More Than A Symbol

By Stanley K. Fowler

Subjects: Bible, theology, Baptists, doctrines, Sacraments, Baptism

Description: Seeks to demonstrate that the interpretation of baptism as a mere symbol bearing witness to a previously completed conversion experience is inadequate both as a summary of biblical teaching and as a summary of Baptist thought. The book also argues that this view is not a Baptist novelty, but is rather a recovery of the foundational Baptist thought of the seventeenth century. --from publisher description
