Episode notes
Get Baptized Promptly After Repentance
- Do get baptized once you genuinely repent and turn to God since it's the commanded and normal response.
- Gregg allows that if someone truly repents but wasn't told about baptism, they are still saved, though subnormal.
Baptism Saves As Part Of The Conversion Event
- 1 Peter 3:20–21 saying 'baptism now saves us' is contextual, referring to the whole conversion event.
- Gregg stresses Christ saves, rituals don't; baptism identifies obedience within the conversion moment.
Tell People You're Praying To Encourage Them
- Tell people you're praying for them when it will encourage them or show you're carrying their concerns.
- Gregg notes Paul sometimes told churches he prayed to reassure them he hadn't forgotten them, not to seek praise.
