A Baptist Manual: The Polity of the Baptist Churches and of the Denominational Organisations (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Baptist Manual: The Polity of the Baptist Churches and of the Denominational Organisations
It is perhaps too early to write the history of this movement. But it is not too early to indicate the point to which we have come. All Baptist manuals are of necessity out of date. We have felt for some time in our Department of Practical Theology at the University of Chicago the need of a book in which the conditions as they now exist among us would be clearly set forth. Perhaps the special pressure occasioned by divinity lectures may be the excuse for my undertaking to perform this task.
