when forgiveness of sin is promised by tliem tu those who
repent ?
D. The word minister answers the question, for it is equivalent
to saying, one who administers or dispenses, which is their share
of the work, administering the word of God's Gospel, and dispensing
the Sacraments, according to God's holy revelation,
for to himself alone belongs the forgiveness of sins, with the
inworking of his Hoiy Spirit, and he never communicated this
power to prophet or to disciple, or to any other man, save to
Jesus Christ alone.
M. What then is the sum of thy faith ?
D. That God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (and the
Father of us all) is the beginning and principal cause
of all things, and that he governs, and that nothing is
done without his appcHntment and his providence.
