Summary

Most of us are naturally curious as to why Jesus underwent baptism. Especially since John baptized Jesus after saying the Bible says John preached a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins! In this video I'll explain why Jesus was baptized and what deep theological truths we learn from it. I'll also tackle some of the false teaching of Bart Ehrman about the gospel of Mark. Here's the playlist for the whole Mark series (videos added weekly) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ3iRMLYFlHuGenHwUdeiQ5M-uj5XW4sF If you want to help support the free content I produce with this ministry then please click here (but know first that I don't want anyone to feel any pressure to give, I only need a minority of people to support in order to sustain this work) https://biblethinker.org/index.php/donate Go to my channel to see hundreds of free videos all meant to help you think biblically about everything.
