The Importance of Baptism
- Summary: What does the Bible say baptism’s purpose is? In this lesson, we answer this question in Colossians 2:8-15 and consider how this passage helps us to better appreciate what God does in baptism, and also equips us to talk to others who do not believe or understand that baptism is essential for salvation.
