Stop Misusing the Thief on the Cross

Stop Misusing the Thief on the Cross

Long version available here https://open.spotify.com/episode/0jRaco7QIfNS7tYP2o6Ui7?si=8kaHUcRjT1i36iOdd6X57g [https://open.spotify.com/episode/0jRaco7QIfNS7tYP2o6Ui7?si=8kaHUcRjT1i36iOdd6X57g] Many people use the thief on the cross to argue that baptism is not necessary—but is that really what Scripture teaches? In this message, I challenge the popular “faith alone” objection to baptism and explain why Jesus Himself was baptized as our example. Baptism is not an optional religious ritual; it is a humble act of obedience, a symbolic death and rebirth, and a foundational step in following Yeshua the Messiah. If you’ve been told baptism does not matter, this message may be uncomfortable—but it is worth hearing. baptism, thief on the cross, baptism necessary for salvation, faith alone, grace alone, Christian baptism, Yeshua, Jesus Christ, salvation, repentance, born again, water baptism, biblical baptism, baptism debate, baptism controversy, satanic doctrine, false doctrine, unbiblical teaching, lake of fire, Christian obedience, works and faith, faith without works, doctrine of baptism, baptism required, Jesus baptism, Yeshua the Messiah, Christian theology, salvation doctrine, controversial Christianity, Bible teaching, repentance and baptism, Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16, John 3 born again, Romans 6 baptism, follow Jesus

You Are Not the Thief on the Cross: Why Baptism Still Matters

Many people point to the thief on the cross to argue that baptism is not necessary—but is that really the lesson Scripture is teaching? In this message, we examine Luke 23, John 5, and Revelation 20 to show why repentance, baptism, and walking as Yeshua walked remain essential for believers today. The thief on the cross was an extraordinary last-hour situation, not the pattern for those who have time to obey. Repent, accept Yeshua as Messiah, be baptized, and walk in deeds worthy of repentance. baptism, thief on the cross, Yeshua, Jesus Christ, Jesus the Christ, Yeshua Messiah, repentance, salvation, born again, Christian baptism, Luke 23, John 5, Revelation 20, resurrection of judgment, resurrection of life, faith and works, grace alone, faith alone, Torah, follow Jesus, follow Yeshua, gospel message, biblical baptism, baptism required, Christian teaching, Messiah, Yahweh, shalom

I don't think you really know what salvation by works really means

Most of Christianity gets salvation by works totally wrong.

God Bless FIFA Fans!

Visitors from Europe and around the world are coming to America and being amazed by everyday things many of us take for granted—ranch dressing, free chips and salsa, Whataburger, Waffle House, Longhorn Steakhouse, and American hospitality. Their reactions are a powerful reminder to count our blessings, question the negativity we consume from media and social media, and remember that America is still a welcoming, abundant, and blessed country.

Yes, the Sabbath is a Commandment for Christians

Does the New Testament really teach that the Sabbath is for all mankind? In this video, we look at Yeshua’s words in Mark 2:27 — “The Sabbath was made for man” — and examine the meaning of the Greek word anthropos, showing that the Sabbath was made for mankind, not just for one group of people. We also connect this teaching back to creation in Genesis 1 and show how the Sabbath has always been part of Yahweh’s design: at creation, in the first century, today, and when Messiah returns. If you’ve been told the Sabbath commandment is not repeated in the New Testament, this message challenges that claim directly. Please like, share, subscribe, and leave your comments below. Shalom.
