Baptism: The Gateway to the church, Part 2 | Foundations of Church Life
Baptism is to show the death of the unrepentant person and their rebirth in Jesus.
Baptism is the method for a person to profess the change in their lives from an unredeemed sinner to a redeemed sinner; a new member of God’s family. Baptism represents the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and water baptism reflects the new person in Christ, showing the death and burial of their unrepented life to the resurrection and salvation of their ‘born again’ life in Christ. Their salvation from the wrath of God for their sins, to reconciliation with God the Father.
Travis explains how Baptism brings the members of a local church together, in fellowship, with the born-again person and allows for their discipleship and teaching.
