Examination of Gorham case over baptism doctrine and church authority
The High Court reviews the Gorham dispute over his suitability for a benefice after the bishop refused to institute him amid doubts about his baptismal views. The case examines whether the Church of England's doctrine supports infant baptism as conferring membership in Christ, and how the examination was conducted and interpreted in court.
