Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book aims to clarify the uncertainties surrounding the sacrament of baptism, particularly regarding its mode or form. The author thoroughly examines the relevant biblical teachings, tracing the historical and linguistic development of the term "baptize." By analyzing the original Greek word and its usage in both Jewish and Christian contexts, the book sheds light on the true meaning of baptism. It delves into early Christian practices and beliefs, exploring how immersion became the preferred mode and the subsequent rise of the doctrine of baptismal regeneration. The book challenges certain perspectives on the subject, arguing for a more nuanced understanding of baptism as a purifying act rather than solely a form of immersion. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive analysis of the baptism debate, providing insights into its historical, theological, and practical implications. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

From the cover: Professor W F Grimes excavated the site between 1952 and 1954 on behalf of the Roman and Mediaeval London Excavation Council in advance of post-war development in the City of London. The aim was to obtain information about the Walbrook valley, and the discovery of a well preserved Roman building was unexpected. This report provides a full record of the stratigraphic and structural evidence from the site, a catalogue of the finds, and a discussion of the evidence from the Walbrook valley at the Bucklesbury House site, including the temple.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. Both items are in good condition, and each folded once. The second carries the merest trace of grey paper from a mount at one corner. ONE: To E. B. Nicholson, 3 November 1881. 2pp, 12mo. On first leaf of bifolium. Nicholson's letter has been forwarded to him 'here in my country house, where I am for a few days'. It is out of his power 'to promise any assistance to your proposed Magazine. I write very little for the press, having very scanty leisure - and my time being already forestalled by engagements which will occupy whatever leisure I can spare for literature'. TWO: To 'Mr. Lowe'. 2pp, 12mo. Lowe had presumably published his opinion with regard to the death of Princess Mary of Teck's fiancé Prince Albert Victor. 'I cannot refrain from thanking for [sic] your admirable note last note [sic] on the vulgar & heartless proposition to make a purse for the Princess Mary as a solatium for her bereavement. What are we coming to, that any journal pretending to represent British feeling & opinion should have given place in their columns to such a proposition! I am sure that numberless people who are not dead to the instincts of good feeling will thank you for what you said.' He knows that some of those who obtained subscriptions 'for her wedding gifts' welcomed Lowe's words 'with the warmest feeling'. He ends: 'In many cases all the subscriptions have already been returned to the donor.' E. B. Nicholson. 3 November 1881. On letterhead of Brintysilio, near Llangollen.

The three items are in good condition, lightly aged, the first with traces of tape from mount around edges of its second leaf. ONE: To [Edward John] Broadfield (1831-1913) of Manchester, 26 May 1885. 3pp, 12mo. Bifolium. He begins by explaining that they are in Brighton for Lady Martin's health: 'She still suffers much, but is better since we came here rather more than a fortnight since.' He asks whether it was 'the Letter on "Imogen" that was addressed to Miss Swanwick'. Two days before he wrote to Broadfield at the Manchester Guardian office, 'to say that the volume containing the whole of Lady Methuen's letters was to be published this week, & expressing a hope that you would review it for the Examiner. It has had every justice done to it in externals, & I think you will say it is a very elegant volume.' Martin hopes it may 'find favour with Shakespearean scholars'. TWO: To Moo.…
