Baptism: Command, Meaning, and Obedience

The sermon provides an overview of Christian baptism, addressing why believers are baptized and correcting common misconceptions. The preacher argues that baptism is commanded by Jesus in the Great Commission and serves as an act of obedience, though it does not save; salvation comes through grace and faith as stated in Ephesians. Baptism is presented as an identification with Christ, demonstrated through external profession of faith and allegiance, illustrated through examples of believers in Nepal and Sri Lanka accepting Christ and preparing for baptism.

Scripture: Mark 16:15-16, Ephesians 2:8-9, Galatians 3:27
