I am preaching through Hebrews 10 at a church I have a monthly appointment. In the section I preached on this last Sunday night, vss 19-25, I covered the topic of baptism and how it is a sign and seal of the new covenant, but it in no way saves. After I finished the sermon a Brother spoke about Christ's baptism, and he asked a rhetorical question of why was Jesus baptized? He said it was not for His sins as He did not have any, but for our sins. I've never heard that before, and I cannot say I agree with it. I agree with Dr. W. Robert Godfrey and that Christ was baptized to identify with His ppl.


So, what say ye, ye blokes? Agree or disagree? I disagree.
