The Church (Pt 4) - Baptism

In this sermon, we look at one of the two ordinances of the church - baptism. In this sermon, we see that baptism is both an external symbol of our being washed clean by the blood of Christ AND the state that we Christians live in as we are covered by the blood of Christ.  We also see that our normal mode of baptizing is to immerse the new believer in water because it best symbolizes the believer's participation in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and subsequent union to Christ by faith.
