Baptism is a first next step that an individual takes to profess faith in Christ. We baptize by immersion those with a clear testimony of having been forgiven of sin, and thus having been buried with Christ and made brand new. This act represents burial and resurrection and follows the pattern of New Testament baptism. For many being baptized, this faith is new and the baptism we are speaking of is a first step. The “reality” or “substance” of what has happened in someone’s life is seen in Romans 6:3-4. We are baptized into Christ. The water is a portrayal. Baptism doesn’t save!

In September of 2020, in response to what I felt was the Lord’s leading, I set out to read the entire Bible by the end of the year. I finished the New Testament today, December 16.

Here’s what God showed me in the Old Testament during this time.
