The few times I've heard anybody mention baptism in a teaching, they have spoken of the symbolism of the event or it's necessity or not for salvation. But never, in my remembrance, have I heard anyone speak of the power that is in baptism.

It seems so few have experienced the power, perhaps because they don't understand the purpose of it.

Most, it seems to me, have been taught it is only symbolism and do not understand the power of it and where it leads us.
