Romans 6:1-14: Live a New Life

Parker Ford Church's Podcast

This weekend we celebrate the saving and redeeming work of Christ symbolized through baptism. Baptism is a picture of our death into the death of Christ, our burial with Him, and our hope in the future Resurrection. When a person goes down into the water it shows that they have been crucified and buried with Christ. When they emerge from the water it reveals that they have been raised to new life in Jesus. "We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life" (Romans 6:4, NIV).
