Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Scriptural Law of Baptism, or the Design of Baptism Presented and Applied: Leading to an Examination of Its Form, Its Subjects, Its Authority, and Its Relative Position The general plan of the following treatise was suggested to the author by a series of discourses delivered by him in 1841, before the South Baptist Church in Hartford, Conn. It was at first his intention simply to prepare a small work on the Design of baptism, including an exhibition of its relation to proper views of the form, the subjects, the authority, and the relative position of the ordinance. The intimate connexion of the subject with other points of interest and importance pertaining to the nature and relations of baptism, subsequently led to the determination to extend somewhat the original plan; and the work was gradually expanded into its present form. It is now given to the public with the hope that it will not be deemed a work of supererogation. In its preparation the author has acted under the conviction, that, notwithstanding the numerous valuable works on baptism already published, there is in this field of Christian investigation, "much land yet to be possessed;" while in many cases, even the most familiar facts may be presented with increased impressiveness and effect. He believes it will be found upon examination that a comparatively small portion of the work is a repetition of the arguments presented by other authors. He has endeavored, it is true, to introduce these arguments sufficiently to give completeness to the work, - to constitute it, in fact, a complete manual on the subject of baptism. But this object being secured, he has confined his attention chiefly to the presentation of new facts and illustrations, or the exhibition of former ones in new points of light. In his mode of argumentation he has seldom assumed a defensive position. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
