Theme for the Week: DEAD TO SIN, ALIVE IN CHRIST
Reading: Matthew 28:16-20
_______________________
Matthew 28:19 (NIV)
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Although trinity is not a word the Bible explicitly used, its concept is biblical as seen in the Scripture above.
It is important to be baptized in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit (the Trinity) to signify the power under which you are submitting to.
This also initiates you into the life in Christ, as it makes you conscious of your old evil self and the new life in Christ Jesus.
As all power has been given to Jesus Christ, let us not allow ourselves to be initiated to submit to any other power than that which is of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Shalom.
Let's Pray:
Almighty Father, we bless You. Lord, may all that You give us through Jesus Christ, Your Son, see the need to be baptized in the Trinity, in Jesus' name. Amen.
