In the Introduction to his book the Author says:—

"There is much conflict of opinion among teachers in regard to Baptism. Among the disputed points are the significance of Baptism, the mode of administering it, and the persons who are its proper subjects. The existence of this conflict is, by many teachers, made an excuse for avoiding the whole subject. But it furnishes, on the contrary, a strong reason why every believer should settle the matter for himself."
