God is the Father of All Peoples! 222 times! (NAS) 2/21/2010 2

Only those who have put their Faith in Jesus Christ are : 2/21/2010 3

The goal of the foundation is to immunize 90% of the children in the developing world. 2/21/2010 4

The Gates foundation says that they uphold two main values. All lives have equal value, and, secondly, to whom much is given, much is expected. 2/21/2010 5

Paul made “4” points! 2/21/2010 6

Before Faith Israel was confined under the law which gave restraint and guidance but couldn't give inheritance 2/21/2010 7

Christ came and with him a Great movement of Faith! 2/21/2010 8

Whenever men and women unite with Christ by faith (symbolized in Baptism) they are justified and become children of God and heirs of his promise to Abraham 2/21/2010 9

Therefore we who are in Christ are no longer under the Law. 2/21/

For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 2/21/

To be “clothed” in Christ” To be “immersed” in Christ To be “placed” in Christ To be “bound” in Christ To be “sealed” in Christ” 2/21/

2/21/

 Symbolization of Cleansing (Matt 3:1-6)  For the repentance of Sins! Leviticus Chapter 15:13 Bodily discharges were considered unclean and Sinful! 2/21/

Truly I say to you, among those born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist! Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 2/21/

Jesus walked “70" or more miles (2 ½ days) to be Baptized by John! John 1:28 In Bethany Beyond the Jordon “The Map of Howie” 2/21/201016

2/21/

So what? 2/21/

2/21/

 Christ fulfills all Righteousness: (Matt 3:15)  His first public identification with those whose Sins he would bear! His perfect righteousness will be imputed to them! 2/21/

2/21/

"As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 2/21/

 For Repentance!  For Salvation!  For Judgment! 2/21/

How does Water Baptism differ from the days of Christ to Today? 2/21/

Baptism then and now!  Today!  To acknowledge and proclaim that we are one with Christ!  The Days of Christ!  Cleansing for the Repentance of Sin! 2/21/

Acknowledge and Proclaim we are one with Christ? 2/21/

It symoblizises our identification with Christ with his death, burial and resurrection……….. 2/21/

 Matthew 28: :Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 2/21/

19:Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 2/21/

20:and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.“ 2/21/

Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 2/21/

4: Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. 2/21/

5: For if we have become united with Him in the likeness of His death, certainly we shall also be in the likeness of His resurrection 2/21/

6: knowing this, that our old self was crucified with Him, in order that our body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be slaves to sin; 7: for he who has died is freed from sin. 2/21/

 Baptized into Death!  Buried with Christ!  Likeness of his Death!  Crucified with Christ!  To be Baptized into Christ!  To walk in the Newness of Life!  To be united in likeness of his Resurrection!  To no longer be Slaves of Sin! 2/21/

2/21/

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 2/21/

14: For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; 2/21/

and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf. 15: and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf. 2/21/

“All For One and One For All” by : Alexandre Dumas in 1844 A trio of French musketeers named Athos, Portho and Aramis who stayed loyal to each other through thick and thin. 2/21/

All For One and One For All!  For “Christ”!  Christ For “All”! “All” of those who follow him! 2/21/

This is not to have an experience to Seek! But a reality to Acknowledge! 2/21/

2/21/

13: For the promise to Abraham or to his descendants that he would be heir of the world was not through the Law, but through the righteousness of faith. 2/21/

17:indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. 2/21/

18:In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice." What Seed? 2/21/

The promised Seed was Christ and Christians in him. 2/21/

So What? 2/21/

All believers of the Spiritual Blessing that accompanied the Abrahamic Covenant receive Justification! Not by the Law !!!!! 2/21/
