In this episode of YouTube Catechesis, we take on a common but dangerous assumption: that baptism is merely symbolic. But where does the Bible actually say that? We explore 1 Peter 3:21 alongside Acts, Romans, and the Gospels, showing that baptism is not an optional outward gesture, it is the God-ordained sacrament that truly saves.

Drawing from Scripture, apostolic tradition, and the consistent witness of the early Church, we uncover why Christians for 1,500 years never debated baptism’s saving power. We examine how Protestant interpretations began shifting only in the 16th century, why the symbolic-only view is inconsistent even within Protestantism, and how the Catholic understanding is shared by other historic Christian traditions.

We also address common objections and reveal why exceptions don’t overturn God’s ordinary means of grace. This episode will equip you with biblical clarity, historical evidence, and practical reasoning for defending the truth of baptismal regeneration.
