  • Sacraments and Baptism in the Reformed Confessions
    MTJ 11 (2000) 21-86 SACRAMENTS AND BAPTISM IN THE REFORMED CONFESSIONS by Cornelis P. Venema Introduction FEW STUDENTS OF the great reformation of the Christian church in the sixteenth century would quarrel with the thesis that it restored the centrality of the pulpit to the worship of the congregation of Jesus Christ. A casual observer of the architecture of the churches of the Reformation will immediately notice the central location of the pulpit in their sanctuaries and the prominence of preaching in the liturgy or form of worship. Convinced that Christ was pleased to communicate himself to his people through the living preaching of the Word of God, the Reformers uniformly insisted upon the central and indispensable place of the ministry of the Word as a means of grace. However, this emphasis upon preaching was not intended to diminish the indispensable and integral role of the sacraments in Christian worship and the imparting of Christ’s grace to his people. Though the Reformers opposed what they regarded as an unbiblical sacramentalism or sacerdotalism in the medieval Roman Catholic Church, they never embraced a spirit or practice of anti-sacramentalism. In the confessions and polemics of the sixteenth century regarding the nature and effectiveness of the sacraments, ample evidence is provided of the Reformers’ conviction that Christ is pleased to dwell among and in his people, not only through the preaching of the Word, but also 22 • MID-AMERICA JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY through the proper administration of the sacraments which necessarily accompany the Word. Indeed, when measured against the teaching and practice of the magisterial Reformers, the practice of many evangelical churches, even churches that stand historically in the tradition of the Reformation, represents a declension and impoverishment with regard to the sacraments.

    LEAGUE NEWS The Newsletter of the League of Historical Societies of New Jer- Atlantic County to LEAGUE RECOGNIZED BY NEW JERSEY HISTORICAL COMMISSION Host League Meeting on At the New Jersey Historical Commission’s Annual Conference on November March 12th 20th, the League of Historical Societies of New Jersey was recognized for its role in promoting the history of New Jersey. The text of the commission’s citation *************************** appears below: Article and registration form “The League of Historical Societies is honored for its important role in promoting interest in the history of New Jersey. The League was founded in on page 11. 1967, following the New Jersey Tercentenary and the Civil War Centennial. These two events spurred general interest in the state's past. A number of local and statewide historical groups were established in this period, and in 1965, these groups met to discuss how the state's numerous local societies might come together for the regular exchange of information and ideas and for cooperative action in pursuit of their mutual interests. Since that period, the League has steadily built a statewide organization of organizations to fulfill its mission. “It now numbers some 300 member societies representing over 65,000 individual members. It is by far the largest grass roots organization devoted to New Jersey history, and it has played a role of crucial importance in public activities to protect state historical programs. “To fulfill its mission, the League relies solely on the volunteer efforts of its governing board and other members; it has no headquarters or other operating resources; its only source of funds is nominal membership dues which provide an annual budget of about $5,000.
