In this study, Ed establishes the definition and purpose of baptism. Baptism is for . . . Every unforgiven person who can believe in Christ, who can repent of sin, who can be educated to repent of a sinful life. Baptism is for people, who of their own free will, can arise and obey the commandment to be immersed. Baptism is for people with guilty consciences who want to be saved and appeal to God for a clear conscience. God adds the saved to the church, which is the church's distinctive nature. You can identify the church in the same way you identify any saved person on earth.
