Infant Baptism: Is It Biblical?
Albert N. Martin / Greg Nichols
A thorough, scholarly, in-depth, and graciously delivered series on a much controverted subject, these messages were given in the adult Sunday School of Trinity Baptist Church and thus should be easy for the average believer to follow and understand. “An extensive study of the subject of baptism, including what I regard in my exposure to the writing on the subject, the most convincing [polemic against infant baptism/for adult believer baptism].” — Albert N. Martin (from the Gospel of Mark series, message #113).
