Title: Baptism a Biblical Study by Jack W. Cottrell ISBN: 0-89900-341-9 Publisher: College Press Publishing Company, Inc. Pub. Date: October, 1989 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $10.99 |

Summary: Simply Explained
Comment: This book explores each of the passages in the New Testament in which the meaning of baptism is discussed. After presenting the text, the author gives various interpretations used by different groups to support their views. In doing so, he rules out the poorer interpretations (those that are logically inconsistent, require lengthy explanation to make them "fit" an argument, or that are inconsistent with other Scripture). While the end result may not match the most widely held modern positions, popularity doesn't make any viewpoint right. The conclusion made in the book is the most consistent, logical, textually correct and natural understanding of the verses. This presentation of the Scriptures should be read by all Christians as a basis for understanding God's plan for making disciples.

Summary: A Classic Read on Baptism in the NT
Comment: I obtained this book while studying various texts in the Bible on baptism. I had been doing intense study on the doctrine of water baptism in the NT and had become very weary with my evangelical upbringing on baptism (that baptism is a mere ceremony do maybe three or four times a year depending on the size of the church).
This book is written very gracefully. You will not be attacked if you do not hold to baptism being essential to the forgiveness of sins but you will be challanged. Cottrell is a very skilled man in both the Greek text as well as sound biblical interpretation. It is not his desire to paint a "I am right, you are wrong" attitude but rather he will challange you to reconsider what you have believed and maybe even taught concerning baptism.
Study this book! But most of all, base your faith on what the Bible teaches and not on the traditions of men (Mark 7:1-8).

Summary: Cottrell's book is a must read on the subject of baptism
Comment: Once again, Cottrell shows his expertise in the field of doctrine and theology as he leads his readers through a careful exegesis of the biblical passages that speak of baptism. He gives convincing biblical evidence to the idea that baptism is a necessary part of the salvation process.
