Apology (Parts 18, 19): Number, Use of Sacraments; Ecclesiastical Order
Melanchthon discusses the number and use of the sacraments. He defines "sacrament" and then lists three that Lutherans accept as sacraments (Absolution would later be left off the list since it lacked an earthly element). Melanchthon also addresses ecclesiastical order, obviously not a point of contention.
