Baptism: God’s Work, Not Ours – Luther’s Large Catechism

Episode Description

In this episode, we read Dr. Martin Luther’s powerful teaching on Holy Baptism from the Large Catechism.

What is Baptism? Is it merely a symbol—or is it something far greater?

Luther reminds us that Baptism is not our work for God, but God’s work for us. It is water joined to God’s Word, delivering forgiveness of sins, rescuing from death and the devil, and giving eternal salvation to all who believe. Baptism is not just something that happened once in the past—it is a daily drowning of the old Adam and a daily rising of the new man in Christ.

If you struggle with doubt, guilt, or assurance before God, this reading will direct you away from your feelings and back to the solid promise God made when He placed His name upon you.

If this ministry strengthens your faith, please consider supporting our charitable work as we seek to proclaim Christ faithfully and serve those in need.

Soli Deo Gloria.
