Jacob Mehrning, having noted that the Waldenses
were called anabaptists, says (p. 696): “But
their right, proper, and true name is, and should
be, by rights, Christians and Christian-baptists;
because they, according to the command and
ordinance of Christ, baptize none but those who,
according to Christ’s baptismal ordinance, know
Christ from his holy Gospel, believe on him, and
upon such faith, are rightly baptized in the name
of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.”
