Luther’s Small Catechism. What does such baptizing with water indicate? Daily dying and rising in Christ.

The Old Adam needs to die. Each of us do not need a lifeguard in this Christian life or a life raft on the lazy river, but we need a complete resurrection. In Christ, through Holy Baptism, we receive the gifts that God gives us in Baptism (forgiveness, a new creation, the robes of His righteousness, washing of rebirth, and renewal by the Holy Spirit). We are to come before our LORD in repentance each day to die and by His grace we rise to a new life in Christ. “Satan hear this proclamation; I am baptized into Christ!” Rev. Matthew Moss, pastor of St. John’s Lutheran Church and School in Corcoran, MN joins Rev. Brady Finnern to study the gift of Holy Baptism.
