What is baptism?

0

The word “baptize” comes from the Greek word baptismo which means to immerse. Hence “baptism” is immersion. Following the example of John the Baptist people are immersed in the water bodily as an identification outwardly of what has taken place inwardly. The believer now publicly identifies himself with Christ.

Water baptism is the first step of public obedience after receiving Jesus Christ and symbolizes the death to self in Christ and the beginning of a new life in Him. Water baptism is a wonderful celebration of becoming new creatures in Jesus!
