BAPTIZED IN HIS DEATH

Posted on: 29-06-2013


As a follower of Christianity all of us take baptism, but do you understand how many are really aware of title mentioned above. This title is not the by product of my imagination or thinking, rather it is a manifestation of Holy Spirit about Christ Jesus in roman 6: 3and 4, “Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” The word baptized means to be immersed, in spiritual realm it means in immersed in word of GOD. The reason why we need to be immersed is explained in Romans 4:18, “Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.” The eternal enemy of mankind does not want to be in hopeful in life, rather want us to be hopeless in life. Depression, rejection, oppression, obsession and possession are well known tool of this enemy called as SATAN, or Lucifer, or old serpent, or Devil. We can believe in hope in our lives thorough the word of GOD i.e. revelation about JESUS CHRIST. Another thing as explained by Master Christ is this condition is not a once in a blue moon, or an occasional event happening, but rather it is other way round as explained in Luke 9:23, “And he (Master Christ Jesus) SAID TO THEM ALL, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” It is an everyday event happening every moment of our live to all of us not any one particular but whoso ever wishes to come near in hope of Christ and goes on , till we are alive on the face of earth. We can stand in it only thorough word of GOD. 

Further this is manifested in the supper of the Lord  which we take once or twice in month as mentioned in 1 Corinthians 11:26, “For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, YE DO SHEW THE LORD'S DEATH TILL HE COME.”  When he master Christ will come, “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”

And the very GOD of peace sanctifies you wholly; and i pray GOD your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.

 

AMEN !
