But flee from these things, you man of God, and pursue righteousness,

godliness, faith, love, perseverance and gentleness. ~ 1 Timothy 6:11

What is Baptism?

(This post is part of a mini-series on Baptism.)

What is Baptism?

Baptism is Sacrament of the Church. It is through Baptism that one officially becomes a member of the Church.
"Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis ianua), and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the sacrament of regeneration through water in the word." ~ CCC 1213

Keep Pursuing
