Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Graves-Ditzler Or, Great Carrollton Debate is a book by J.R. Graves that chronicles a debate that took place in Carrollton, Kentucky in the mid-1800s. The debate was between Graves and a man named Ditzler, and it centered around the issue of baptism. Graves was a Baptist preacher who believed in baptism by immersion, while Ditzler was a member of the Church of Christ who believed in baptism by pouring or sprinkling. The book provides a detailed account of the debate, including the arguments made by both sides and the responses they received from the audience. It also includes transcripts of the speeches given by each participant, as well as commentary from Graves on the points made by Ditzler. In addition to documenting the debate itself, the book also provides historical context for the issues at stake. It discusses the history of the Baptist and Church of Christ denominations, as well as the theological differences between them. Overall, The Graves-Ditzler Or, Great Carrollton Debate is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of American Christianity and the debates that have shaped it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
