Rebaptism: Where to from here?
Rebaptism: How Did We Get here? and Rebaptism: What is it? This last post in the Rebaptism series deals with what can be done in the present situation. Once again, I want to address these issues related to rebaptism with my own Southern Baptist context primarily in mind. I realize the issue changes a bit [...]
ESV Study Bible Product Placement Photos Needed
UPDATE: Thanks to Brandon M for the first exhibit. Oprah needs to get some work done on her hands, though. Van Til here again. The lawsuit is proceeding well, but I need some evidence.

Rebaptism: How Did We Get Here?

In my response to him I reference the document “Baptism, Eucharist and Ministry” from the WCC. I know, but it’s really excellent. Just a friendly warning that I [...]
