BAPTISM THROUGHOUT THE BIBLE

Baptism is one of the most important-and often debated-subjects in the Christian faith.
What does baptism truly mean?
Is it primarily a symbol, an act of obedience, a participation in Christ's death and resurrection, or something more?
What does the Bible teach about the relationship between baptism, salvation, faith, repentance, and the new birth?
And what about the children of believers? Does Scripture present them as outsiders to God's covenant promises, or as participants in His unfolding redemptive plan?
In Baptism Throughout the Bible: The Promise Is For You... And Your Children, Gerald Onuoha takes readers on a Scripture-centered journey from Genesis to Revelation, examining baptism through the lens of God's covenant dealings with His people.
Rather than relying on denominational traditions, this study carefully explores the biblical evidence surrounding:
• The meaning and purpose of baptism
• Baptism and union with Christ
• Salvation through water in Scripture
• Born of water and the Spirit
• Apostolic baptism in the Book of Acts
• Baptism in the name of Jesus
• Immersion, pouring, and sprinkling
• The inclusion of households in God's covenant plan
• Little children and the kingdom of God
• Covenant patterns throughout redemptive history
• The responsibilities of Christian parents
Whether you are exploring baptism for the first time, reconsidering long-held assumptions, preparing for ministry, or seeking a deeper understanding of Scripture, this book will challenge you to examine the biblical text carefully and allow Scripture to speak for itself.
Grounded in Scripture, respectful toward differing viewpoints, and committed to biblical clarity, Baptism Throughout the Bible invites readers to rediscover God's covenant promise:
"The promise is for you and your children..." (Acts 2:39)
