Note 140 — First Part. (continued 10)
Joseph F. Sohm translation
The proper time for baptizing was still Easter and Whitsuntide. Bapt. Hist., page 550, num. 2. White garments were put on those baptized, which signified the innocence, salvation and purity of the Christian; that they should henceforth, all through life, keep themselves unspotted from iniquity. Page 553, num. 14.
