Product Details

This 1901 hardcover book, "Baptism," by William G. Williams, offers an in-depth discussion of baptism in religious doctrine and theology. Published by Jennings & Pye. Measures 6" x 4.5" and has 109 numbered pages. The book is an argument defending the Wesleyan-Methodist perspective on baptism. Instead of literal, physical immersion, Williams asserts that the New Testament language is a symbolic and theological statement about the experience of regeneration. The book is not a general treatise on baptism but a targeted response to the "immersionists" of his day, who included Baptist and Disciples of Christ denominations. Some wear to cover consistent with age. There is some foxing / staining present on some pages and the inside cover. See pictures for further details on condition.
