This comprehensive study begins by investigating the antecedents of Christian baptism. It then surveys the foundation of Christian baptism in the Gospels, its emergence in the book of Acts and its development in the apostolic writings. Following a section relating baptism to New Testament doctirne, a substantial discussion of the significance of infant baptism leads to a briefer discussion of baptismal reform and ecumenism.
