INSIGHT

Baptism and Salvation

  • Some Christians argue Romans 10:8-13 supports "faith alone" salvation, excluding baptism.
  • Karlo Broussard counters that Paul elsewhere links baptism to salvation and justification.
INSIGHT

Sola Scriptura and Temptation

  • Some Protestants cite Jesus' use of Scripture during temptation as proof of Sola Scriptura.
  • Broussard argues this is fallacious; using Scripture doesn't make it the sole authority.
INSIGHT

Selective Scripture Use

  • Jesus only referenced parts of Deuteronomy during his temptation.
  • We cannot derive the principle of Sola Scriptura from a few select passages.
