Thus much may suffice to descry M. Hardinges slender argument.1 For, notwithstanding by the Sacrament of Baptism Christ be Naturally in us, yet may not he therefore conclude, that Christ is Naturally in the Sacrament of Baptism. Bonaventura saithe well: Non est aliquo modo dicendum, quod Gratia continetur in Sacramentis essentialiter, tanquam aqua in vase. Hoc enim dicere, est erroneum. Sed dicuntur continere Gratiam, quia eam Significant.2 We may not in any wise say, that the Grace of God is contained in the Sacraments, as Water in a vessel. For so to say, it were an error. But they are said to contain God's Grace, because they signify God's Grace.
