Help with regenerative Baptism

[hoser]

Could someone kindly give me some web sites with good information regarding the support of regenerative baptism? I am looking more for a scriptural defense of it rather than a Church fathers take on it, though both would help.

Thanks!

The water in baptism regenerates no one. Rather it is God’s grace and forgiveness that it is given through the sacrament of baptism that does.

Hi Oser,

What do you mean by “regenerative baptism”?

Verbum

Here is a tract from Catholic Answers. Although it does have the Fathers of the Church, in the beginning and within the writings of the Fathers, Scripture is cited.

Ezekiel 36:25-27

25 I will sprinkle clean water upon you, and you shall be clean from all your uncleannesses, and from all your idols I will cleanse you. 26 A new heart I will give you, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will take out of your flesh the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to observe my ordinances
