Article IX: Of Baptism.
Of
Baptism they teach that it is
necessary to
salvation, and that through Baptism is offered the
grace of God, and that
children are to be baptized who, being offered to God through Baptism are received into God's grace.
They condemn the
Anabaptists, who reject the baptism of children, and say that children are saved without Baptism.
