Art/Literary - Religion / baptism by immersion vs. sprinkling
English term or phrase: make out a case in favor of
We cannot but regret, therefore, that Mr. E should have been guilty of so many gross and glaring blunders in his endeavor to ***make out a case in favor of*** sprinkling. [...] We have rarely met, for example, with a more weak and fanciful piece of reasoning, than that by which Mr. E would persuade us that there is no allusion to the mode by immersion, in the expression 'buried with him in baptism'.
