I have been studying with many guys who are on the verge to get baptized, so for devotional I went over many of the different gifts of God’s grace that is given to someone at the point of baptism.
Early Christians used the term “receiving grace” and “baptism” interchangeably.
In baptism you are given…
Acts 2:38- Forgiveness of sins
Acts 19:1-5- The Holy Spirit
Luke 7:29-30- God’s purpose for your life
Matthew 3:15- Fulfilled righteousness
Acts 22:16- Calling of the Lord
Romans 6:3-4- A new life
John 3:5- Entrance into God’s kingdom
Colossians 2:11-15- A covenant with God
Colossians 2:11-15- a new nature and your sinful nature is rolled back
Colossians 2:11-15- Authority since Satan’s power is disarmed
Galatians 3:26-27- The garments of Christ
Galatians 3:26-27- Son-ship.
Titus 3:5- Renewal
1 Corinthians 12:12-13- Membership in the church
1 Peter 3:21- A good conscience
Mark 16:15-16- Salvation
Genesis 1:1-3 has a baptismal pattern. There is darkness, then water and the Spirit, and then comes light! Just like before we are Christians, there is darkness, as we go into the water we receive the Holy Spirit, and come out and are in the light.
