Or are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his
death? We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life.
Romans 6:3-4
Baptism certainly will not save you, nor will it earn you one ounce of grace. However, there is
nothing as powerful of a symbol for the believer who has come to Christ as being submerged under water and then brought out of its depth as one whom the Holy Spirit has chosen to live. In a sense, we are spiritually resurrected people, eternally adopted into the family of God.
