In the New Testament, baptism is tied to the forgiveness and cleansing from sin, offering a fresh start for believers. In Acts 2:38, the Apostle Peter says, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." This verse highlights that baptism is a means through which believers experience forgiveness, and by repenting and being baptized, they are cleansed from past wrongs, granted a new beginning, and empowered by the Holy Spirit to live a transformed life.
Additionally, baptism symbolizes the believer's identification with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is central to Christian faith. In Romans 6:4, Paul writes, "We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life." This shows that baptism is not only about forgiveness but also about the spiritual renewal that follows, where believers share in the power of Christ’s resurrection, receiving a new life empowered by God's grace. Through baptism, believers are granted the assurance of God's promise to be with them, strengthening their walk of faith and giving them hope for eternal life.
Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
