Baptism: The Doctrine Set Forth In Holy Scripture And Taught In The Evangelical Lutheran Church by Charles Porterfield Krauth. Krauth's treatise defends the Evangelical Lutheran Church's doctrine of baptism, arguing that baptism is God’s work mediated through the Word and the Holy Spirit, and that the mode of applying water—immersion, pouring, or sprinkling—is not essential to its validity. Drawing on Luther’s catechisms, the Small and Large Catechisms, the Smalcald Articles, and the Augsburg Confession, the work shows that Scripture presents baptism as an ordinary means of grace, not a magical operation; faith is required for its saving effects. It examines the phrase born of water and the Spirit (John 3:5), the relation of baptism to regeneration, original sin, and infant salvation, and contrasts Lutheran teaching with Baptist and Calvinist positions. Krauth argues for a robust, gospel-centered view: baptism accompanies faith, supports the Word, and remains a legitimate channel of grace within the church. The volume reflects Lutheran historical theology and its devotion to scriptural-sacramental doctrine.
