CLIP: What About the Thief on the Cross?

What about the thief on the cross?In this clip from Episode 218 of The Hacka Podcast, Greg Hackathorn and Simeon Costa respond to one of the most common objections in the baptism conversation.If the thief wasn’t baptized, does that mean baptism isn’t necessary?Together, we walk through Luke 23, the timing of the Old Covenant vs the New Covenant, and why the thief’s experience took place before the death, resurrection, and outpouring of the Spirit in Acts 2.This isn’t about dismissing the story — it’s about understanding when it happened and how that affects how we interpret it today.If you’ve ever used (or heard) this argument, this clip will help you see it in context.
