1 | Do you have to be baptized to be saved? | Rom 6:3 | New Man | 128880 | ||
Baptism with water does not save you. It is only a public confession of your faith in Jesus Christ. Water baptism is an outward sign depicting the believer’s union with Christ in His death and resurrection. When you repented of your sins and believed that Jesus was punished on the cross in your place, that is when you were immediately baptized by Jesus Christ with the Holy Spirit. John the Baptist said, “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit (believers) and fire (unbelievers). Believers are immersed by Christ with the Holy Spirit immediately upon their salvation. H20 has nothing to do with it. Christ is the baptizer (see Matt. 3:11) who immerses each believer with the Spirit into unity with all other believers. Nevertheless, you should obey Jesus’ example and command to be baptized to show your public confession of faith. |
