Synopsis

Excerpt from Distinctive Principles of Baptists

Baptism is a New Testament ordinance. This the Westminster Confession Of Faith concedes. The New Testament, therefore, should settle every question rel ative to baptism. This is the universal Opinion of Baptists. Pedobaptists, however, are not willing — as we shall see — to make an exclusive appeal to the New Testament in determining who are proper subjects of baptism. More of this in another place. My Object at present is to Show that there is no authority in the New Testament for infant baptism. Let us see. To the law and to the testimony.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Baptists differ from -- other Christian denominations it may be well for me to say that in many things there is substantial agreement. As to the inspiration, and the consequent infallibility, of the word of God, there is no difference of opinion. The Bible Ls recognized as the supreme standard of faith and practice that is to say, it teaches us what to believe and what to do. Salvation by grace is a doctrine which commands the cordial assent of all Christians.
