Session Decides Position on Re-Baptism
Session decided that it's position on re-baptism will be as follows:
"That because of the difficulty of arriving at precise theological conclusions on this matter, and because the general disagreements that exist among Christians, and because "whatever is not of faith is sin", it is our conviction that these decisions should be left the conscience of each individual believer as he seeks the wisdom of scripture and the counsel of the brethren. The session will never agree to rebaptize a person who has been previously baptized in a faithful, evangelical church. Ordinarily it will not say that individuals from other backgrounds must be rebaptized, and it will agree to baptize individuals from apostate churches who persistently seek baptism."
