Publisher's Synopsis
The Evils of Infant Baptism is a book written by Robert Boyte Crawford Howell in 1851. The book is a critical analysis of the practice of infant baptism in the Christian church. Howell argues that infant baptism is not supported by the Bible and that it is a harmful practice that goes against the teachings of Christ.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of infant baptism. Howell discusses the history of the practice, its theological basis, and its social and cultural implications. He also examines the arguments used to support infant baptism and offers a counterpoint to each one.Throughout the book, Howell emphasizes the importance of personal faith and individual choice in matters of religion. He argues that baptism should be a voluntary act of commitment to Christ, rather than a ritual imposed on infants who are unable to understand its significance.The Evils of Infant Baptism is a thought-provoking and controversial work that challenges traditional Christian beliefs and practices. It remains a significant contribution to the ongoing debate over the role of baptism in the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
