Why Baptism? Book, Chapter, Verse EP. 249
from Excelling in Christ Hosted by Clarence Fell
In this episode, we take a straightforward dive into the biblical teaching on baptism, what it is, what it’s for, and why it matters. I’m not interested in tradition, denomination, or the latest theological trend, I just want to know what God says. Through passages like Acts 2:38, Romans 6:3-6, and Colossians 2:12, we explore how baptism is more than a symbol. It's God's appointed moment where forgiveness is extended, the blood of Christ is applied, and we are united with Him in His death, burial, and resurrection. We also tackle common objections, like the thief on the cross, and clarify why the timing and purpose of baptism still stand firm. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do believe the Bible speaks clearly. And if God said baptism is the place where sins are washed away, then I want to go there. No hype, no tradition, just book, chapter, and verse. If you're weary, seeking clarity, or just wanting to know what God wants from you, this one's for you. Let’s lay aside the noise and get back to the Word. Baptism: it’s God’s will, and that’s enough for me.
