Acts and Records of the Famous Controversy About the Baptism of Heretics.
[5452] [It has been profoundly felt, that, as the Church of Rome in her early rectitude (Rom. i. 8) reflected Peter’s confession, so in her lapse (Rom. xi. 20, 21) she reflects this terrible rebuke. If she was once identified with Peter’s Rock, so now, alas! with Peter’s Satan.]
[5454] Scil. the bishop. [The plural of “solidarity.” See p. 128, note 5, supra, and Elucidation XI. p. 159.]
[5456] By him who hears the word is meant a catechumen (Rigaltius). [Bunsen, vol. ii. p. 317. He quotes the Apostolical Constitutions (Alexandria), “Let the catechumens be three years hearing the word,” etc.]
[5458] The original interpolates “non.”
[5459] [Scil. baptisms (?) i.e., of water and of blood.]
[5461] Matt. xxiv. 4, etc.
[5463] [Ezek. xxxiii. 12. On the principle that what is deepest in man’s heart proves, finally, the character;Phil. ii. 12. A very solemn consideration in human accountability (1 Pet. i. 17), but not to be disjoined from 2 Cor. vi. 10.]
[5464] [Vol. i. p. 505, note 12, this series.]
