The benefits of  Baptism abide forever.

I believe in one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

"All nations" includes all ages.

Wednesday, Lent 3 10.03.2021 3:07 ↓

God the Holy Spirit delivers the gift of the Holy Spirit, faith, and the forgiveness of  sins in Holy Baptism. Being “born again” is being a baptized child of God.

Hold to Titus 3, a trustworthy text!

Monday, Lent 3 08.03.2021 3:09 ↓

One baptism...

Lent 2, Friday 05.03.2021 3:20 ↓

Sing loudly: I am baptized into Christ!

Thursday, Lent 2 04.03.2021 3:34 ↓

Baptism has washed you in this newness of life and set you apart, sanctified in Christ's holiness.

Wednesday, Lent 2 03.03.2021 3:09 ↓

Your life depends on your baptism because your baptism depends on Jesus!

Lent 2, Tuesday 02.03.2021 3:26 ↓

Jesus' resurrection is your resurrection.

Monday, Lent 2 01.03.2021 3:26 ↓

You are clothed in Christ!

Second Sunday in Lent 28.02.2021 3:08 ↓

Christ does not hold out on you. He did not hold out on this poor woman. Your Jesus has given you the very words to pray in these times: “but deliver us from evil.” And He does. Not because of any worthiness of you, but of His own divine love and mercy. As dogs we beg, but we are lifted from our groveling on the floor like children, lifted to see Jesus face to face. Christ does not give to the dog...

Saturday, Lent 1 27.02.2021 3:42 ↓

God’s own child, I gladly say it. I am baptized into Christ. Amen.

Friday, Lent 1 26.02.2021 3:29 ↓

Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. (Hebrews 10:22)

Thursday, Lent 1 25.02.2021 3:35 ↓

Don’t only look at the water. Listen. Listen to God’s command. God’s command might seem silly, it might seem stupid, but remember this. If God commanded something great, you’d do it. And now, Christ commands something very simple for all the nations. Thanks be to God for this simple command, that we might be washed and be clean!

Wednesday, Lent 1 24.02.2021 3:35 ↓

Thanks be to God, for the water included in God’s command and combined with God’s Word!

Tuesday, Lent 1 23.02.2021 3:27 ↓

When God's Word is combined with water, God gets to the heart of the matter: He gets to our hearts and makes them new.

Monday, Lent 1 22.02.2021 3:23 ↓

The Holy Spirit gives life. In the beginning, He gave form to the water. Now, the Holy Spirit uses water as His way of killing a sinner and creating a saint.

First Sunday in Lent 21.02.2021 3:11 ↓

Baptism cannot just be plain water. God commanded it and attached His Word to it!

Saturday after Ash Wednesday 20.02.2021 3:13 ↓

Christians in the book of Acts were baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, just as we were!

Friday after Ash Wednesday 19.02.2021 3:50 ↓

God made us alive together with Christ!

Thursday after Ash Wednesday 18.02.2021 3:57 ↓

Lord, keep us steadfast in Your Word. Amen.
