Baptism - Article IX of the Augsburg Confession
Manage episode 344063331 series 3244823
“How can material things give spiritual blessings?”
The Lutheran Reformers maintained the biblical truth that, through the waters of baptism, God grants forgiveness, new life, and salvation.
But the power to grant such amazing gifts doesn’t come from the water – but God’s Word.
The Apostle Paul (in Ephesians 4:6) connects the same Word of God spoken at the creation of the heavens and earth with the same Word of God spoken at the creation of faith in hearts of people.
And that’s the same Word of God spoken at the waters of Christian baptism.
In this episode of The Manna Podcast, Jacob Lewis and Sam Jeske jump into Article IX of the Augsburg Confession on Baptism.
