Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Baptism: Its Doctrine and Mode Scripturally Presented in a Conversation Between a Baptist and a Presbyterian During a ministry of nearly thirty years, spent in Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas, and principally in evangelistic work, I have had many opportunities of listening to disputations on the subject of baptism. In country and village Baptist Churches it has furnished the theme for almost every sermon for years; and the more ignorant the minister and people, the more frequently has the subject been discussed. Indeed, it has happened, not infrequently, that children at the common schools have made this subject the cause of battles royal on the play-ground during recess. The frequent discussion of the subject by immersers has had its effect upon the minds of the people, who were compelled to listen, if they went to preaching at all, to the extent that those who were not well-grounded on the doctrine of sprinkling or pouring, had their views so changed, or so modified as to give rise to a feeling of indifference on the subject. So liberal have many Pedo-baptists become, that they allow that it is a matter of but little consequence how the sacrament is administered, provided the thing be called baptism. It has often been thrown in the face of Presbyterian young people, that their ministers do not preach on baptism, because they have no Scriptural grounds on which to stand; and at the close of a Baptist protracted meeting, not long ago, the minister told his congregation that "it was universally conceded by all intelligent people that immersion, and immersion alone, is Bible baptism."
