Close Communion (Classic Reprint): Or Baptism as a Prerequisite to the Lord's Supper - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Explore a provocative look at church practice and belief, tracing the roots of close communion and baptism in the Lord’s Supper.
This book surveys the history and arguments surrounding baptism as a prerequisite for partaking in the Lord’s Supper. It contrasts close and open communion, examines the positions of Baptists and other denominations, and sheds light on how leaders and movements shaped these debates. The author presents historical milestones, key figures, and the argument that belief in biblical authority should guide practice more than popularity.
- Understand the origins of close communion and why some groups insist baptism by ordained ministers is necessary for the Lord’s Supper.
- Learn how different denominations viewed ordination, sacraments, and church authority across centuries.
- See how prominent figures and churches wrestled with unity, liberty of conscience, and the authority of Scripture.
- Discover how these debates influenced broader questions about religious liberty and ecclesiastical practice.
Ideal for readers of church history, Baptist heritage, and readers seeking a clearer picture of how baptism and communion concepts have evolved in Protestant tradition.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
