Brother Jack's careful biblical analysis and gracious examination of the competing doctrines surrounding baptism are an absolute MUST for any member of a restoration movement church who would like to be able to clearly articulate a biblical doctrine of baptism. He examines the competing theories without simply summarizing all false theories and spending too much time refuting each one. The balance of deeply examining the biblical doctrine of baptism and graciously criticizing the most popular competing views make this course well worth the time and money.
