Vaughn argues that repentance alone is insufficient because biblical restoration requires identification with the sacrificial death of Christ. Using Romans 6:4 as the central text, he teaches that baptism is the believer's participation in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection and is therefore an essential part of entering covenant relationship with God.
