Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book's central focus is on the religious act of baptism, beginning with its divine and New Testament origins and covering its continuing relevance throughout Christian history. The author argues that baptism is an ordinance enacted by God himself, and is therefore not a human invention or optional practice. It is a permanent institution, and the author believes that it is still practiced in the present day. The book discusses the symbolic meaning of baptism and its importance as an initiatory ordinance, marking the beginning of a new life and relationship with God. It also examines the continuing relevance of baptism, even in a modern world where religious practices are often questioned or neglected. The author provides a comprehensive and well-reasoned argument for the importance of baptism, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history, significance, and continued relevance of this religious practice.
