Was the Thief on the cross the Exception or the Rule?

from The Least of These Podcast with Jayni Jackson · host Jayni Jackson

In this video, we’re digging into one of the most debated questions in Christianity: is the thief on the cross the rule or the exception when it comes to salvation? Joe Heschmeyer says his story is off topic in debates about baptism, but I’m going to show you why it’s not just relevant—it’s essential. Join me as we explore the thief’s faith, what the Bible and early church fathers say, and why this story proves that faith alone is the unbreakable rule of salvation. Stick around because I’ll also be tackling the question “Is baptism necessary for salvation?” in a follow-up video. Let’s dive in!
