Free Stuff Fridays (Ligonier and Reformation Trust)

This week the blog has been sponsored by Ligonier and Reformation Trust.

What is baptism? Is it necessary for salvation? Who should be baptized, and how should we baptize them? In his new book, Baptism: Answers to Common Questions, Guy Richard tackles these questions and more. As he searches the Scriptures, he provides needed clarity on this topic and encourages us to deal graciously with our brothers and sisters in Christ even when we disagree. Ten Free Stuff Fridays winners will receive the paperback edition from Ligonier Ministries and Reformation Trust. Also, all Challies readers can download R.C. Sproul’s Crucial Questions ebook What Is Baptism? for free (available in EPUB and MOBI formats).
