Send us a textArnie, Fred and Glenn continue their discussion of why am I a member of the Church of Christ. We begin this episode by looking at a few passages that help us to determine where and when the Lord's Church would be established or started beginning in the Old Testament. We learn that it would be in what are described as the latter days and in Jerusalem. We move to the New Testament and talk about what both John the Baptizer and Jesus said when they expected the church or kingdom would come. We note that on Pentecost in Acts chapter 2, Peter quoted what Joel had prophesied about what would occur in the last days. We discuss a number of things that Acts chapter 2 reveals concerning Jesus and the Church that tells us exactly when and where the Lord's Church was established. We close out this episode by noting when, where and by whom the most prominent denominations were established. We encourage our listeners to examine the identifying factors of the Lord's Church and make changes if you find you are not associated with the Church that belongs to Jesus Christ. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.

The Great CommissionBaptized Into His NameBeing “The Baptized”

August 30, 2025Today's Reading: Introit for Pentecost 12 - Psalm 75:1-2, 6, 9; antiphon: Psalm 75:7Daily Lectionary: 1 Kings 12:20-13:5, 33-34; 1 Kings 14:1-16:28; 2 Corinthians 8:1-24“We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks, for your name is near.” (Psalm 75:1)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. Tomorrow's introit reminds us of this blessed reality: the Name of the Lord is near. In fact, it is so near, it is upon you!These are some awesome and particularly appropriate words for an introit—psalm verses for entering our Lord's sanctuary and being brought into His presence.You were given the ability to call on our holy and Triune God at your Baptism, when the Lord used your pastor to speak and wash you into new birth from above. In those joyous moments, the Name of the Lord came near as He placed His name upon you! “I baptize you in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” Now the name of the Lord is so near, it is on you. In you. At Baptism, you were blessed with the Gift of calling on Him in prayer. Praying, praising, and giving thanks. God brings you, His child, to talk with Him “as dear children ask their dear father.”The Word of the Lord continues bringing His name near. Your pastor preaches. In Bible Class, you are taught that Word, as His name comes near. The Word is spoken in conversations of encouragement among faithful family and friends, and that brings God's name near, too.Of course, the high point of every Lord's Day is when the Name of the Lord is near, coming with the holy and precious Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. Here is the greatest moment of the presence of God. The clearest, most felt and experienced nearness of God and His Name. With His own flesh and blood, Jesus brings the name of God in, with, and under Him to permeate you, bless you, and nourish you with His forgiving and saving presence. Where His name is, there He is to make you His own.So here we are, entering the sanctuary of the Holy Trinity, with His name washed onto us from Baptism and repeatedly placed on us with Word and Sacrament. With that holy name upon us, Jesus, who makes His name near, makes us worthy to enter His church building and receive Him yet again in Word and Sacrament, and we respond with giving thanks.We give thanks to you, O God; we give thanks, for your name is near. (Psalm 75:1)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Baptized into Your name, most holy, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I claim a place, though weak and lowly, Among Your saints, Your chosen host. Buried with Christ and dead to sin, Your Spirit now shall live within. (LSB 590:1)Rev. Richard Heinz, pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church, Lowell, IN.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Jonathan Lackey is the pastor at Grace Lutheran Church, Vine Grove, KY.Study the early Church Fathers, Scripture, and Christian history alongside FLAME's conversational voice to see for yourself why their teachings from Scripture are important to study, and live out, today.

Welcome to the Grace in Focus podcast. Today, Bob Wilkin and Ken Yates are discussing a famous passage used (wrongly) to promote Baptismal Regeneration. Why is this passage in the Bible and how should we understand it? Please listen and never miss an episode of the Grace in Focus Podcast!

Discussions about baptism often focus on what we are baptized with—how much water and how it's to be applied. Today, Sinclair Ferguson encourages us to consider what we are baptized into—and how that affects our identity.

#21 in our series, "The Book of Romans: A Theology of Hope"

Our Epistle reading today is from Acts 5. We find a description of the life of the newborn Church in Jerusalem as they would meet at Solomon's Porch in the Temple. The description is simple. His people gathered with the Apostles. And through the Apostles, Jesus continued the same ministry for the benefit and salvation of all that He did as He walked the earth. Jesus taught His disciples to pray by giving them the Our Father. In that prayer, He has us pray His will that "His Kingdom would come and His will would be done on earth as it is in heaven." It was always in the mind and desire of Christ our God that His Kingdom be experienced by all who are Baptized into Him. Today we explore this wondrous reality.

Rebaptism has been a discussion since before the Reformation where the Anabaptists openly rejected the Roman Catholic baptism and said that because they worshipped a false god, a Catholic who professed faith had to be baptized “again” - though the Anabaptists would say they were being baptized for the first time. Since then, especially with easy-believism - raise your hand, pray a prayer and you're saved - many people who made such “professions of faith” earlier in their life have realized that they had no idea who God was when they were baptized as they were complete slaves to sin and continued to walk in that path. The Bible is very clear that there is one baptism, so should people in such a situation be baptized?In this episode, we want to look at what is commonly referred to as “rebaptism.” While the Anabaptists were a heretical group with no real direct connection to modern Reformed Baptists, it doesn't mean that their position on a particular topic was wrong. One of the things that gets overlooked with baptism is that while Baptism is more than just an outward sign of an individual's inward faith, God still says that faith is required to please Him and that without faith, pleasing Him is impossible. When you consider a Catholic baptism, where is there any faith present? The same can be said for many evangelical services. The other thing that comes up quite frequently is the idea that baptism requires some sort of ability to determine if the person is “really saved”, with many jokes being made about “regeneration goggles”. We agree completely that it is impossible to tell if someone is truly regenerate. But what is so often overlooked is that Scripture does tell us how to identify a lack of faith. Those who walk in the flesh, who are slaves to sin, should not be thought of as brothers. The church should not make it a practice to recognize known acts of faithlessness. The church should not tell people that God has entered into a covenant with them when they have every reason to believe that is not true. False conversions and false baptisms are real, and “regeneration goggles” are not required. At the same time, no one should be baptized because of how they feel. A testimony is not a feeling, and God desires to be worshipped in spirit and in truth. Baptism should always be a serious event, and not performed lightly. Please join us as we discuss this important but controversial topic.Thumbnail image by Stephanie Jones on Flickr under CC BY-NC-SA 2.0slagheap on Flickr under CC BY-NC-SA 2.0Timecodes00:00:00 One Baptism00:09:25 The Meaning of Baptism00:24:48 Rejecting Other Churches00:27:44 Calvin on Baptists00:42:44 Regeneration Goggles00:56:28 Efficacy of Baptism01:00:00 Does Baptism Save?01:02:46 When to RebaptizeProduction of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

In this exploration of salvation, we delve into the heart of our faith - the transformative power of God's grace through Jesus Christ. The central message revolves around Ephesians 2:8-10, reminding us that salvation is a gift from God, not something we can earn through our own efforts. This foundational truth challenges us to examine our understanding of baptism and its role in our spiritual journey. While baptism is an important act of obedience and public declaration of faith, it's crucial to remember that our salvation comes through faith alone in Christ alone. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to consider our own faith journey. Have we placed our trust fully in Christ's finished work on the cross? Are we living out our faith in obedience, including following through with baptism if we haven't already? This message invites us to deepen our relationship with God, resting in the assurance of His grace while also responding in faithful obedience.

In this exhortation, Pastor Jonathan Parnell shares about the ancient practice of water baptism and why it is so important for believers to be baptized today. If you are a Christian and not yet baptized, you need to get baptized.

Teaching on Mark 1:9-11

Send us a textThe question reverberates through Christian history: Why would a sinless Savior need baptism? Mitchell tackles this profound theological mystery with clarity and depth in this illuminating episode of the Pure Faith Podcast.Diving into the baptism of Jesus recorded in Matthew 3:13-17, Mitchell unpacks three compelling reasons behind this pivotal moment. First, it marked the official launch of Jesus's public ministry at age 30, when Jewish tradition allowed him to formally take on disciples as a rabbi. While Jesus had been discussing Scripture since childhood (as seen during his temple visit at age 12), this moment represented his official step into public teaching.Second, this sacred moment created the divine stage for the Holy Spirit's descent and God's thunderous proclamation: "This is my Son, with whom I am well pleased." This heavenly endorsement announced Jesus's identity to all present—and perhaps even alerted dark forces to the Messiah's arrival, though they couldn't comprehend how his eventual death would fulfill God's redemptive plan.Most poignantly, Jesus's baptism demonstrated his willingness to identify with sinners despite his own sinlessness. This wasn't about elevating humanity to his level but about Jesus descending to ours—the first step in his journey toward taking on our sin at Calvary. Mitchell brilliantly connects this to baptism's consistent biblical meaning of death, burial, and resurrection, tracing this pattern through Noah's flood, the Red Sea crossing, and the Jordan River.Mitchell closes with powerful personal insights, sharing his own adult baptism story despite being baptized as an infant, and urging believers not to delay baptism until they've "cleaned up their lives." The message resonates with both new and seasoned believers: just as Jesus began his ministry with baptism, so should we begin our faith journey—not after achieving perfection, but precisely because we need the transformative power baptism represents.Support the showSupport our ministryCheck us out at purefaithliving.comContact us at purefaithliving.com/contactFollow us on twitter @purefaithlivingFollow us on Facebook at Pure Faith Podcast
