Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: And now, dear brethren and sisters, the hour has come for you to be baptized. As you have gladly received His word, I would have you joyfully obey His command. I never shall forget the day I was baptized. Oh, dear friends, if you could ever know (God grant you may never know it experimentally) the horrors of hell through which I passed in my infidelity, then you might know the joy of my conversion, when I saw my Redeemer, when I fell at His feet and said in my heart: "Lord, tell me what to do, I'll do it without a question." So when I took His Book and read about baptism I went to the church and asked to make a statement. They gathered around me to hear. I told my experience and asked to be baptized. Lovingly they received me and we went down to old Davidson Creek, in Burleson County, and there an old schoolmate, W.W. Harris, called the Spurgeon of Texas, baptized me. As I went down into the water I thought of Christ's burial and my own future burial. I saw myself cold in death. I thought of Christ's triumphant resurrection. I felt in mind the earthquake shock and heard the chains of the terrible one bound to His chariot. The supernal glory of His demonstrated divinity illumined my heart. I thought of my own future resurrection, and trumpet sound, the waking dead, the white throne of judgment, and my place at His right hand; my heart overflowed with love and joy and peace. I can see it all now; time does not dim the picture. So I would have you to be baptized.

Download or read book Wittenberg Vs Geneva written by Brian William Thomas and published by Nrp Books/New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2016-02-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the differences between Lutherans and Calvinists, and do they really matter? In Wittenberg vs. Geneva, Brian Thomas provides a biblical defense of the key doctrines that have divided the Lutheran and Reformed traditions for nearly five centuries. It is especially written to help those who may have an interest in the Lutheran church, but are concerned that her stance on doctrines like predestination or the sacraments may not have biblical support. To get to the heart of the matter, Pastor Thomas focuses solely upon those crucial scriptural texts that have led Lutheran and Reformed scholars down different paths to disparate conclusions as he spars with popular Calvinist theologians from the past and the present.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is believer’s baptism the clear teaching of the New Testament Scriptures? What are the historical and theological challenges to believer’s baptism? What are the practical applications for believer’s baptism today? Volume two in the NEW AMERICAN COMMENTARY STUDIES IN BIBLE & THEOLOGY (NACSBT) series for pastors, advanced Bible students, and other deeply committed laypersons addresses these compelling questions. Indeed, Believer’s Baptism begins with the belief that believer’s baptism (as opposed to infant baptism or other faith proclaiming methods) is the clear teaching of the New Testament. Along the way, the argument is supported by written contributions from Andreas Kostenberger, Robert Stein, Thomas Schreiner, Stephen Wellum, Steve McKinion, Jonathan Rainbow, Shawn Wright, and Mark Dever.

Bestselling author and radio host Dr. Andrew Farley is known to blitzkrieg legalistic and lifeless interpretations with his discerning take on controversial Scriptures.

Download or read book The Baptism of Jesus the Christ written by Ralph Allan Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-04-05 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The baptism of Jesus by John the Baptizer is one of the theologically richest narratives in the Gospels, touching the transition from the old to the new covenant, the doctrines of water and Holy Spirit baptism, and the doctrine of the Trinity, to name only the most significant of topics. In The Baptism of Jesus the Christ, Ralph Allan Smith addresses each of these areas, aiming in particular to respond to James D. G. Dunn's view that Jesus' baptism and the gift of the Spirit are fundamentally distinct events, to revive John Calvin's view of the baptism of Jesus as central to understanding Christian baptism, and to suggest directions for re-thinking the doctrine of God's attributes in the light of the fully personal interaction of Father, Son, and Spirit reflected in the baptismal narrative.
Download or read book Water Spirit Fire written by David James Grams and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-08-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are two sacraments that Jesus left to His disciples: Communion and Water Baptism. Jesus deemed baptism so important, in fact, that He said, "Those who believe and are baptized will be saved." What is it about dunking someone in water that's so consequential? Water baptism, the baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire, and the washing of regeneration are all terms in the Bible used to describe how God cleanses and empowers the disciple of Jesus to change his own life and to change the lives of others. Without baptism, there is no cleansing, no power, and no conquering the old life. In this book, in addition to doctrinal explanation, you will be given practical steps for how to baptize someone in water, how to baptize someone in the Holy Spirit, and how to know when the right time to do these things has come. About the Author: David Grams is Founder of Valiant Ministries International. He and his wife, Allie, with their children, live in Minneapolis, MN. Their heart is to see Christians grounded in intimacy with God and empowered to walk just as Jesus walked.
Download or read book Baptism in the New Testament written by G. R. Beasley-Murray and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-08-01 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptism In The New Testament In this thorough and well-documented study of the sacrament of Holy Baptism, G.R. Beasley-Murray presents a critical defense of the doctrine of believers' baptism on the basis of the New Testament evidences. The author--one of the leading New Testament scholars in England--is himself a Baptist; but his discussion transcends denominatioal lines. Beasley-Murray begins by discussing various rites that precede Christian baptism historically, and analyzes the relationship between these earlier rites and baptism. From these antecedents--Old Testament ritual washings, Jewish proselyte baptism, the lustrations practiced at Qumran, and the baptism of John the Baptist--the author proceeds to the foundations of Christian baptism in the career of Jesus, its emergence as recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, and its development in the New Testament epistolary literature. In his consideration of the doctrine of Christian baptism as ariculated in the New Testament, Beasley-Murray focuses his attention on the necessity of baptism and its relationship to grace, faith, the Spirit, the church, ethics, and hope. A careful examination of the rise and significance of infant baptism follows, and the study concludes with a selected bibliography and several indices.
Download or read book Baptism and the Lord s Supper written by Thabiti M. Anyabwile and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-08-02 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s Supper have played an important role in the church since its earliest days. There has also been much disagreement within the church about how to understand them. Pastors Thabiti Anyabwile and J. Ligon Duncan have teamed up to outline the Bible’s basic teaching about baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Speaking from different traditions, they bring perspective to the discussion while both observing that baptism and the Lord’s Supper should be fundamentally understood as pointing to something greater. This new booklet from the Gospel Coalition will bring clarity for those wanting to understand the importance of baptism and the Lord’s Supper. The authors offer a thoughtful explanation for point 12 of the Gospel Coalition’s Confessional Statement. The coalition is an evangelical renewal movement dedicated to a Scripture-based reformation of ministry practices.
