Baptism is not a divine insurance policy | Rev. Kevin Cable

12 December 2021 - Third Sunday of Advent - After no Israelite prophets for more than 400 years, John the Baptist's appearance heralded the coming of the Messiah. Many went out to the wilderness to drink in John's words and be baptized by him, but John called out those who came with selfish and shallow intensions. Rev. Kevin Cable, the rector of the Anglican Church of St. Peter in Jaffa, echoes John's message and reminds us that salvation is not inherited, baptism isn't a divine insurance policy, and we prove our repentance by our good works.
