    During the baptismal service, the Prayer Book addresses the sponsers of the child. The opening statement is:

    "Dearly beloved, you have prayed that our Lord Jesus Christ may be pleased to receive, cleanse, and sanctify this child, and grant unto him the blessing of eternal life, which things Christ, for His part, will most surely perform. And now this child, on his part, must through you, his sponsors, promise and vow that he will renounce the devil and all his works, believe in Christ, and obediently keep God's commandments."

    That is the actual wording at an Anglican baptism of an infant.

    Cheers,

    Jim
