THE RENEWAL OF BAPTISMAL VOWS
(from AN ALTERNATIVE ORDER OF CONFIRMATION, BCP 1928 UK)
¶ Then shall the Bishop say,
DO ye here, in the presence of God, and of this congregation, renew the solemn promise and vow that was made in your name at your Baptism; ratifying and confessing the same in your own persons, and acknowledging yourselves bound to believe, and to do, all those things, which your Godfathers and Godmothers then undertook for you?
And every one shall audibly answer, I do.
DO ye here, in the presence of God, and of this congregation, renounce the devil and all his works, the pomps and vanity of this wicked world, and all the sinful lusts of the flesh, so that ye will not follow nor be led by them?
Answer. I do.
DO ye believe all the Articles of the Christian Faith as contained in the Apostles’ Creed?
Answer. I do.
DO ye endeavour to keep God’s holy will and commandments, and to walk in the same all the days of your life?
Answer. I will.
