Baptism: We've Got It Right and Wrong

By Dr. John MacArthur

Baptism is a hot topic in the Christian world today. Some people argue that it is essential for salvation, while others claim that it is simply a symbol. In this comprehensive and thought-provoking book, author Dr. John MacArthur tackles the issue head-on, arguing that the Bible clearly teaches that baptism is not necessary for salvation but is rather a public declaration of faith in Christ.

MacArthur begins by examining the various passages in the Bible that deal with baptism. He shows that, while baptism is often mentioned in the New Testament, it is never presented as a requirement for salvation. In fact, MacArthur argues that the Bible teaches that salvation is a gift from God that is received by faith alone (Ephesians 2:8-9).

MacArthur also examines the history of baptism in the Christian church. He shows that, while baptism was practiced by the early church, it was never considered to be essential for salvation. In fact, some of the earliest church fathers, such as Origen and Tertullian, argued that baptism should be delayed until adulthood so that people could make a more informed decision about their faith.

MacArthur concludes by arguing that the Bible clearly teaches that baptism is not necessary for salvation but is rather a public declaration of faith in Christ. He urges Christians to focus on the essential elements of the gospel, such as faith, repentance, and grace, and to avoid getting sidetracked by debates about baptism.

Baptism: We've Got It Right and Wrong is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the biblical teaching on baptism. MacArthur's clear and concise writing style makes this book accessible to readers of all backgrounds, and his thorough research provides a solid foundation for his arguments.
