Today, we dive into the second part of our sermon series on Baptism. Last week, we looked at 'Phase 1' of baptism, which represents death. This week, we explore 'Phase 2' of baptism, which represents new life and resurrection. When a person comes back up out of the water, they are baptized into the power of Holy Spirit. All kinds of wondrous and powerful things happen. When we are baptized, we are submerged into union with the spirit of holiness. Jesus ignites the kingdom life within us, filling us with Holy Spirit, changing us from the inside out. Jesus places everything true in its proper place before God. Everything that is false, he puts out with the trash to be burned.
