JOŠ O KRSTU I KRŠTENJU.

In this article the author analyses critically some attempts in the Croatian language, in the discourse on the first sacrament, to differentiate between the term krst (the mysterious reality, sacrament of baptism) and the term krštenje (celebration or the ritual of the sacrament of baptism) and concludes that this is not necessary or even possible. The author holds that krštenje is a more appropriate term, while the term krst is not necessary in this context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
