Modern Immersion Not Scripture Baptism (1831)

By William Thorn

Book Overview

Modern Immersion Not Scripture Baptism is a book written by William Thorn and published in 1831. The book argues against the practice of immersion baptism, which was becoming increasingly popular in the early 19th century. Thorn contends that immersion baptism is not supported by scripture and that other forms of baptism, such as pouring or sprinkling, are equally valid. He also argues that the practice of immersion baptism is a recent invention and that it has no historical or theological basis. Thorn's book is a significant contribution to the debate over baptism in the early 19th century and remains an important work for scholars of religious history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
