Circumcision and Baptism: Examining These Practices of the Christian Church Harness Mel
In this book, the author examines two historic practices of the Christian church that overlapped in the first century, circumcision and water baptism. Additionally, you will see how water baptism has its roots in the ancient rite of purification. By understanding that circumcision, which began with Abraham, ceased to be a requirement after Jesus' crucifixion, clarity can be gained on how water baptism also is no longer a holy requisite after the initiation of the new covenant.
While some hold that water baptism washes away sin, others believe it is an important first step after someone becomes a follower of Christ. Baptism with water has continued as a universal tradition in the Christian church for two thousand years being considered an important or essential ordinance in all denominations. But is water baptism even to be a practice for today?
