\"Baptism
Righteousness is by faith.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Well, we are on our eighth podcast and it will be a very short one, examining the scriptures presented in that article at GotQuestions.org<\/a>. it\u2019s Philippians 3:9, let\u2019s read it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philippians 3:9
\u2026not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ \u2013 the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evangelical argument presents this scripture and says, \u201cSee, righteousness is achieved through faith, not baptism.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No argument here. Righteousness is achieved through faith in Christ. That\u2019s what this scripture says. Don\u2019t add baptism on to it. Don\u2019t build a straw man then beat him up. Don\u2019t say this scripture is about baptism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this scripture has nothing to do with baptism, it does talk about the old Jewish Law. Using this particular passage as an argument against baptism, we must employ the fifth and rarely used error of comparing baptism to circumcision or to the law. We must claim that baptism is some sort of ritual or sacrament when the New Testament is devoid of all such rituals and brings an end to all ceremonies. The New Testament is about relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evangelical argument tries to link baptism to Old Testament works in order to countermand the requirement of obedience. The Bible makes no comparisons between baptism and circumcision or baptism and the law. But there is a reason why this common mistake is made. The mistake of comparing baptism to the law is also often made by Evangelicals as they use the next scripture, Galatians 2:16.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s look at that next.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEnjoy!\n
