' 5th. — In pursuance whereof, we further declare, that we allow of baptism to those only, who profess tlieir faith in Christ and obedience to him, and to the children of such ; yet we dare not refuse it to any 33 child offered to us by any professed Christi...an, upon his engagement to see it educated, if God give life and ability, in the Christian religion, ' But this being a ministerial act, we think it the pastor's province to receive such professions and engagements ; in whose prudence and con- science we acquiesce.
