Batismo
O batismo é mandamento de Jesus e proclamação pública de fé. É símbolo de morte para o pecado, sepultamento com Cristo e ressurreição para uma vida nova no Espírito.
O mandamento de Jesus
Ide e fazei discípulos, batizando-os em nome do Pai, do Filho e do Espírito Santo. O batismo é porta de entrada na comunidade cristã.

Morrer e ressuscitar
Fomos sepultados com Cristo pelo batismo na morte para que andemos em novidade de vida. O batismo é renascimento pelo Espírito.
