Book Description
A work of first-rate scholarship in which Paul Jewett writes the most persuasive case ever to demolish the best arguments posed in favor of infant baptism, showing this practice to be an unbiblical vestige of ecclesiastical tradition. Jewett demonstrates that only the only valid New Testament baptism is "believer's baptism". His criticisms of paedobaptist arguments from Augustine down to Jeremias are thorouigh and devastating.

About the Author
Paul K. Jewett served as Professor of Systematic Theology at Fuller Theological Seminary and as Dean of the Young Life Summer Institute of Theology. He is author also of "The Lord's Day", publisehd by Eerdmans.
