Baptism is a command from Jesus Christ.
Chris Matthews - Saved Aug 18th 12:53 p.m.
Baptism is a command from Jesus Christ. In Matthew 28:19-20, He instructs His disciples to baptize new believers in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Baptism symbolizes the washing away of sins and the new life we have in Christ (Romans 6:4).
According to Luke 15:10, angels rejoice when a sinner repents and turns to God. Some say that this is because the sinner's sins are removed, their nature changes, and their name is written in the Lamb's book of life. Others say that angels rejoice when a sinner publicly confesses "Jesus is my Savior and Lord" through baptism.
