Other Groups Accused of Teaching Baptismal Regeneration
Within North American Protestantism, the subject has been debated. In a written debate with E. Calvin Beisner of the Evangelical Free Church of America, Jim R. Everett defended what he saw as the teaching of the Church of Christ on baptismal regeneration in a series of articles that appeared in The Preceptor beginning in May 1983. Douglas A. Foster denies this contention regarding the Restoration Movement, a contention denied also by other representatives of the movement. Gregory A, Boyd says that Oneness Pentecostals teach what he calls baptismal regeneration. The publication Vantage Point attributes what it calls baptismal regeneration to "Roman Catholicism, Seventh-day Adventism, Mormonism, United Pentecostalism (and other Oneness churches), most Churches of Christ and Eastern Orthodoxy".

And the man who carries this mirror in his pack will be accused by you of being immoral! His mirror shews [sic] the mire, and you blame the mirror! Rather blame that high road upon which the puddle lies, still more the inspector of roads who allows the water to gather and the puddle to form.”
