Source: Martyrs’ Mirror. Original heading: XI. OF THE WASHING OF THE SAINTS’ FEET.46



We also confess a washing of the saints’ feet, as
the Lord Christ not only instituted, enjoined and
commanded it, but himself, although he was their
40
Lord and Master, washed his apostles’ feet, thereby
giving an example that they should likewise wash
one another’s feet, and do as he had done unto
them; which they accordingly, from this time on,
taught believers to observe, as a sign of true humility,
and, especially, to remember by this feet-washing
the true washing, whereby we are washed
through his precious blood, and made pure after the
soul. John 13:4–17; 1 Tim. 5:10.
