Synopsis
Understanding baptism and regeneration from an Episcopal perspective.
This book explains how the Protestant Episcopal Church views baptism, regeneration, and the role of the Holy Spirit. It contrasts baptismal faith with other views, and situates these rites within the broader story of Christian salvation.
The text traces how early Christian practice and Protestant thought shape a distinctive stance on baptism, infant membership, and the lifelong transformation expected of believers. It presents clear definitions, scriptural references, and the practical questions churches face when teaching and practicing this sacred ordinance.
- how baptism relates to spiritual regeneration and forgiveness
- the difference between inward change and outward rites
- the place of infant baptism and household baptisms in church practice
- the reasons for carefully distinguishing grace, faith, and works in salvation
Ideal for readers of church history, theology, and Episcopalian study who want a grounded, scripturally informed view of baptism and its effects.

Doctrine of Baptism (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a theological debate that raged in the early Christian Church: the meaning of baptism. The author explores the question of whether baptism signifies a spiritual rebirth or simply an outward act of joining the church. The debate hinges on the interpretation of key scriptural passages, particularly John 3:5. The author argues against the interpretation that baptism itself grants spiritual regeneration, highlighting the importance of individual faith and repentance. The book unpacks the nuances of the term "regeneration" and examines the author's interpretation of St. John's Gospel. The author also explores the historical context of these theological arguments, tracing them back to the early church and highlighting the potential dangers of misinterpretations. This exploration provides crucial insight into the evolution of Christian thought and the importance of understanding the Bible in its historical context. The author's careful analysis and scriptural interpretation offers a compelling argument against the notion of baptismal regeneration, illuminating the true nature of faith and salvation in the Christian tradition.
