Baptism

Most Christians are blissfully unaware of the bloody history of water baptism, and that Christians have murdered other Christians for baptizing people the 'wrong' way. But is there a 'right' way to baptize? In this book, John Schoenheit examines the historic roots of baptism, and shows why, by the time of John the Baptist, baptism was an accepted practice in ancient Israel. He also examines the history of baptism in the Church, and shows the reasons why some people believe immersion is the correct method of baptism, while other people believe pouring or sprinkling is the preferred method.

John Schoenheit has been researching and teaching the Bible for over 40 years both in the USA and abroad. He is the president and a co-founder of Spirit & Truth Fellowship International, a ministry dedicated to biblically based teaching and fellowship. John has authored and co-authored numerous books on biblical subjects, including, The Bible: You Can Believe It; The Christian's Hope: The Anchor of the Soul; Don't Blame God: A Biblical Answer to the Problem of Evil, Sin, and Suffering; The Gift of Holy Spirit: The Power to Be Like Christ; and The Death Penalty: Godly or Ungodly? John leads tours to Israel and the Mediterranean, and also runs camps and conferences on how to study the Bible. John and his family live in Bloomington, IN.
