Christ Is Our Model For Baptism.

Jesus died, was buried, and rose again.
I Corinthians 15:3-4

1. He Died

 

3. Rose From The Dead

 

2. Was Buried

 

In Baptism God's Way, We Follow Jesus' Example.

We die to sin, are buried in a watery grave, and raised to walk a new life.
Romans 6:4, Galatians 3:27

1. We Die to Sin

 

3. Are Raised to Walk
in Newness of Life

 

2. Are Buried in Water

 

What Results From Baptism Man's Way?

Receive life by grace only, then be baptized.

1. One is Dead in Sin

 

2. Is Raised To New Life

 

3. Then Is Buried Alive?

 
Following Man's way, baptism is unnecessary or allows sprinkling or pouring of water,
but if one insists he ends up buried alive!  Think about it.
