Download or read book Infant Baptism and the Covenant of Grace written by Paul King Jewett and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1978 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. Paul Jewett, author of the creative and highly provocative book Man As Male and Female, here turns his critical attention to the practice of infant baptism. Jewett does not accept the traditional "covenant" argument for baptizing infants, and this book explains why he believes this argument fails. Infant baptism is not a subject which can be isolated. For, as Jewett would have his readers understand, one's view on this issue is integrally related to one's view of the sacraments in general and thereby to the whole doctrine of the church and salvation. Thus it is understandable that what appears to be a minor theological question has had such divisive effects on the church. A discussion of the historical source of infant baptism begins Jewett's critique and introduces such issues as the distinction between infants and children, the silence of certain early church fathers on the subject, infant communion, and catechetical instruction. The second and major portion of this book examines the theological issue, focusing specifically on the covenant argument, which suggests that baptism replaces circumcision as the sign of the covenant and thereby is given to infants. This argument, Jewett claims, fails to take into account the historical character of revelation, and contains certain contradictions. Jewett concludes with a creative defense of believer baptism, one which is theologically responsible and which recognizes the profound truths of covenant theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How many times have you thought about your own baptism? If you are one of the many who have been brought up in a church that includes infants, you probably don't even remember the waters running down. In our hurried world, not many stop to question a sacrament performed so long ago. Yet biblically, the sign was meant to signify your personal relationship with the God of the universe. What could be more important than this? At present, we face the reality that the way baptism is practiced has no choice but to portray crucial elements of the cross-covenant. Does this arrangement merely offer us salvation, or does it signify our actual participation in the redemptive work of Christ? Down through the centuries, whole denominations have divided sharply over the issue, a situation that still remains with us. But for those caught under the waters, a burning question lingers-where in all of this do I stand with God? On a personal level, if you were unaware of the proceedings on that special day, one might be very surprised to learn how Old Testament circumcision answers this most important question. From its historical origins, spiritual realities, and harsh consequences, the practice of infant baptism must be revealed for what it is--and is not. This book serves as a powerful resource for both layman and clergy to take a much deeper glimpse into the nature of covenant relationships. Once inside, the reader will come to understand all that has happened to both the Church and the Gospel message ever since infant membership became a cultural norm. A comprehensive effort in returning jurisdiction over the baptismal waters back to the priesthood of Christ, this works will possess lasting value for anyone who wants to stand upright and true before the King.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work by Blake is a second treatment on covenant theology that was widely circulated during his time outside of his magnum opus work “The Covenant of God.” This book is a combination of two treatises he wrote, one concerning the covenant holiness of infants under the ordinance of baptism, and a second treatise covering answers to questions surrounding whether there is sufficient ground in scripture to warrant the conscience of a Christian to present his infants to the sacrament of baptism. Both are excellent Scriptural treatments of the subject, with exegesis surrounding passages such as Galatians 2:15, Genesis 17, 1 Corinthians 7, and Ephesians 4:1-3.

Download or read book Believing in Baptism written by Stephen Kuhrt and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Including a Foreword by The Rt Revd Dr Graham Tomlin, this volume examines the theology and practice of baptism. It contains a narrative introduction that highlights the different approaches taken to baptism, and the various issues that come with them. The volume also covers how the changing cultural context within Britain has influenced responses to baptism. At the heart of the book is a detailed examination of the theme of covenant running through the Bible and how this shapes its understanding of baptism. Gordon Kuhrt and his son Stephen explore several controversial issues associated with baptism. Believing in Baptism contains an in-depth discussion of the sacramental issues surrounding baptismal 'efficacy', for instance, as well as infant or family baptism. The authors also examine the 'Baptist' view, discrimination in Baptism and the issue of 'Rebaptism'. Finally, they consider the issue of 'Baptism and its Completion?', and make practical recommendations on the ways in which baptism should be taught and lived in the local church.

Download or read book Believer's Baptism written by Thomas R. Schreiner and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 392 pages. 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. Users will find this an excellent extension of the long-respected NEW AMERICAN COMMENTARY.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In arguing for biblical infant baptism, it is not sufficient for us to say that infant baptism is merely consistent with the Scriptures, or that a biblical case can be made for it. In order for us to be satisfied that we are being biblical Christians, we must be content with nothing less than a clear biblical case requiring infant baptism. In a doctrinal matter of this importance, the standards of evidence are high.

Book excerpt: The Christian church confesses "one baptism." But the church's answers to how, whom and when to baptize, and even what it means or does, are famously varied. This book provides a forum for thoughtful proponents of three principal evangelical views to state their case, respond to the others, and then provide a summary response and statement. Sinclair Ferguson sets out the case for infant baptism, Bruce Ware presents the case for believers' baptism, and Anthony Lane argues for a mixed practice. As with any good conversation on a controversial topic, this book raises critical issues, challenges preconceptions and discloses the soft points in each view. Evangelicals who wish to understand better their own church's practice or that of their neighbor, or who perhaps are uncertain of their own views, will value this incisive book.

Download or read book Baptism written by Morris Vaagenes and published by Kirk House Publishers. This book was released on 2006 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptism, a universal Christian activity, should be a mark of unity, yet practice and theology are often divisive. The Author explores the biblical foundations for Baptism and explains the various modes of Baptism to provide assurances that God is at work through the water and the word. His thesis is that through baptism a person enters into a new life, with a new relationship to god. It is an abundant life.Christians often deal with baptism in relation to death ("What happens to those who die unbaptized?"), the early church would more likely have asked, "What happens to those who live without baptism?" The point comes through over and over again in this book, that baptism is a baptism unto life. From Scripture, and from broad pastoral experience, Morris Vaagenes unfolds an appreciation of baptism both for everyday life and for eternal life.

Download or read book A Discourse on Covenant Theology and Infant Baptism written by Cuthbert Sydenham and published by Puritan Publications. This book was released on 2013-01-10 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work on Covenant Theology and Infant Baptism is a complete Presbyterian treatment of the subject of infant inclusion in the Covenant, and of the proper administration of the ordinance of baptism. Cuthbert specifically writes against the rising error in his day of credo-baptism, or believers only baptism. Cuthbert shows that the credo-baptistic position is by inference only, and how that position is scripturally unattainable, and that it does not reflect the manner in which God works in covenant with his people. He covers the nature of the Covenant made with Abraham, whether the infants of believers may not be called in the New Testament the seed of Abraham, and how any person may be said to be in the Covenant. He exegetically expounds Acts 2:39, Matthew 3:8-9, 1 Cor. 7:14, Romans 11:15-17, Matthew 19:13-14 with Mark 10:13 and Luke 18:15-17, Col. 2:11-12, Matthew 28:19 with Mark 16:15-16, Heb. 10:22, and Acts 10:47. This is a masterful polemic against the error of dispensationalism, and demonstrates faithfully the Scriptural foundation of God's covenant and ordinances.

Download or read book One Baptism written by Susan K. Wood and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Christians would say that baptism is the one sacrament Christians of all denominations share, that it is the source of ecumenical unity among all Christian churches. But how true is that? Is there really one baptism," as we profess in the Nicene Creed? If we disagree about what baptism does, can we really say that baptism unites us? To address this central question Susan Wood brings together the history and theology of baptism (systematic, sacramental, and liturgical), focusing especially on the divergent paths taken in the understanding of the sacrament since the Reformation. Founded not only in her study of theology but also in her years of participation in ecumenical dialogues, her perspective will illuminate this problem for readers and point the way toward deeper understanding.
