Mark 7:3-4 (The Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they give their hands a ceremonial washing, holding to the tradition of the elders. When they come from the marketplace they do not eat unless they wash. And they observe many other traditions, such as the washing of cups, pitchers and kettles.) water Jesus commands us to use

Evaluate… Meg, a teenager, wanted to be baptized standing in a river, instead of standing next to the baptismal font in church.

What’s wrong here? As a pastor pours water on a baby’s head, he says, “I baptize you in the name of the Creator, the Redeemer, and the Comforter.”

John asks his pastor, “Why does Jesus tell us in Matthew 28:19 to baptize in the name of the triune God, when in Acts 2:38 Peter talks about being baptized in Jesus’ name?” How would you answer John?

Whom are we to baptize? Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit… all nations

Why do we baptize children? Matthew 18:6 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. believe in Jesus children can

Key Point #3 We baptize little children since “all nations” includes them, they are sinful, and they can believe.

When little Stephanie was baptized, her parents received several greeting cards that expressed the joy that some of their friends had when they hard about Stephanie’s birth and her baptism. Some cards spoke about Stephanie’s christening. Why do you suppose a baptism would be referred to as a christening?

Lesson 44 Baptism is an act that Jesus commands us to do to all nations, using water together with his Word.
