Book Description

Excerpt from The Baptismal Controversy: Its Exceeding Sinfulness If the necessity of debate is not inherent in the ordinance, then the strife began in sin and has been perpetuated in sin. Perhaps neither party in the strife would seriously affirm that the real causes of the issues were enclosed within the ordinance itself, as that would be a reflection on the wisdom of the Lawgiver but they would mutually criminate each other with being the cause Of the strife.
