Let's Talk About Baptism

Do you know about baptism? Where did people like John the Baptist get the idea? Some sprinkle, some immerse, some do not use water--which is the type Christians originally utilized? Why does it seem that Jesus got baptized? Does the Holy Spirit come from baptism, or afterwards with the laying on of hands? What about the blood of Jesus? Are you begotten or born-again at baptism? Does baptism picture a type of resurrection? Who should perform the baptism? Is re-baptism ever necessary? What does baptism picture? Does one actually need to obey God to be a real Christian? Who should be baptized? Is baptism necessary for salvation? Why does the Church of God want pre-baptismal counseling? What did the old Worldwide Church of God teach? Who is to make the final decision about baptism? Did early Christians baptize infants? Who should be baptized? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters and more in this first-part of a two-part sermon series on baptism.
