Piper says very clearly that he (and his church) believes baptism is for believers only and by immersions. He just does not see that as something that should keep people from fellowshipping together in the church.

So far, it is a really good, hard-hitting book. It reminds me a little of MacArthur's The Gospel According to Jesus or Faith Works: The Gospel According to the Apostles.

Same here-those books chased me away from the church I had been attending.
