Baptized LIFE Sunday, September 21, 2025

The life of a follower of Jesus is a baptized life. Since the time of Jesus, baptism has been the sacrament of inclusion in the body of Christ. In going under the water and being baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, we receive a new identity in Christ. In God’s providential plan, going under the water to receive a new identity already took place at the crossing of both the Red Sea and the Jordan and the LORD God identified the people of Israel as his own. Today we will look at the importance of our baptismal identity and note the important role a milestone such as baptism or profession of faith serves in our lives.
