Book Overview

Immersion Not Baptism is a book written by John H. Beckwith and published in 1858. The book is a theological treatise on the practice of baptism, arguing that immersion is the only valid form of baptism. Beckwith argues that baptism by immersion is the only method that adheres to the biblical teachings on baptism, as well as the historical practices of the early Christian church.

Beckwith also addresses common objections to immersion and provides evidence from scripture and historical sources to support his argument.
