the Holy Spirit.
2. It is an ope n and visible profession of our faith in

2. Bap tism by water– M ark 1:8
3. Bap tism by Holy Ghost – M ark 1:8
These baptisms must be experienced by a believer in
order to live an acceptable life unto God.BAPTISM INTO CHR IST
This form of baptism takes place at new birth,
when one gives his/her life to God and makes Christ
His Lord and Saviour. This is not experienced by work
but by grace through Faith as Eph 2:8 -9 concludes.
These means we are identified with the death and
resurrection of Christ Rom 6:4, Eph 2:-16.
When He was crucified, we were buried with
Him, when He died, we died with Him and When He
resurrected with Him. All these purpose of identifying
with His victory and triumph over death, grace and sin.
I Cor 15:5 5,Col 2:11 -14
Remember this experience comes via grace
through faith not by wo rks.

Christ. This time one needs to be immerse in water
(signifies being buried with Him) and from water
(signifies being raised up with Him to a new life). Rom
