Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a theological debate within the Christian faith, specifically concerning the ordinance of baptism and its role in church communion. The author passionately defends the stance of those known as "Strict Baptists," who believe that immersion baptism upon a profession of faith is a prerequisite for participation in the Lord's Supper. Set against the backdrop of 18th-century religious discourse, the book challenges the prevailing practices of the Church of England and other denominations that allow infant baptism and open communion. The author meticulously examines historical and scriptural evidence to support the Baptist position, highlighting the significance of believer's baptism as an act of obedience to Christ's commands. Central to the discussion are questions of church authority, the interpretation of scripture, and the nature of Christian unity. The author argues that adherence to biblical principles, rather than human tradition or sentiment, should guide the practices of the church. He emphasizes the importance of maintaining the integrity of Christ's institutions while fostering genuine love and fellowship among true believers. Ultimately, this book offers a compelling case for the Baptist perspective on baptism and communion, underscoring the need for faithfulness to Christ's teachings and the pursuit of authentic Christian community.
