The baptism debate. Typically, when I hear this, I cringe because it's not really done well.

There's a lot of strawmen. We don't represent each other's side, and it becomes heated and emotional.

We don't want to do that today. We want to talk about the differences and where they stand biblically,

and then why Justin and I would hold to a position known as

the Cratobaptist position, the 6 and 89 Baptist view of baptism.

Most of all, we pray that you're informed and encouraged.

We love our brothers who are Pato Baptist, and we hope that comes out in this podcast. Stay tuned.

If you're new to Theocast, you may not have heard of this word. It's called pietism.

You ever felt like the Christian life is a heavy burden versus rest and joy, that you wake up

worrying about how well you're going to perform instead of thinking about what Christ has done for you.

It's dread versus joy, really. That's pietism. Pietism causes Christians to look in on themselves

and find their hope, not in what Christ has done, but what they're doing. And we have a little

book for you. It's free. We want you to download it. And we're going to explain the difference between pietism and what we call confessionalism.

Reform theology, really, how it is that we walk by faith, seeing the joy of Christ.

And when Jesus says, come to me and I will give you rest, what does that look like?

You can download it at our website.

Just go to theocost.org. Welcome to Theocast,

Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ.

Conversations about the Christian life from a reform, pastoral, confessional, law gospel.

Hey, listen, we just talk about Jesus.

And our goal is to remove the clutter off the gospel and then say, what does Jesus mean by seek force the kingdom of God?

We want to talk about that.
