About this ebook

This work aims to compare the practice of baptizing as mentioned in the Prayer Book with the Bible. Through this text, the 19th-century Irish Anglican priest Edward Hoare presented his views on baptism and listed the contrast in how baptism is taught in these two different holy books. It's written in language easily comprehensible by the ordinary reader that helps get a clear idea of the subject.
