In the Name of Our Lord

Theology

“The location and interrelationship of various biblical doctrines is a needful aspect of study in the realm of theological reflection. Watson has produced a study brimming with such considerations, dealing specifically with catechesis, baptism, and entrance into the covenant community of the local church. Sweeping in scope, the author engages readers with a working taxonomy of various positions on the interrelationship of these three ecclesiological categories. This work will offer clarity on the kinds of positions that are taken within various church traditions, showcasing the theological underpinnings of such practical matters. Such reflection will be of great benefit to the church at large, as the author compels us to think theologically about these practices.”

Who Can Take the Lord’s Supper?

Theology

“The relationship of baptism and the Lord’s Supper is of great theological importance, and one’s theological understanding also has immediate application in the life of the local church. . . . Still, seemingly little consideration is taken in many contemporary churches. . . . Vandiver’s book, therefore, is of immense importance. Here one finds a well-articulated historical survey of the ordinances, sound biblical analysis, fitting theological synthesis, and pertinent applications within the life of the church. Pastors and scholars alike would do well to engage with the argument represented here and take up the call to a clear and consistent approach to the ordinances.”
