Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

Hand-book is offered for promiscuous circulation, it is hoped not a few churches will have it bound up with their respective church manuals, thus giving the feeblest church the prestige of honorable association with its denomination, history, principles, and institutions; and the most effective means of making known, and defending their faith. W. W. Everts, Jr., contributed the first and sixth chapters of this Manual, besides rendering important assistance in preparing the other matter for the press. W. W. E.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This captivating book comprehensively explores the Baptist denomination, delving into its history, beliefs, practices, and significance within the broader Christian landscape. Tracing the Baptist tradition back to the early church, the author unveils the enduring principles that have shaped Baptist identity throughout the centuries. Central to these principles are the conviction that only adult believers should be baptized and that each local church is independent and self-governing, under the headship of Christ alone. The book delves into the pivotal moments in Baptist history, from their origins in the Reformation to their role in shaping religious freedom in the United States. The author highlights the Baptist emphasis on personal faith, separation of church and state, and the importance of missionary work. Throughout, the book underscores the Baptist commitment to the authority of Scripture and the transformative power of the gospel. Finally, the book explores the ways in which Baptist beliefs and practices have influenced Christianity and society at large, from their promotion of religious liberty to their contributions to social reform movements. The author concludes by emphasizing the enduring significance of Baptist insights into the nature of the church, the role of the individual believer, and the importance of a personal relationship with Christ.
