16. A Church furnished with Officers (according to the minde of Christ) hath full power to administer all his Ordinances; and where there is want of any one or more Officers required, that Officer, or those which are in the Church, may administer all the Ordinances proper to their particular Duty and Offices, but where there are no teaching Officers, none may administer the Seals, nor can the Church authorize any so to do.
