Baptists today tend to be dispensational, rather than covenantal.
Wow. I hadn't heard that about Douglas Wilson. Very interesting.... I'm still hanging on to the credo-position.
Good tip, James. As for someone moving to paedobaptism, a friend of mine had some blog posts on the topic with a lot of comments (pages worth) first for credobaptism, then for paedobaptism defending his newfound position. Quite the interesting read which takes you through most of the arguments. You can see his posts on baptism here.
This book: Believer's Baptism: Sign of the New Covenant in Christ (B&H) edited by Shaun Wright and Tom SchreinerAnd this one: Christian Baptism by John Murray
First one is from a Baptist perspective that yet understands and appreciates some of the covenantal theology that supports paedobaptism. The second one is supposed to be a classic paedobaptism argument. I haven't fully read either, but both have been recommended to me.
Good to see you on here, too Kim. I have lots going on but I'll try to contribute to discussions here from time to time. I love Goodreads.
Anyone can get the book free by .pdf if they have a blog and pledge to review it on their blog. You can request up to 2 Reformation Trust books. Details here: http://www.ligonier.org/publishing_refor...
I'm about half way through the book, although I'm stuck with a .pdf copy until I finish it and post a review on my blog.... Great book, I learned a lot and I think some of the best parts are yet to come.
