Lectures on Baptism and Communion

"Lectures on Baptism and Communion" presents a detailed exploration of two central sacraments of the Christian faith. Authored by Thomas Leslie Davidson and John Wood, this work delves into the theological and historical significance of baptism, particularly infant baptism (Pedobaptism), and the Lord's Supper, also known as communion or the Eucharist. The lectures discuss various aspects of these rites, including open and close communion practices, and draw upon scriptural references from the Septuagint and the New Testament.

The authors examine the views of historical figures such as Justin Martyr, Tertullian, and Pelagius, as well as the decrees of the Council of Carthage, providing a comprehensive overview of the theological debates surrounding these practices. This book offers valuable insights into the doctrines and practices of baptism and communion, making it an essential resource for theologians, historians, and anyone interested in the historical and theological dimensions of Christian sacraments.
