""On Baptism"" by Tertullian is a theological treatise that explores the significance and practice of baptism in early Christianity. Tertullian, a prominent North African theologian and apologist, wrote this work in the early third century AD as a response to the debates and controversies surrounding baptismal practices in his time.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which addresses a different aspect of baptism. Tertullian begins by discussing the importance of baptism as a sacrament of initiation into the Christian faith. He argues that baptism is necessary for salvation and that it is a symbol of the washing away of sins.Tertullian then goes on to describe the proper method of baptism, emphasizing the importance of immersion in water and the use of the Trinitarian formula. He also discusses the role of the Holy Spirit in baptism and the significance of the anointing with oil that often accompanies the rite.Throughout the book, Tertullian engages with various objections to baptism and offers responses to these criticisms. He also draws on biblical texts and early Christian traditions to support his arguments.Overall, ""On Baptism"" offers a valuable insight into the early Christian understanding of this important sacrament and provides a fascinating glimpse into the debates and controversies that shaped the development of Christian theology in its formative years.I know not whether any further point is mooted to bring baptism into controversy. Permit me to call to mind what I have omitted above, lest I seem to break off the train of impending thoughts in the middle. There is to us one, and but one, baptism; as well according to the Lord's gospel[11] as according to the apostle's letters, [12] inasmuch as he says, ""One God, and one baptism, and one church in the heavens.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
