Download or read book The Promise of Baptism written by James V. Brownson and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians who otherwise love each other and work together on shared projects and causes nonetheless often disagree on the subject of baptism. Should infants be baptized, or is baptism for believers only? What exactly does baptism mean? What happens, if anything, when someone is baptized? Which is better -- sprinkling or immersion? These disagreements are disheartening to some and confusing to many. The sacrament of baptism from a Reformed perspective is clearly and thoughtfully outlined in this useful book. James Brownson explains the scriptural basis, the theological underpinnings, and the practical implications of this particular element of the faith. Organized into thirty brief, tightly focused chapters -- each of which centers on a key question -- and enhanced by thoughtful discussion questions, The Promise of Baptism will be an important resource for pastors, students, and laypersons seeking to better understand this sacrament that lies at the heart of the church's life. A sampling of key questions addressed: What is a sacrament, and how does it differ from an "ordinance"? What's the relationship between baptism and being "born again"? How do the sacraments bring God's grace to us? Can someone be "saved" without being baptized? Can someone be baptized without being saved? Does baptism take the place of circumcision as the mark of the new covenant? What is "confirmation" or "profession of faith," and what is its relationship to baptism? What happens after baptism?

Download or read book Baptism written by Jack Cottrell and published by College Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Scripture is far from silent on the subject of baptism, yet history is strewn with such a variety of perspectives that it becomes difficult to gain a clear view of what the Bible itself actually has to say: How would the original readers of Acts, Romans, or Colossians have understood the texts concerning baptism when they read them for the very first time? How do readers of today understand the baptismal references of the New Testament if they have no particular commitment to a certain theological point of view? In thirteen chapters, Dr. Cottrell discusses the twelve major texts in the New Testament and does so by examining the meaning of the original words, the historical background, and the comparative references. The texts covered: Matthew 28:18-20, Mark 16:15-16, John 3:3-5, Acts 2:38-39, Acts 22:16, Romans 6:3-4, 1 Corinthians 12:13, Galatians 3:26-27, Ephesians 5:25-27, Colossians 2:11-13, Titus 3:5, 1 Peter 3:21"--P.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will open a new world of baptism. This book shows many ways where baptize is used in scripture and that water is not always the object of application. What does it mean to baptize according to scripture? It reveals the hidden mysteries of the word baptize throughout many scriptures. Baptism is used without the mentioning of the word baptize. That is the MYSTERY, that only God himself can reveal to you because only he can see it.

Download or read book Waters of Creation A Biblical Theological Study of Baptism written by Douglas Van Dorn and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the one book on baptism that you must read. It was seven years in the making. The author believes that until a new approach is taken, separations over the meaning, mode, and recipients of baptism will never be bridged. This new approach traces the roots of baptism deep into the OT Scriptures. When understood properly, we discover that baptism is always the sign that God has used to initiate his people into a new creation. Baptism in the NT is not "new." Rather, it derives its origin from OT predecessors. When we understand that baptism comes from baptism, especially in its sacramental expression in the priestly covenant, reasons for the NT practice begin to make perfect sense. Now Baptists have an argument that infant Baptists can finally understand, because we are beginning our argument in the same place. Yet, we continue to have very baptistic conclusions as to the mode and recipients of baptism, because we root baptism in baptism rather than circumcision.

Download or read book Baptism written by and published by Sumit Prasad. This book was released on 2013-12-09 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended for baptized and unbaptized (youth). A more thoughtful way for writing this book is for Ø The baptized who want to understand this sacrament better and to put it refreshingly to use all their lives Ø The unbaptized (youth) they will understand what is baptism? The unbaptized can then picture what the consequences will be for them if they do present themselves for baptism and they can understand how they too might put baptism to work for the rest of their lives. None of the concept is made by our own mind but I have tried to explain each part by considering the sole authority of bible verse. I have given bible verse from different English translations it’s only for the better understanding of the verse. In this book I have tried to answer the few questions. Ø What is baptism? Ø What is Eucharist (Holy Communion)? Ø What will be the right age for baptism and taking part in Eucharist (Holy Communion) Ø What is the “New Covenant” and to whom bible called “People of New Covenant”? Ø What will be disadvantage or detriment of taking Baptism & Holy Communion without knowing Jesus & Holy Life in Christ? Ø What are the eternal blessings in Christ? Ø Why baptism is called new birth? Ø What is meaning of born of water and spirit? (John 3:5) What bible says about worship in spirit?
Download or read book Baptism written by H. Ironside and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-19 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While, in the pages that follow, controversy has been so far as possible (consistently with the object of presenting what I believe to be the truth as to Baptism) sedulously avoided, yet it is hoped a careful perusal may prove helpful even to those who have been troubled by conflicting views. The pamphlet presents the conclusions I have been obliged to come to after utterly denying for a number of years any present importance attaching to this ordinance, and after a careful study of what others have put forth on the subject, as well as much time spent, I trust before the Lord, over the word of God.The apology for its publication, if such be needed, can be stated in a few words. In going about, now for some years, seeking to "do the work of an evangelist," I have been importuned again and again for a paper expressing my thoughts on this question. Finding no publication that seemed to me altogether suitable (so few being at all full without being exceedingly controversial), I have tried to give as clearly and briefly as possible, what I believe to be the scriptural teaching upon it.
