Later came St Augustine with a dif ferent proposition, which swppt everv rhlnc before It. FIls claim was more nearly thut of the HnptNtn. that only the Cburrb would be saved from eter nal torture nnd thnt baptism n the d'or Into the Church. Thereafter In fant Immersion became popular. Iater nur Roman Catholic friends declared Immersion unnecessary that a few drops nf water would be equally efficacious as protection against the fires of eternal torture.

"Jor.n'a Baptism Not For Us Repudiating all the theories of the Dark Apes. (Jod's people should return to the Instructions given by toe Lord and the Apostles. A cureful examina tion s bows not a single reference to in fant baptism In the New Testament. On the contrary, only believers were Instructed to be baptized. Two baptisms are noted. "John's Baptism" nnd Christ's. The first was for the remission of sins nnd was ap plicable to all .lews. Ity It such Jews as had been living in open sin re nounced the sin. and returned to har mony with Cod. under the Law Cove nant. Such as thus sincerely returned to Moses were ready to accept Christ as the antitype and by faith were transferred from Moses to Christ from the house of servants to the house of sons. (Tleb. ill, 5. B.) These at Pentecost became really, ofliclnlly recognized as the Church of Christ. Sunei,uemly (.entiles were Invited to be baptized Into membership In the Rody of Christ, the Church. "John's Baptism" was not preached to them because they did not belong to the holy nation which orlplnnlly was "bap tized into Moses In the sea nnd cloud." The ('.entiles, on (he contrary, were aliens, stranirers. to the commonwealth of Israel. They were not to come Into Christ, through Moses, hut to be bap tized directly Into Christ. Gentiles Baptized Into Chritt The true theory of Baptism does not exclude saintly Methodists, rresuy teriiuis, CongreatlonaSiKts, I.urheran.
