About this listen

In this episode, we examine Chapter 4, Section 1 of *The Two Babylons*, focusing on the doctrine of baptismal regeneration.


Hislop argues that the idea of spiritual rebirth through water did not originate with biblical Christianity, but instead traces back to ancient pagan mystery religions. For example, he points to ritual washings in ancient Babylonian and other mystery systems, where initiates believed water itself had the power to cleanse sin and impart new spiritual life.


Is baptism a symbol of faith—or a means of salvation? Join us as we dig into the roots of this controversial teaching and test it against Scripture.
