Baptist Perspective

As we conclude our study of the mode of baptism, we will see from meaning and use of the Greek words for immersion, sprinkling, and pouring are not synonymous. Scripture shows the Lord using these three words together in the same context and it is obvious that they are not identical. Also, the use of prepositions with the Greek word for baptism clearly teaches that baptism is performed “in water” and not “with water.”

Today we begin considering who is the proper subject or candidate for baptism. In this study, we find that a major difference between Baptists and Reformers is that the Reformers include infants whereas Baptists do not. This podcast covers how the Greek words for baptism are used in connection with the rite of baptism in the gospels.
