The Shaping of the Reformed Baptismal Rite in the Sixteenth Century

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. This meticulously researched book recounts how the early sixteenth-century Reformers steering a course between the old Latin rites on the one hand and the Anabaptist movement on the other developed a baptismal service that they understood to be reformed according to Scripture. Hughes Oliphant Old''s study shows the Reformed baptismal rite to be well thought out pastorally sensitive and theologically profound.
