Christian baptism is one of the two sacraments instituted by Jesus for the church. Shortly before His ascension, He said, "So go and make all the nations My disciples. Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teach them to observe all I have commanded you. And know: I am with you always, until the end of the world" These words indicate that the church's responsibility is to teach the word of Jesus, make people disciples and baptize these disciples. That's why every time I go to church https://firstchurchlove.com - means I'm going to study...
“For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.”
1 Corinthians 11:23-28 KJV
“Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.”
Romans 6:3, 5-6 KJV
