To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the case of Cornelius and his neighbors in Cesarea, (Acts 10: 47,) we are told that Peter 100 MODE OF BAPTTSH, preached at his house, and " many" were present to hear him. And it appears that they were all converted. " The Holy Ghost fell on them." Now to signify this falling of the Holy Ghost on them, our Baptist brethren say, they must have been immersed into water. But Peter in- timates no such thing. He does not appear to see any water there; and so he says, " Can any man forbid water, t...hat these should not be bap- tized?'' In plain English phrase, "Will some one be kind enqugh to bring in some water, that these may be baptized V^ Surely no Baptist minister would say, on such an occasion, " Can any man forbid water?" &c. If immersion had been the mode, Peter would have said, as a Bap- tist would now say, " Can any man forbid us to go out to the river or pond, that these may be immersed ?" But Peter said just what any Con- gregational, or Presbyterian, or Methodist min- ister, in the same circumstances, might say, with the strictest propriety.
