Summary:The Drama Of Decision will prove invaluable and challenging to anyone who has ever asked the question: What is the significance of baptism? Convinced that "students of the Bible have overlooked the possibility that there is a common theme running through the baptismal texts of the New Testament," Dr. Brooks carefully examines the relevant passages in order to articulate a clear, succint understanding of the ritual of baptism that accurately reflects the multifaceted aspects of the biblical material - suggesting that there is a common meaning for baptism throughout the New Testament.
