Résumé : |
Perhaps no command of Christ has occasioned so much controversy, bitterness and mistrust as the command to baptize. Who should be baptized? How? And what does baptism mean?
In this book a Baptist and an Anglican get together to face the issues and create understanding between those who disagree. Donald Bridge and David Phypers explain the views of baptists and infant baptists, subjecting both to the New Testament in an equally ruthless way. But the book goes beyond theory; biblical study is here combined with a consideration of baptism in history, an analysis of the present situation and suggestions for a way forward. |
