Untersuchungen zum christlichen Glauben in einer saekularen Welt – serie

This book initiates a thorough analysis of baptism in the theology of Karl Barth, particularly how he initially stated his understanding and later modified. His theological context and methodology are analysed from its biblical roots to its relevancy for the key question of the New Testament teaching of Christian baptism and its relevancy for current ecumenical discussion, especially as it is evolved in the Commission on Faith and Order of the World Council of Churches.
