We have released a new video lesson on the New Testament Baptism Studies page that speaks to the sinful nature of man, the saving blood of Christ, and baptism. It is titled "The Oneness of Christ' blood and Baptism."
This lesson looks at the relationship of these important topics of Gods Word to help us understand how we are dead in sin before God, the saving power of the shed blood of Christ and where baptism fits in all of this. Here are some previews of the lesson:
"I’m dead because when I open the bible, its boring. I close it and I turn on the Nascar race or a Reality Show or something. That’s why I’m dead because I don’t see Jesus like I need to see him. The most interesting person to ingratiate the stage of human events to me is the most boring person ever! That’s why we are dead."
"You can read an entire book on systematic theology and not know God. That’s not the way you come to the knowledge of God. In his wisdom he decided it would be that way – But it pleased God for the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. The folly of what we preach is tied to Jesus Christ and the cross."
"What does this have to do with baptism? It has EVERYTHING to do with baptism. Because you’re not baptized to cultivate a desire for Christ. You’re baptized because you deserted Christ. And if not, you go into the water a sinner, and you come up a sinner, the only difference is your soaking wet."
