Along with its importance they also go further by promoting the believer’s baptism over infant baptism. They begin by attacking the Christian claim found among many that baptism is a trivial issue. They quickly negate this statement with an alternate point of view, that Christians who suffered persecution and martyrdom did not believe it to be so. Summary Placing aside the foreword and introduction, there are ten chapters or sections to this book.
Through the divinity and humanity of the Christ, Christians and believers share the stories through word of mouth. The Son of God is also evident from the sacred texts of the Gospel testimonies which include the wonders and recoveries on people achieved by Jesus, and from the witness to his death, resurrection and ascension into heaven by his followers and other eyewitnesses. The beliefs of the divinity recognise his relationship to God as Son. Jesus’s divinity showed Jesus’ role to be the salvation of humanity and to resurrect and rise to defeat death. In the Gospel of John 1:14 “The Word became
He and his wife Shawn have three children: Brennan, Emma, and Eve. Content Summary Chapter 1: Mentoring in the First Century As the title of the chapter states, this first chapter gives us a look at mentors in the first century that are biblical examples. The writer points out that even though “making disciples” is only found a few times in the New Testament, mentorship or discipleship is ramped throughout the bible.

The issue of baptism plays on the missionary command of Matthew 28:19 "Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit" and the 4 citations of Acts where the Baptism is administered in the "Name of Jesus." It is interesting to address the issue of Christian baptism as scholars, from a point of view exegetical, theological and historical, define it. The believer's life is characterized by the fact that receives salvation in Jesus Christ. Baptism is part of this process of salvation, and not merely in a ritual and symbolic, but something much deeper, as it has to do with the conversion and the choices you make in the Christian follow Christ.
