The Ohio Independent Baptist, January 1961

January, 1961 BOOK R EVIEWS YOUR BAPTI M I IMPORTANT, by Stanley Edwin Anderson; 192 pp., 51. ~ 5. ordered from author, 3124 W. Washington Blvd., Chicago 12, Ill. It is a pleasure for the editor to· review this book by a former semi nary class– mate. H e now is head of the Correspond– ence Department at Northern Baptist The– ological Seminary. That he and his de– partment stand for orthodoxy as well as for scholarship is evident. H e even calls himself a "fundamentalist." He covers every verse in the New Testa– ment that deals with baptism or which has been so interpreted, as John 3: 5. Natural– ly in 192 pages he is not as thorough as the famous Carson, but his book is far more readable. H e gives Scriptural and logical answers to all the more important pedo-bapti st arguments still current today -briefly and pointedly. For tha t reason lay people and converts will enjoy the book as well as ministers. Yet it is thorough and well documented for ministers, a nd pre– sents several outlines for further study on some matters on which even Baptists do not agree. We feel every minister ought to order and read this book. They wi ll not all agree on his teachings about the Church and Closed Communion. H e comes close to our Lankmark brethren along those lines, but is miles away from them in spirit. H e is kindly, where they are often harsh . So read it, preacher, before you condemn it; and then judge for yourself whether you want your converts to read it. THE DOORWAY TO HEAVEN, by Inez Kemper; 153 pp., $2.50, Baker Book House, Grand Rapids 6, Mich. Here are 150 dai ly devotions that make an excellent gift at any time of year. Miss Kemper has culled the most useable poems of such authors as Anne Johnson Flint, Martha Snell Nicholson, and of many oth– er modern Bible-believi ng poets, as well as the pithy devotional say ings of famous preachers and authors, and to add variety has interspersed pages that deal with sal– vation, security, Christian l ivi ng, etc. These brief offerings out of her own study and meditation will reward any one who goes through them day by day or more quickly.
