Synopsis

Excerpt from The Meaning of Baptism

T IS with great reluctance that the author has gained the consent of his own mind to write this book and to send it forth.

In a time when men''s souls are vibrating to problems involving the most vital interests and ideals of humanity one''s prestige is not likely to be enhanced by connecting one''s name with a book on The Meaning of Baptism. It will seem like turning from the living pres ent to the dead past to discuss this question again. Modern-minded men in all the churches - including also the churches that have made a feature of the dogma of immersion - have little interest in the controversy. The great new issues of life and death have for them dis placed those problems of ecclesiastical refine ment which engaged their fathers.

In a time when mens souls are vibrating to problems involving the most vital interests and ideals of humanity ones prestige is not likely to be enhanced by connecting ones name with a book on The Meaning of Baptism. It will seem like turning from the living present to the dead past to discuss this question again. Modern-minded men in all the churches including also the churches that have made a feature of the dogma of immersion have little interest in the controversy. The great new issues of life and death have for them dis placed those problems of ecclesiastical refine ment which engaged their fathers.
