Episode notes

A Baptist comes to Galatians and Jeremiah 31 thinking a contrast between the new covenant and the Abrahamic covenant. Reformed people say there is no new covenant contrast with the Abrahamic. Christ didn't do away with the covenant, you know, we would say he fulfilled it. And so I don't discount those verses as being something that we should just do away with.

From his own baptism by John the Baptist to his last commission to his followers to go and make disciples from all nations, Jesus’s ministry is marked by this sacrament. But what does it mean? What are its biblical origins? And who should receive it? In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland discuss the traditional Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Baptist, and Reformed views on the sacrament of baptism.
