Baptism is essential. It’s not done for just a public display of faith. It is essential to our salvation. This week, we continue our “In the Name” series looking into the Scriptures for evidence that baptism is FOR THE PURIFICATION of sins (aka – remission of penalties, forgiveness, etc.). Repentance is where we die and turn and become different, but baptism is where we are cleansed from the impurities of our sins. Without baptism, the sin is still attached to us and we are still branded as unclean. Baptism is done in Jesus’ name not just because that’s what Peter said in Acts 2 (although that’s important), but because it is LITERALLY the baptism of Jesus done by the Apostles in the Gospel accounts and continued into the Book of Acts. There is no scriptural reason to baptize any other way.
