Excerpt from The Relation of Confirmation to Baptism: As Taught in Holy Scripture and the Fathers
Between Baptism and Confirmation has been obscured, and therefore the full force has not been allowed to the expressions concerning the second of the two baptismal acts. It is well, therefore, to turn to the history of the Church, and see what was felt by early Christian teachers in days subsequent to the close of the Canon, in order that, when we examine the literal meaning of the Scriptures upon the point, we may have some security that we are not interpreting those Scriptures in a modern fashion.
