The Meaning of Baptism

But wasnt John Baptising people before Jesus died and resurrected?

Baptism has nothing to do with getting our skin and hair wet, it's a matter of spirit. We baptise ourselves through meditation

People often see baptism as having a literal effect, but in reality dunking your head under the water while a preacher blesses you does nothing. It is a symbol of rebirth that Jesus wants christians to follow. It is a physical representation of your choice to die to your self and come to Jesus. As I have found myself coming closer to Jesus I have also found myself desiring to be baptised. I no longer like my previous self, because it is rebellious, unkind, and impatient. I want only the legacy God wanted for all of us and that Jesus was able to live as. When you come to be baptised you show for all the world to see a person entering the water, and emerging a new person, fully forgiven and newly transformed. Stop seeing baptism as the thing that forgives the sins and look at it the way Jesus said I should be seen; as a testament to your love of Jesus and the desire to be made new and clean so you may live a new life.

Jesus said to the man on the cross next to him "today you will be with me in paradise". (Luke Chapter 23 Verse 43). Had this man been water baptized???
Water baptism happens because someone has been saved. Water baptism doesn't save.
The recent coronation happened because Charles is now the King. The coronation didn't make Charles the King. Charles became the King when his mother - Queen Elizabeth the Second - died.
A coronation for William or George would be nonsense as neither of them are King.

It's sin to think children as sinners. Children are already pure.

amazing video

Beautiful explanation brother.

In other words = Pointless

Great explanation.. thanks 🙏🏽

Baptism does not wash your sins away. It is an outward sign of an inward transformation that has been done by Jesus Christ.

Mom had me baptised when I was young and I still ended up not being a Christian from a relatively young age in my life.

My name also happens to be Matthew and I was born on Easter day in 1995.

Beautiful

You are sorely mistaken, sir.

Water baptism does nothing to wash away our sins.

Our sins are washed away by faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ.

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:
1 Peter 3:21

And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord.
Acts 22:16

Amen praise the lord

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. (Isaiah 55:7)
When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. (Mark 2:17)

Did John wash Jesus Sin?

Okay so when children are baptized at 1 to 8 years of age, it symbolizes that they are washing away of their sins from their previous life? Because they’ve recently just been born.

.Other have told me that it symbolizes a new life and that you’re making a covenant with god that you will keep his commandments:
1. No CATS
2. Chasity
& washes away your sins.

I’m more than comfortable with my sins, I thought that baptism is getting an armor of water.

Why does everyone else that got baptized as a child, don’t have to make promises or covenants to god?

But they tell that to new people who convert?
Like does it varies from person to person? If it does, would I be disrespectful if you deny, if you don’t agree on what it symbolizes?

Because the new born child, get baptized and it has the rest of it’s life to be committing sins (enjoy life). And a new comer like me, would have to live by the “commandments” in order to receive “blessing”. And that’s where I hesitate because part of me feel like I’m making a deal with the god. That’s not what i think religious worship should be about, making bets or gambling.

Right on…

If baptism can washed away our sin than there no point of Jesus Christ dying on the cross.

Baptism cannot wash away our sin!
Our sin is wash only by the blood of Lord Jesus Christ at moment of when we put our faith in Christ Jesus and accepting Him as our personal lord and saviour. Baptism is an identification of our inner change of outward being. Identifying by the Death of Christ for our sin and resurrection of Jesus Christ for our hope of eternal life through Baptising.

This is not true baptism. You must read the Essene Gospel of Peace with the teachings of Jesus, and you'll learn that baptism is a long process that takes days, and at the end of the baptism YOU WILL BE TRULY CLEANSED...Everyone is giving their own privide interpretation of what baptism is. The truth is that you all are way off on what it truly is, and most would not even be able to be baptized or even willing if they knew what it really takes to do it, and what you must truly go through to be truly cleansed. It's way more to it than what we have been told and taught, way more to it than you could even imagine or understand right now because you still walk in darkness and the light of truth would be to bright for your eyes to see the truth from the lie and your ears to dull to hear and perceive and understand. In the dark you will reject what you can't see, you'll feel it but the feel of it will not be how you perceive it to be, so you'll say, can't be. But I tell you that the way is here and now. The books have been opened and all things hidden in the dark are now in the light to see. You just have to seek it with all your heart and it will be opened to you, just as it has been shown to me and my family. I pray for love piece and light to you all, and most of all truth....John 4:23,24 kjv "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth, for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit, they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Yes I like when someone breaks it down like this for a Idea of what it is TY. I read and sometimes don't get the same understanding I read scriptures and I get so frustrated when your reading n reading and still comprehension is blank oh boy read the whole thing again n pray for understanding

Why do they baptise children? what possible sins have they committed?

Um what Baptism means in category

i hope this happens to me once a week LMAO

Amen

The only thing that washes away our sins is the Blood of Christ Jesus and not any water

It seems to be something of a memorial. You can recieve the spirit of “God” without baptism. Its was a ritual cleansing that the priests did. You have to have a pure heart because if your heart is not clean and your flesh cannot be clean.

Washing away sins by sprinkling some water is not actual baptism if you wash away your sins by doing good work over evil work that's real baptism people are superstitious that's why they think everything externally

Very well explained

thank you for the great simple explanation! God bless!

How about sprinkling?

I like when I read acts 16:13 because if you read it in a bible you know Liydia she was a seller in thyatira she sell purple cloths and she was Baptized by God and she was next to people and the people were telling bible story’s and 🙏 prayeing and she said come to my house and she persuaded us the End thank for listening god bless you I in Georgia

Seven demons with there names or first letter word of their names so when your getting baptized you enter the water by your self not with them what if they pee in the water or have some sort of sin with them and they pass it to them or to any person or human being

7 letter word 7 sins 7 demons so your basically letting something in

Baptism is SPIRITUAL WARFARE in the spirit realm AGAINST the REBELLIOUS members of God's divine counsel (demons) who stand against God. A duel realm (spiritual/physical) proclamation where God is saying to His adversaries: NO LONGER yours, this one's MINE! THIS ONE has chosen to come back home. Amen

AMEN
