Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Water Baptism And The Outward Supper: No Institutions Of Christ, A Review Of Two Essays by Blackley is a book that examines the practices of water baptism and the outward supper (communion) in Christianity. The author, William Blackley, argues that these practices are not institutions of Christ, but rather human traditions that have been added to the faith over time.The book is divided into two parts, with each part reviewing one of Blackley's essays on the topic. In the first essay, he argues that water baptism is not necessary for salvation and that it is a human tradition that has been added to the faith. He also examines the history of water baptism in the church and how it has evolved over time.In the second essay, Blackley looks at the outward supper (communion) and argues that it is also a human tradition that has been added to the faith. He examines the history of communion in the church and how it has been practiced differently by different denominations.Throughout the book, Blackley provides a thorough analysis of the biblical passages that are often used to support these practices and offers alternative interpretations. He also examines the historical and cultural context in which these practices developed.Overall, Water Baptism And The Outward Supper: No Institutions Of Christ, A Review Of Two Essays by Blackley is a thought-provoking book that challenges traditional Christian practices and encourages readers to reexamine their beliefs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
