7Baptism is a Burial (Implying
Immersion)
Or do you not know that as many of us as were
baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His

was raised from the dead by the glory of the
Father, even so we also should walk in newness of
life. Romans 63-4

Christ. Galatians 326-27

flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward
God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ 1

13There is Only One Baptism
One Lord, one faith, one baptism. Ephesians 45
