#24 Is Baptism Necessary for Salvation?


Listen Later

Can you be saved without being baptized?

This came up in conversation with a friend recently. I found out they were attending a Church of Christ church. And I knew this about the Church of Christ—they teach that water baptism is actually necessary for salvation.

Maybe you have a friend who believes this. And maybe they believe it about infant baptism, or about immersion.

Either way, this is a question you need to know how to answer.

Maybe you’ve even wrestled with it yourself.

In this debate episode, you’ll learn:

  • Whom should be baptized?
  • Does baptism cause your sins to be forgiven?
  • Why does Peter say “Baptism saves you” in 1 Peter 3:20–22?
  • And is baptism necessary for salvation?
  • Then, you’ll hear my dialogue with the gentleman about baptism.
