Two New Books by Charles Porterfield Krauth

Just and Sinner has just released two new volumes of the writings of the great American Lutheran theologian Charles Porterfield Krauth.

Holy Baptism: Two Writings on the Subject
No doctrine differentiates Confessional Lutherans from the broader Protestant world more than the conviction that regeneration comes through baptism. This volume consists of two treatises by Charles Porterfield Krauth on the subject.

The fist work is “Infant Baptism and Infant Salvation in the Calvinistic System.” Through an extensive look at Reformed divines, Charles Krauth demonstrates that Reformed theology has no grounds for assurance that one’s baptized children are saved. He shows that the Reformed tradition has a consistent belief in infant damnation, whereas the Lutheran reformation gives assurance to parents of baptized children.

The second treatise, “Baptism: The Doctrine Set Forth in Holy Scripture and Taught in the Evangelical Lutheran Church,” is a systematic study of the Lutheran view of baptism in contrast to other perspectives.

The Augsburg Confession

LITERALLY TRANSLATED FROM THE ORIGINAL LATIN WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT ADDITIONS OF THE GERMAN TEXT INCORPORATED: TOGETHER WITH THE GENERAL CREEDS; and AN INTRODUCTION, AND NOTES
The Augsburg Confession is the foundational confession for the Lutheran faith. Written in 1530, this document continues to define what Lutherans believe in opposition to other branches of the church.

This volume includes Charles Porterfield Krauth’s translation of the Augsburg Confession, along with an extensive historical and theological introduction. At the end of the volume, Krauth includes his comments on the Confession, and corrects some common misunderstandings of its teaching.

This edition has been sightly modified so that it is easier for the modern reader.
