Word, Water, and Spirit: A Reformed Perspective on Baptism

Fesko, J.V.

Grand Rapids, MI: Reformation Heritage Books, 2010

Word, Water, and Spirit provides a historical, biblical, and systematic view of baptism. It is a resource that not only teaches but also responds to critiques against paedobaptism. For example, if someone challenges our practice based on historical evidence, this book will show, from the Patristic era through the medieval period and into modern times, that our faith is rooted in history because it is based on Scripture. That foundation is illuminated by the concept of the New Creation and the means of grace that baptism provides.
