Book Description
Excerpt from Hints to an Inquirer: The Subject of Baptism First Published in the New England Puritan Those who practise immersion assume the position, that they may lawfully debar from the Lord's table all who administer baptism in other ways. This gives the question before us an importance which otherwise would not belong to it. If the exclusive principle advocated by this body of Christians is defensible on scriptural grounds, the greater part of Christ's professed disciples are intruders at his table. But if, on the other hand, Immersers are wrong, they are guilty of exercising an usurped authority in the house of God, and of withholding the children's bread. The honest inquirer on this subject, therefore, in settling the question, whether he shall be immersed and unite with Immersers, must, at the same time, settle the question as to close communion. He cannot join them in church fellowship, without giving his sanction to their exclusive principle. This fact he should take along with him, through the whole argument, and put every suggestion in favor of immersion to the test of the inquiry - Is this sure and satisfactory ground on which to base close communion? As to the use of names, we must be excused from using the term "Baptists," for those who practise immersion. The application to them of this name, is equivalent to a concession, that we do not baptize. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Scriptural View of the Mode of Baptism: In a Letter to an Inquirer Nor does the language of the Evangelist in describing the baptism of Jesus, prove that he was immersed. Mat thew says (ch. 3: that Jesus when he was baptized, went up from the water. In our translation it is - he went up straight way out OF the water. Every Greek scholar knows that the word ano, here translated, out q, generally signifies from, and cannot mean out of, ex cept by accident. If the Evangelist intended to describe Christ's rising out of the water, he certainly has not used appropriate language. But if Jesus went merely to the edge of the river without stepping into the water at all, the expression of the Evangelist - he went upfront the wa ter - is perfectly natural. It describes his ascending the banks of Jordan, which were of considerable height above the water: Of course he ascended them when he left the margin of the river. There is, then, nothing in the ac. Count of this baptism, which proves, or even renders it probable, that Jesus was immersed all over in the water. The same remarks apply to the account of the baptism of the eunuch, recorded in Acts 8: 38. They went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch and he baptized him. And when they come-up out of the water, &c. The words translated into-wand out of -as every one knows, acquainted with the Greek lan guage, usually mean to and from. I know not why the translators have here rendered them, into and out of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Christian Baptism: Its Subjects Those who think with Mr. Gamble, that if there is any controverted question which should be examined more carefully than any other, it is infant baptism, will not complain of the size of this book. No investigation, says he, can be too minute, and no study too laborious, if we would thoroughly understand this Divine revelation. With such knowledge and means as were possessed, I have endeavoured to record instruction on most aspects of the baptismal controversy, so that the doubting inquirer, without reading the whole, might read on the particular theme of his own perplexity. Were this or a similar book to be read by the many, I should feel as sincerely, if not as deeply, sorry as some of my Paedobaptist brethren. Were a worthy epitome of this work to be read by hundreds of thousands of Paedobaptists and Baptists I should be thankful.
