I was recently told that the doctrine of Scripture Alone causes divisions among Protestants on issues that are important in a person's salvation, particularly as it pertains to baptism. Well, I have found that the MP3s for the White/Shishko debate on the issue of Baptism are free here.
James White defends and explains the Baptist position on Believer's Baptism while Bill Shishko defends and explains Paedo-Baptism (baptizing infants) from a Reformed Presbyterian perspective. Both approach the debate from a Covenantal perspective
So many Protestants seem to have no idea that there are people, who differ on such issues and yet are so united on the Doctrines of Grace, are able to treat each other as Christian brothers. Quite some time ago, Pastor Lynne Smith explained to me that Presbyterians and Baptists are closer than most think and are probably the last two great allies on the Doctrines of Grace and taking Sola Scriptura seriously.
Listen to the debate and you will find that can't help but learn something.
