Four Persons, who Had No Good Opinion of Infant Baptism and Transubstantiation, in the Year 1105

FOUR PERSONS, WHO HAD NO GOOD OPINION OF INFANT BAPTISM AND TRANSUBSTANTIATION, BANISHED AS HERETICS, FROM THE BISHOPRIC OF TREVES, IN THE YEAR 1105

Here what is noted for the year 1105, concerning those who opposed infant baptism in the twelfth century, claims our attention, namely, that then, under the archbishop of Treves, four persons were banished as heretics, because they had no good opinion of infant baptism, and denied that in the Supper the bread and wine were changed into the real body and blood of Christ.
