Résumé : | Baptism is front-page news in Christian circles to-day. What does it mean ? When should it be administered ? By whom ? Does it convey grace ? Or is it a mark of grace ? Or both ? Is it an act of witness, of dedication, or of initiation ? All these questions, and many more, are dealt with in this classic work on this compelling issue of faith and doctrine, written by an author who has made the subject not only the study, but also the teaching and practice, of a lifetime. |
