Baptism: The Believer’s Wedding Ceremony
SKU: G-026 | by F. LaGarde SmithBased on the biblical image of the church as the bride of Christ, Dr. F. LaGard Smith presents baptism as a wedding ceremony between believers and Christ. The result is a perspective on baptism that goes beyond traditional ideas of servile obedience or some “magic” baptismal regeneration. By analogy to marriage, baptism is lifted up as a declaration of love and loyalty through which meaning and vitality are given to authentic spiritual conversion.
