By ‘sacramental’ I mean the idea that grace is actually conveyed by ministerial use of means – water and the like. Many Reformed teachers, past and present, including Martin Luther, John Calvin, the men of the Westminster Confession, David J.Engelsma, the advocates of the Federal Vision, N.T.Wright of the New Perspective, Daniel R.Hyde, and Baptist Sacramentalists, all hold to, or have held to, baptismal regeneration. |
