WATER BAPTISM
A. What Is Baptism?
A.1. Outward Symbol
“Look, here is water. Why shouldn’t I be baptized?” (Ac 8:36b)
Baptism is the outward and visible symbol of an inward and unseen, rebirth. At conversion we are “baptised into Christ” (Gal 3:27), signifying a spiritual baptism into the body of Christ. Water baptism graphically depicts what has happened to a person who has become a Christian. As they go down under the water they depict Christ’s death and their own death to self. As they come up out of the water they depict Christ’s resurrection and their own rising to a new life (Ro 6:1-14).
