Baptism incorporates believers into the Christian community by initiating them into new life in Christ through water and spirit. It signifies both cleansing from sin and rebirth to new life through the Holy Spirit. Baptism unites Christians as members of the body of Christ and shares in Christ's prophetic, priestly and kingly mission by bearing witness, offering spiritual sacrifices, and serving others. Through baptism, believers become children of God and share in God's divine life through Christ and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

This is a study of Jesus being the source of our new life. It is a life that follows our death in Christ. We were buried with Him in baptism, and then raised like Him to a new life. We now live in Him and not just live in the world as we did before.
This is a study of Jesus being the circumciser. It is very unusual concept often ignored, but important to understand. It is made clear in these studies what it means.

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction.

Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
