"Baptism as taught in the Bible and the Prayer Book" by Edward Hoare is a study that looks closely at the idea of baptism using the Bible and the Anglican Prayer Book. It mainly discusses the meaning of baptism and the disputes about this holy act. The book deals with the topic of baptism, especially how it renews someone's spirit and its importance in Christianity. Hoare studies baptism from two angles: what the Bible says about the grace connected to this act and what the Prayer Book teaches. Hoare makes a point that it is a sign of being spiritually connected to Jesus, causing important changes in a believer. He says being spiritually changed, including forgiving sins, is viewed differently among Christians, which leads to disagreements about what this special act means and how well it works. Hoare argues that, while baptism is a visible sign, its spiritual power relies on the person’s faith, matching both Bible teachings and the Church of England's rules.
