What is Baptism? Many church bodies have developed their own versions of this ancient Christian rite, but what does the Bible say about Baptism? The book Baptism clearly demonstrates what the Bible says: Baptism is a mighty act of God in which he washes away sin and creates saving faith. Through this mighty act, sinners are born again as children of God and become living members of Christ's spiritual body, the church. If you're wondering what Baptism is and what it means for your everyday life of faith, this book is for you! The People's Bible Teachings is a series of books on all the main teachings of the Bible. Following the pattern set by The People's Bible series, these books are written for all Christians in an easy-to-read manner. The authors of The People's Bible are all pastors and professors who have had years of experience teaching others about the Bible.
