EP059: Why Baptist? Two Ordinances, One Truth - Part 5

This episode explains the Baptist distinctive of the two ordinances: believers’ baptism (by immersion) and the Lord’s Supper as a symbolic memorial. It distinguishes ordinances from sacraments, rejects baptismal regeneration, and clarifies that participation presumes salvation.

The host outlines the biblical sequence—salvation, baptism, church membership, then the Lord’s Supper—shows why only professing believers are baptized, and explains the difference between water baptism and the spiritual baptism that unites believers to Christ.
