Just because baptism isn’t required for salvation doesn’t mean it’s not expected after salvation. There are many Christians who haven’t yet been baptized, yet God’s word has no hint that baptism is meant to be done months, or even years, after someone is saved. This episode looks at three common reasons a Christian hasn’t been baptized and challenges listeners to walk in obedience to what God expects His children to do.
