After a short conversation with him, I agreed with the colporteur, and remarked that the Session would meet in a few minutes, and suggested that he should present himself for admission into the church.

As I subsequently learned, every influence had been exerted on him to convince him that immersion is baptism. What the people want is, not a learned dissertation on the classic meaning of words in a ...
