Description: Since its beginning, the professing church has been divided over the practice of water baptism. There has never been any true consensus on such important matters as the purpose for its administration, to whom it should be administered, by whom it should be administered, when it should be administered, how it should be administered, etc. For a ceremony of such seeming importance this is remarkable. Doesn't the Word of God provide plain instructions regarding these things as they relate to the water baptism being practiced by the Church today? No, it doesn't! Given this, a reasonable mind might ask "Is water baptism really necessary today?" This book provides scripture-based reasons why water baptism is not necessary for either salvation or obedience!
