Serious theological error touted in a religious forum: “Jesus took away sin at His baptism.”
Jesus’ Baptism had NOTHING to do with sin but was a Jewish purification ritual that Jesus employed to make Himself “theologically acceptable” to the Jewish community as Jesus came specifically to Jacob’s children as He was seeking to proselytize them in the Gospel of Grace as Jesus was to prepare Jacob’s children as ministers of the Great Commission; An eschatological endeavor foreordained by the Father that Jacob’s children rejected.
For the record, John 3:5 has absolutely NOTHING to do with water baptism as an element of salvation but is simply a comparison/contrast to natural birth v. spiritual rebirth. It is ONLY the blood of Jesus our Messiah that atones for sin, NOT water.
