Baptism According to Scripture
Transcribed from the 1850 Seeleys edition by David Price
"Baptism According to Scripture" by E. H. Hoare is a theological work written in the mid-19th century. This book meticulously explores the concept of baptism as it is presented throughout the Bible, examining scripture passages to discern the sacramental significance and implications of baptism for the Christian faith. The opening of the book provides insight into its purpose and structure. The author introduces the topic by referencing a clerical meeting where the understanding of baptism as a sacrament was discussed. It highlights the intention to thoroughly analyze every relevant scripture passage, establishing a foundation for the ensuing discourse on the meaning and importance of baptism in both personal faith and communal worship. The text delves into historical practices and interpretations of baptism, referencing figures from the Old Testament to illustrate continuity in the biblical narrative leading up to the New Testament teachings of John the Baptist and Jesus. In doing so, Hoare aims to clarify the scriptural basis for baptism, examining its role in the covenant community and its link to concepts of repentance and faith.
