50% off! The Second Adam and the New Birth M. F. Sadler book / paperback / $ 5.00 Publisher: Athanasius Press Item Code: 0-9753914-1-0

In this classic volume, nineteenth- century Reformed Anglican M.F. Sadler provides invaluable insight into the sacrament of Christian Baptism. Drawing from a great multitude of both Old and New Testament texts, as well as the work of the Church's greatest theologians (including Augustine, Anselm, Aquinas, Luther, Calvin, and Cranmer), Sadler demonstrates that orthodox Christian theology has traditionally recognized baptism as the basis of our union with Christ, the Second Adam. The product of this study is an impenetrable defense of infant baptism, and a brilliant exposition of the manner in which the Scriptures speak of the relationship between the Sacraments, the Church, and salvation. Now in publication for the first time in over a century, this work is here to challenge and inform an entirely new generation of churchmen and theologians.
