Today we are celebrating the baptism of Ryan Alan Weaver.  He wants to be sealed with the Holy Spirit and receive the blessed assurance that God the Father is his true Father, and that God the Son, Jesus Christ, is indeed the brother that has redeemed him from sin, death and the power of Satan.  Water and the Word, Christ's words, "In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.."  Ryan is baptized in the name of the Triune God, as Scripture teaches.  Baptized into that name, Ryan receives the inheritance of sonship given to all who have gone before him and all who will come after him believing in Jesus Christ as His savior.  A little more than 5 years ago, however, Carrie Underwood wrote a song called "Something in the Water" - I wonder why 'something' was used?  Did she not know what was in the water?  Did she think it was a magical water only?  We dig deep into Scriptural teaching on Baptism today.
