Girolamo Zanchi quotes:

"It is not false that Christ died for all men: for the passion of Christ is offered to all in the Gospel. But he died effectually for the elect alone, because indeed they only are made partakers of the efficacy of the passion of Christ."

"It is not impious to paint [an image of] Christ, insofar as he is man, as long as the image is not worshipped."

"For as the bread is really and truly united unto us eating...so also is the flesh of Christ truly...united unto us who eat the same."

"We teach a conjoining [of Spirit and flesh] when we offer inanimate bread, that by the word and benediction of God it is united in some way with the living body of Christ and becomes one with it, through a union that is sacramental."

"Can the ministers of baptism...truly baptize, that is, to wash away sins and to regenerate? I respond, yes in every way…But...sacramentally, that is, as they administer the sacraments, through whom Christ himself cleanses, regenerates, as through an instrument."

"Christ now performs through the ministers of the church what he did through his own body while he was among men for their salvation."

"The Church of Christ does not offer a propitiatory sacrifice in the Supper but a Eucharistic (i.e., thanksgiving) sacrifice."

"Another benefit [of Baptism] is the Grace of regeneration. For those who are grafted into Christ himself through Baptism are changed into his nature: and we become partakers of his divine nature: flesh of his flesh &c. John. 1."
