Wouldn’t there be a recording of the disciples baptizing their households immediately after Christ instituted this ordinance?
If I understand Presbyterian covenant theology correctly they believe Jesus replaced circumcision with baptism. So would the disciples have assumed that circumcision was the sign of the covenant for any of their children? But what about their wives? We don’t have any recording of what the disciples did with their own households.
Depends if you believe in believers baptism.
@@HearGodsWord I do
I'm sure they preached and taught their wives all that Jesus commanded. Circumcision is of the heart and baptism is of the Holy Spirit; physical acts of each is non-salvific.
Listening now and so far I agree with you. Probably will to the end. For me the difficulty is not the doctrines of grace or baptism. The title of your presentation is “Baptist Covenant Theology”. The word “covenant” refers to replacing, supplanting or superseding to me. That’s where I’m stuck. I was in the PCA for over 15 years until I couldn’t stand the overt disdain for the Jewish people anymore. I’m honestly, respectfully asking. What do you mean by your use of the word “covenant”? Thank you.
A covenant is a vow made between two or more parties that established how a relationship between the parties interact.
A wedding is an example of a modern covenant.
I was a member of the Free Presbyerian Church (North America) for 16 years and never experienced or heard of any disdain for the Jewish people. Maybe it was just the church you were in perhaps.
Is this Dr. MALONE?
Yes
Is this Tom Ascol?

The Word “Baptize”:
Based on Luke 3:16, and John 1:33, and Acts 11:15-16, the most important thing about the word "baptize" in the New Testament has nothing to do with water. The Holy Spirit is the master teacher promised to New Covenant believers in Jeremiah 31:34, and John 14:26, and is found fulfilled in Ephesians 1:13, and 1 John 2:27. Unfortunately, many modern Christians see water when they read the word "baptize" in the text. Based on the above, what is the one baptism of our faith found in the passage below? How many times is the word "Spirit" found in the passage, and how many times is the word "water" found in the passage?
Eph 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
Eph 4:2 With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
Eph 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Eph 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
Who is this?

I wonder why he sped through Acts 2:29? That is a part of the argument for infant baptism.
I love the reformed church but I just can’t escape revelation 20 and the Jewish people. Sorry, I tried my best to reason with it but it’s impossible!
What exactly is impossible to you about revelation 20? I’m not sure I understand.
@@brettmagnuson8318 I have since changed my mind, but it was about the 1,000 year reign, I use to think it was a literal reign on earth with Christ.
I see. Yeah similar to the 144,00 it is not the exact number of the elect of Israel but a mere symbol of completion that God has saved all whom he wills out of every nation which is then pictured in the following segment of John’s vision.
What was your issue with reformed theology (or covenant theology) as it pertains to Israel? Just curious.
@@brettmagnuson8318 yes the book of revelation is mostly symbolic.
I was under dispensationalist theology when I wrote this comment.
I’m 100% reformed now.
I use to believe that Israel was separate from the church. And that a lot of what God promised Israel wasn’t fulfilled yet, now I see those things fulfilled in Christ.
I have a Christ centered hermeneutic now which I love.
@@Amilton5Solas so you could say it isn’t impossible then 😁. That’s really cool that God through illumination gave you understanding!
Yeah the nation of Israel really can cause a lot of hang ups. The kingdom of God by Jeff Johnson was extremely helpful for me on that topic.
( Do Christians And Jews and "OTHER" non-Muslims go to Heaven? )
Quran 2:62
'' Those who believe (in the Quran) and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures) and the Christians and the Sabians->ANYAllah< Is The Protector Of Monasteries, Churches, Synagogues And The Mosques )
Quran 22:40
[They are] those who have been evicted from their homes without right - only because they say, " Our Lord is God " And were it not that God checks the people, some by means of others, there would have been demolished monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques in which the name of God is much mentioned. And God will surely support those who support Him. Indeed, God is Powerful and Exalted in Might.
Note: Why did Allah protected Churches and Synagogues if they worship false Allah ?
( Why Are There So Many Different Religions In The World ? )
Quran 5 48
''...... If God wanted He could have made all of you a single nation.( ie single religion ) But He willed otherwise in order to test you in what He has given you (ie Scriptures) therefore try to excel one another in good deeds. Ultimately you all shall return to God then He will show you the truth of those matters in which you '' >DISPUTE verb < not noun like other religions
Islam mean "submission" to God
( The above verse saying is that God will not accept a religion from the >MUSLIM< and the Non-Muslims but total "submission" to God )
Question: How Can Muslim And the Non-Muslim "submit" to the God?
Answer: Be kind to other human beings and Do not lie, Do not steal, Do not cheat, Do not hurt others, Do not be prideful and Do the charity work.
Note: If you obeyed all the ABOVE Allah-God's moral laws "YOU" submitted to God.( ie Islam mean "submission" to God )
The only people who will enter Paradise those who '' Submitted to God '' ( ie by good deeds )
God does NOT accept your religion of birth but only ''Your Total'' Submission to Him.
( God Allows Interfaith Marriages And Eat Food From the Christian And Jew And Vice Versa )
Quran 5:5
''This day [all] good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture (ie Christian and Jew) is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And [lawful in marriage are] chaste women from among the believers (ie Muslim ) and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture (ie Christian and Jew) before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers. And whoever denies the faith - his work has become worthless and he in the Hereafter will be among the losers.''
Note: > Only < Islam allows interfaith marriages (>14 hundredsSame God< but They are >ALL Corrupt< more or less, some more than others from their original foundational teaching. The older religion are MORE corrupted than newer religion.
Question to Muslim and Christian:
Does God / Allah only answer your pray ?
And God / Allah does not answer non Muslim / non Christian pray?
Did Allah '' Canceled '' all other religions Judaism and Christianity?
Quran 5:48
'' And We have revealed to you [O Muhammad] the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture ( ie New and old Testament ) and as a criterion over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth. >>>TO EACH OF YOU WE PRESCRIBED A LAW AND A METHODone nation>differ qualified < for to enter Paradise )
On the day of judgement God will ''NOT'' judge humanity bases on Sunni Muslim sect VS Shia Muslim sect ''NOR'' by Muslim VS non-Muslim >but< Doer of Goods VS Doer of Evils.
'' YOUR " birth in the Muslim's family is NOT a > qualification < for to enter the Paradise.
'' YOUR " religion / sect / foot long beard is NOT a > qualification < for to enter the Paradise.
The > qualification < to enter Paradise is > Faith in God and Good Work
I hope you don't think anyone is going to waste his time reading this overly long nonsense! The Qur'an is an edited, postumous collection of the rantings of a wicked, mentally distrubed man. It proclaims a false deity and a false gospel.
This is the point christians are free of the prison you and others live on.
" For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast." Ephesians 2.8-9
Your works won't save you or grant you deliverance from God's wrath.
Repent and believe in Jesus, the Christ, only mediator between man and God, the one revealed in the Bible.
There is no salvation outside Christ Jesus.
What a sad yoke of bondage your religion is! Work, work, work and never know if you will even make it to see God & heaven. Come to Jesus in faith and be made free and have life everlasting.
