More Critics of the Doctrine of Baptismal Regeneration Admitting it was Unanimously Taught by Early Christians

  

Since the earliest times it was believed that baptism washes away sins and that one should lead a sinless life after baptism. (Hendrick F. Stander and Johannes P. Louw, Baptism in the Early Church [rev ed.; Leeds: Reformation Today Trust, 2004], 39)

 

It is noteworthy that the Christian tombstone inscriptions use various terms referring to baptism, such as ‘being made a believer’ or merely ‘believer’ or even ‘died in peace’, ‘received grace’, ‘became a neophyte’, etc. (Hendrick F. Stander and Johannes P. Louw, Baptism in the Early Church [rev ed.; Leeds: Reformation Today Trust, 2004], 91)
