Water baptism symbolizes the believer’s total trust in and total reliance on the Lord Jesus Christ, as well as a commitment to live obediently to Him. It also expresses unity with all the saints (Ephesians 2:19), that is, with every person in every nation on earth who is a member of the Body of Christ (Galatians 3:27–28). Water baptism conveys this and more, but it is not what saves us. Instead, we are saved by grace through faith, apart from works (Ephesians 2:8–9). We are baptized because our Lord commanded it: “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19).
God says what matters most in life is not your accomplishments, or your achievements, your title, or your wealth…but your faith that makes you love others. The Scripture says if you miss this you have missed the most important thing in life.
Over the next six, weeks we are going to focus on what matters most to God…strengthening our faith that makes us love others. We are going to focus on three primary areas…three communities:
1. The community of our church.
2. The community of our small group.
3. The community of the world around us.
