And as regards your remark that they went out from you. Paul, when at Miletus, showed to the elders of Ephesus (Acts 20:30), that among them, and out from the flock, there should arise wicked men, teaching perverse things—is it not so, my lord?” Inq. “Yes.” Jac. “Is not, then, my lord, the baptism which you people practice, a perverse and utterly contrary thing, since Christ commanded to baptize those who believed and were instructed and taught. And the apostles baptized only those who received the word; but you people baptize only those that do not believe, and cannot be instructed or taught, nor receive the word, since they are infants: which appears to me utterly contrary, and like putting the cart before the horse.” Inq. “This is because you are in heresy, my child, and do not believe the holy teachers; see how it will go with you. Well then, let us speak of another article.” And having seen and read the confession which I had read before the commissary, as I said before, he asked me: “What do you believe of the eucharist?” Jac. “What is that?” Inq. “Of the sacrament of the altar.” Jac. “Do you mean the Lord’s Supper, or breaking of bread?” Inq. “Yes, it is the same thing, eucharist, sacrament or supper.” Jac. “My lord, it is not the same name; for, see, how the apostles named it: Luke says that they brake bread from house to house, and not the body of Christ.” Acts 2:46. Inq. “That which Luke speaks of there, is the word of God, which they distributed to every one.” Jac. “My lord, so say also David Joris and other heretics, who abolish the breaking of bread. But observe, when Paul was at Troas and they had gathered together in the night, so that a young man fell down from the high loft, Luke says that Paul continued his speech until midnight, so that the young man fell through a window; and when they had come up again, Paul having raised him up, they brake bread and eat it—they did not eat the word; after which Paul talked till break of day, and then departed.” Acts 20:7. ## Original source [Read this passage on Project Gutenberg](https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/65855/pg65855-images.html#Page_574) [Edition details](https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/65855) [Previous page: CONFESSION OF JACQUES D’AUCHY, MADE BEFORE THE COMMISSARY AND THE INQUISITOR.](/en/stories/mm-confession-of-jacques-dauchy-made-before-the-commissary-and-the-inquisitor/part-5/) · [Book contents](/en/sources/martyrs-mirror/#book-contents) · [Next page: CONFESSION OF JACQUES D’AUCHY, MADE BEFORE THE COMMISSARY AND THE INQUISITOR.](/en/stories/mm-confession-of-jacques-dauchy-made-before-the-commissary-and-the-inquisitor/part-7/) --- Page: https://history.truechristian.church/en/stories/mm-confession-of-jacques-dauchy-made-before-the-commissary-and-the-inquisitor/part-6/ [Contribute a correction or addition](https://github.com/trueChristian/history.truechristian.church/issues/new?title=Correction%3A+Confession+Of+Jacques+D%E2%80%99Auchy%2C+Made+Before+The+Commissary+And+The+Inquisitor.+%C2%B7+Page+6+of+27&body=%23%23+Page+or+topic%0AConfession+Of+Jacques+D%E2%80%99Auchy%2C+Made+Before+The+Commissary+And+The+Inquisitor.+%C2%B7+Page+6+of+27%0A%0APage%3A+https%3A%2F%2Fhistory.truechristian.church%2Fen%2Fstories%2Fmm-confession-of-jacques-dauchy-made-before-the-commissary-and-the-inquisitor%2Fpart-6%2F%0A%0ARecord%3A+mm-confession-of-jacques-dauchy-made-before-the-commissary-and-the-inquisitor--b00083-o000000%0A%0ADate+currently+shown%3A+16th+century+%28source+section%29%0A%0A%23%23+Correction+or+addition%0A%0A%0A%0A%23%23+Sources+and+evidence%0APlease+include+book%2Fpage+references%2C+archive+links%2C+or+first-hand+documentation.%0A%0A%0A%0A%23%23+Image+credit+%28if+applicable%29%0ACreator%2C+source%2C+and+permission+or+public-domain+basis.%0A%0A%0A%0ASubmitted+for+review%3B+this+issue+does+not+publish+changes+automatically.)
