Baptism

      1 When they saw Jesus, they worshipped him,
      yet some doubted. And Jesus came and spoke
      to  them,  saying,  all  power  is  given  to  me  in
      heaven and in earth. So go, teach all nations,

      baptizing them in the name of the Father, and
      of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: teaching
      them  to  observe  all  things  I  have

      commanded you: and, remember, I am with
      you always, even to the end of the world.


      2 As the body is one and has many members,
      and  all  members  of  that  one  body,  though
      many are one body, so also is Christ. For by one
      Spirit  are  we  all  baptized  into  one  body,
      whether  Jews  or  Gentiles,  bond  or  free;  and
      have  been  all  made  to drink  into  one  Spirit.  3

      Figuratively,  baptism  does  also  now  save  us
      (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh,
      but  the  answer  of  a  good  conscience
      toward God) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
      who  is  gone  into  heaven,  and  is  on  the  right

      hand  of  God;  angels  and  authorities  and
      powers being made subject to him.
