We caution the reader against
thinking that a huge subject like baptism can be understood properly from a few
pages on a web-site! As you will see
from this poster spotted in the Channel Islands, there are
extremes!
The Theology of Baptism
The theology of
baptism was reviewed in depth during the 1988/1990 debates
in General Synod The content of the initiating debate is set out in
full in the Anglican section of this web site.
We hasten to add this poster does NOT
represent BI policy!
We recognise that
biblical interpretation on baptism is one of the most divisive issues.
Indeed it has been described as the "Water that divides"! We
refer researchers to the bibliography in the "Resources"
section of this Website. However we have also assembled a number of less
public articles - some otherwise unpublished.
Apart from the
books listed below, researchers are particularly encouraged to view the UFCOS
paper which is reproduced in full. Click here for introductory
page to the eight chapters.
