Our New Identity: We are Christ’s (3)
When we repent of our sins and accept Christ as our Savior, Jesus becomes the Lord of our lives.
Christ died to reclaim the rightful Lordship over those whom he saves through faith in him.
We become his:
Our New Reality: We are Reborn (4)
We will dig deeper into this theme next week, but Paul makes clear that when we are saved we in essence die with Christ.
The call of salvation is a call to die so that our real life can begin.
So baptism is a picture of our new reality:
“My baptism signifies my identification with Jesus’ death on the cross, and that I am mystically crucified with Christ.
I identify with that act; I put my personal trust in the act of Christ on the cross, and as Christ was taken down from the cross and buried in the ground, so I, in terms of my old nature, am put to death and buried.”
R. C. Sproul
Our New Hope: The Promise of Heaven
Finally Paul notes that our baptism points to the hope we have in our future in Christ.
Because of Christ’s resurrection I have hope in the promise of my resurrection.
When we are baptized we are proclaiming the truth of Christ’s salvation but also our glorification in Christ.
