In this series of letters, Samuel Worcester engages in a lively debate with Thomas Baldwin, a prominent Baptist minister, over the meaning and importance of baptism. Worcester, a Calvinist and a Congregationalist, challenges Baldwin's views on the subject, criticizing him for dividing the church and promoting a narrow and sectarian understanding of faith. With clarity and wit, Worcester defends a more inclusive and ecumenical approach to the Christian faith, emphasizing the centrality of love and charity over doctrinal disputes.
