297 - Baptism and the Covenants
from Christian Formation
In this episode, we explore the covenantal argument for baptism. Throughout Scripture, God makes covenants with His people, and baptism is often viewed as the sign of initiation into that covenant relationship. But how do these two ideas connect? How does a biblical understanding of God’s covenants shape the way we think about baptism? We’ll argue that, based on our relationship with God under the new covenant, baptism should be administered only to those who profess faith in Christ.
