I. One Baptism for the Forgiveness of Sins
978
“When we made our first profession of faith while receiving the holy
Baptism that cleansed us, the forgiveness we received then was so full and
complete that there remained in us absolutely nothing left to efface, neither
original sin nor offenses committed by our own will, nor was there left any
penalty to suffer in order to expiate them…. Yet the grace of Baptism
delivers no one from all the weakness of nature. On the contrary, we must still
combat the movements of concupiscence that never cease leading us into evil
