We unpack why baptism is commended, what it signifies in Romans 6, and how the New Testament pattern calls for immediate, public obedience. We challenge baptized believers to live like the old self truly died and to resist the pull of “Egypt.”
• baptism commanded by Jesus and centered in making disciples
• symbolism of union with Christ in death and resurrection
• baptism as a new Exodus from slavery to sin
• New Testament pattern: belief then immediate baptism
• one baptism as a covenant sign with rare exceptions
• live as dead to sin and alive to God
• fight temptation by identity and Spirit-empowered obedience
• move from avoiding sin to offering yourself for righteousness
• leave Egypt behind and stop romanticising the past
