About this episode

Pastor Jeff Cranston discusses the meaning of baptism in relation to salvation, using 1 Peter 3:21 and the story of Noah.

"Baptism now saves you." Wait — doesn't Jesus alone save us? In this message, Pastor Jeff Cranston tackles one of the most misunderstood verses in the New Testament: 1 Peter 3:21. Using the story of Noah's family being carried safely through the floodwaters, Peter draws a striking parallel to baptism and what that connection actually means for your faith.
