Observations re verses
on baptism:
JohnÕs baptism JesusÕ
baptism
With water (much water Jn
3:23) with
fire
Unto repentance with
the Holy Ghost
For remission of sins
Looking toward belief on
Jesus Christ, Acts 19:4
Baptism pictures burial
and resurrection – Rom 6:3-4, Col 2:12
(i.e., immersion –
Acts 8:38)
It is associated with
washing/cleansing – Acts 22:16
Baptism requires a Ògood
conscience toward GodÓ – 1 Peter 3:21
There is one
acceptable baptism, one acceptable faith, and one Lord/God and
Father of all. Eph 4:5-6
It is associated with confessing
sin – Matt 3:6, Mark 1:5
Jesus set the example
– Matt 3:13, Mark 1:9, Luke 3:21
John recognized that
JesusÕ had the greater baptism—Matt 3:11, 14, Luke 3:16
Baptism is connected with
belief (faith) – Mark 16:16, Acts 8:12-13, 18:8
It is associated with
being delivered from the wrath to come – Luke 3:7, Matt 3:7
The disciples/earthly
representatives of Jesus performed the physical baptisms—not Jesus
– John 4:2
It requires repentance
– Acts 2:38
It is associated with
those who Ògladly receive His wordÓ – Acts 2:41
It should only be done in
the name of Jesus – Acts 2:38, 8:16, 10:48, 19:5
It makes us part of one
body – 1 Cor 12:13
In effect, it is clothing
oneself with Christ – Gal 3:27
It is a command of Jesus;
an act of obedience – Matt 28:19
It is associated with
JesusÕ suffering – Matt 20:22-23, Mark 10:38-39, Luke 12:50
It is a foundational
(milk of the word) doctrine – Heb 6:1-2
1 Cor 10:1-5 –
Baptism unto Moses suggests unity of faith in action resulting in
deliverance. The problem with the
example given is that the faith of the people was in the man Moses and not in
God.
What did it mean to
Òjustify GodÓ in Luke 7:29?
It is to recognize that
God is the one with the authority to decide what is appropriate/correct. Those who were obedient to JohnÕs
baptism were recognizing their need to repent as a prerequisite to acceptance
of the Messiah
I have no clue what the
verses regarding Òbaptism for the deadÓ mean in
1 Cor 15:28-29.
Notes on Baptism
Pastor Bob
11/6/02
Re baptism--
There is a difference in
being filled with and being filled and surrounded by or submerged in.
Sacraments are actions
done in obedience to proper authority.
Protestants – 2
sacraments – baptism & the LordÕs Supper
Catholics – 7
sacraments
Catholics consider
baptism a sacrament of rebirth and necessary for infants to erase Òoriginal
sinÓ
Reformed denominations
(Presbyterians, Lutherans, etc.) baptize infants to seal their salvation before
they realize they are sinners.
Calvary, Baptists, (+?)
believe that you canÕt rely on connections in the family or church, and that
repentance is necessary for proper baptism. Reference the following verses:
Luke
3:7 Then said he
to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers,
who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
Luke
3:8 Bring forth
therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves,
We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to
raise up children unto Abraham.
1Pet.
3:18 For Christ
also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring
us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:
1Pet.
3:19 By which
also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;
1Pet.
3:20 Which
sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the
days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls
were saved by water.
1Pet.
3:21 The like
figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the
flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus
Christ.
Acts
2:38 Then Peter
said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus
Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost.
