Clear and concise. Baker accomplished exactly what he set out to do in writing this. His handling of the mode of baptism was especially enlightening. I would encourage anyone who’s even remotely sympathetic to the idea of infant baptism to read this. My heart was convinced on the matter months ago, but this work has certainly buttressed my belief that we are withholding many blessings from our children if we refuse them baptism. As I contemplate the beautiful truths in Christ that this Sacrament points to, my heart overflows with love for such a kind Savior who welcomes me AND my children to come to Him.

I was gifted this book by Greenville Seminary and was looking forward to reading it.

Personally, I found the argument for paedobaptism unconvincing (I’m still firmly convinced of credobaptism), however, I did find the argument against ONLY immersion worthwhile to consider.
