To Baptize or Not to Baptize, That Is the Question!
Scripture: Matthew 3.13-17
Description: The baptism of Jesus Christ in the gospels has been a theological conundrum for at least two millenia.

For insight into the role and purpose of baptism, we turn to Matthew's gospel and Jesus' curious insistence on getting wet.
