Baptism Didn’t Save You. It Drafted You.

from Sergio DeSoto The Counterintuitive Podcast Hosted by Sergio DeSoto

What if baptism was never meant to save you—but to record a repentance that’s already real? In this extended episode, we recover immersion as Scripture presents it: a humble act of washing that embodied repentance, readiness, and covenant allegiance. We take a deep look at the thief on the cross—not as a loophole, but as a model of genuine turning—and then trace how post-Nicene institutional Christianity layered men’s doctrines and systems over a simple covenant sign. If baptism has ever felt like a gate instead of a declaration, this episode will reset the frame. This is a public episode.
