Why is Baptism Central to the Christian Life? (The Centrality of Baptism)
Baptism is anything but a throw-away topic for Christians. It is Central to our daily walk and gives us hope as we see it for what it is. Today, we learn that baptism is a Covenant Sign of Initiation. Baptism for the believer becomes the “starting line” so to speak for the disciple of Christ. And just in case you were wondering, a “disciple” according to John, is simply a life-long learner.
