Baptism is both an outward and sin ward spiritual concept that demonstrates a believer’s full acceptance of the Christian faith and identification with the ideals of the faith.  Baptism is a symbolic practice or act that identifies a believer with the experiences of Christ’s suffering, death, burial, resurrection, and spiritual endowment.  In a nutshell it identifies a believer, with unique events in the ministry of Jesus Christ (Rm. 6:3; Cor. 12:13; Col. 2:13).
