Baptism: A Treatise on the Nature, Perpetuity, Subjects, Administrator, Mode, and Use of the Initiating Ordinance of the Christian Church

In this unintimidating volume, professor Thomas Osmond Summers presents a comprehensive, yet accessible and restrained, account of the doctrine of baptism. While giving due attention to issues of language and history, Summers competently discusses the subject without burying the reader in Greek etymologies and obscure writers. He covers the nature, proper subjects, administrators, mode, and use of baptism.
