other proposed end?

C. They are also marks, and as it were tokens of our profession. For in the use of them we profess our faith among men, and testify, that we have one mind in the religion of Christ.

M. If any one should despise the use of these, in what estimation is he to be held?

C. This certainly would be judged to be an indirect denial of Christ; and certainly such an one, since he disdains to profess himself a Christian, is unworthy to be numbered among Christians.

M. Is it sufficient to have received each sacrament once in a whole life?

C. One baptism is indeed sufficient, and this cannot lawfully be repeated: but with regard to the Supper it is different.

M. What is that difference?

C. By baptism the Lord introduces and adopts us into his Church, and thenceforward considers us, as of his family: after he has written us in the number of his people, he testifies by the Supper, that he takes care of us, and nourishes us as his members.

EN

M. Does the administration of baptism and the Supper alike appertain to all?

C. By no means: for these are the peculiar duties of those to whom is committed the public office of teaching: for to feed the Church with the doctrine of salvation and to administer the sacraments are things united in a perpetual connection among themselves.

M. Are you able to prove that to me by the testimony of scripture?

C. Christ, indeed, gave the commission of baptizing expressly to the apostles; but in the celebration of the Supper, he commanded us to follow his example: and the Evangelists inform us, that he performed in that distribution the office of a public minister.

M. But ought those pastors, to whom the dispensation of the sacraments is committed, generally to admit all persons without distinction?

C. As it respects baptism, since it is administered at the present day only to infants, all are to be admitted without distinction: but at the Supper, the minister ought to take care not to communicate it to any one who is publicly known to be unworthy.

M. But did not Christ honour Judas, however impious, with the sacrament?

C. Yes, but his impiety was at that time secret; for although Christ himself knew it, still it was not as yet known to man.

M. What then shall be done with hypocrites?

C. The pastor has no power to reject them as unworthy; but he ought to wait till God so far reveals their iniquity, as that it becomes known to men.

M. What if he should know or be informed, that some one was unworthy?

C. That would by no means be sufficient for rejecting him from the communion, unless there be first had a legitimate trial and judgment of the Church.

M. It is important then to have a certain order of government established in the Churches?

C. It is true; for otherwise they can neither be well established nor correctly governed. And this is the order; that Elders be chosen who may preside in the Censura morum, or superintend the discipline of morals, and watch to correct small offences; and who shall reject from the communion, those whom they know to be without a capacity for receiving the Supper; and those who cannot be admitted without dishonouring God, and giving offence to the brethren.
