  • Ephesians 1:3-8; 2:1-10
  • Romans 3-4
    • Through the blood of Jesus
    • By God’s grace, through our faith
    • Not by anything we do to earn it
  • I Peter 1:9
    • Through our faith
  • I Peter 3:18-21
    • Baptism saves you
  • Acts 22:16
    • Baptism washes away sins
  • Mark 16:16
    • Believe and be baptized and be saved
  • So which is it? Is the Bible contradicting itself?
