“1. Men are not ordained in order to make or produce anything but to administer what they find in the church, the more they do not produce or make baptism but are to give and administer them. 2. Baptism is water and the Word. How? Does the minister make it so? No, but because it's Christ's institution. Bread and wine also become the body of Christ because Christ so ordained.” Tabletalk, Rörer #659, early 1535, LW, AE, 54:119
