Baptism: Testimony of Faith

Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.

Baptism is the outward expression of faith. It’s your Testimony! We are not saved with baptism. We are saved only with the blood of Jesus! We are then sealed! The Bible talks about the importance of baptism, and we should be obedient to that. However, only our faith in Jesus will save us. It’s Jesus! Only his blood, his perfect sacrifice. Praise God for His grace and giving us His son as the perfect sacrifice! To say we are not saved without baptism, is to say that Jesus is not the perfect sacrifice! We are sealed with that blood and the acceptance of the Holy Spirit! Bring baptized is the testimony of our faith. Showing the death of our old self and the new life in Christ!

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬-‭10‬ ‭ESV‬‬
“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬-‭14‬ ‭ESV‬‬
“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.”

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭15‬ ‭ESV‬‬
“Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, just as you were taught, abounding in thanksgiving. See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority. In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead. And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them t
