THE DOCTRINE OF BAPTISM

3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?

4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:3-4

1. Baptism is significant

a) We are baptised into the Lord Jesus
b) We are baptised into His death
c) We are buried with Him

2. Identification with the Lord Jesus

a) We are raised with Him by the glory of God the Father
b) We should walk in newness of life
c) This must be in our heart and mind

A GREAT CHALLENGE

1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.

2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth.

3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

4 When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.

Colossians 3:1-4

1. Raised with the Lord Jesus Christ

2. Ramifications to consider
