BAPTISM (1)
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Bible Topic
a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.
2. Baptism
a) The Bible closely links baptism with believing the gospel—the good news of salvation through Jesus Christ. It’s in the Bible, Mark 16:15, 16, NIV. “He [Jesus] said to them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whosoever does not believe will be condemned.”
b) When the people were convicted by Peter’s sermon on the day of Pentecost, what did Peter tell them they should do? It’s in the Bible, Acts 2:38, NIV. “Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.’ ”
c) Baptism represents the washing away of one’s sins. It symbolizes the fact that just as Jesus died for our sins, was buried, and rose again to life—so we have died to our sins, are buried under the water in baptism, and rise again to live a new life in Jesus. It’s in the Bible, Acts 22:16, NKJV.. “And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.”
d) It's in the Bible, Romans 6:1-4, NIRV. “What should we say then? Should we keep on sinning so that God's grace can increase? Not at all! As far as sin is concerned, we are dead. So how can we keep on sinning? All of us were baptized into Christ Jesus. Don't you know that we were baptized into his death? By being baptized, we were buried with Christ into his death. Christ has been raised from the dead by the Father's glory. And like Christ we also can live a new life.”
e) How many different types of baptism do the Scriptures teach? It's in the Bible, Ephesians 4:5, NKJV "one Lord, one faith, one baptism;"
Note: the word "baptize" in the Bible means "dip" or "immerse"
