1. Baptism is a testimony of your faith.

3. Baptism is an outward sign of an inward grace that took place the minute you believe. It could have been that you were saved 2 days ago, 2 months ago or 2 years ago.

Ephesians 5:25-28... as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, 26 so that He might sanctify her,  having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, 27 that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or any wrinkle; but that she would be holy and blameless.

Acts 22:16 Now why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.

Colossians 2:12-13 having been buried with Him in baptism, .........13.....He made you alive together with Him, having forgiven us all our transgressions,

1 Peter 3:20-21...through water. 21 Corresponding to that, baptism now saves you--- 

Romans 6:3-4 Or do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death? 4 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism int death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life.
