Subject: Water, baptism and John 3:5/Titus 3:5 |
Bible Note: We do rise up as a "new creature," but it's up to us every day to rededicate our spirit to God and let Him keep on transforming us. As we draw nearer and nearer to Him, He draws nearer to us. I don't want to place an undue amount of emphasis on just baptism. It's the WHOLE of God's plan of salvation that transforms sinners to God's children in His kingdom. |
