Do You Know the Meaning of Why Jesus Was Baptized? [Christian Testimony 36]

 

Though I cannot help but sin, Jesus knew that I was bound to sin and, from His side, took away all my sins once and for all.

When Jesus was Baptized, all our past, present, and future sins were passed to Jesus by John the Baptist. This was the true image of what was happening in the Old Testament, where the high priest would pass all the sins of the Israelites to the sacrificial animal through laying on of hands. John the Baptist, the last high priest descended from Aaron, passed all the sins of the world to Jesus, who came as the Lamb of God, through baptism, thus taking away all the sins of the world.

Now, I am without sin because I believe that Jesus took away all my past, present, and future sins when He was baptized.

Repentance is not asking for forgiveness of each sin but turning to the Word of God.

Though I cannot help but sin, Jesus knew that I was bound to sin and, from His side, took away all my sins once and for all. So what I do to resolve my present and future sins is to return to God through faith in the gospel of the water, blood, and the Spirit, which tells me that Jesus took away all my past, present, and future sins.

Before believing in the Gospel of Water and Spirit, I had sin in my heart even though I believed in Jesus.

This was because I did not understand the true meaning of Jesus’ Baptism. I did not know before that He was baptized to take away all my sins.

The difference between my faith before and after hearing the gospel of the Water and Spirit preached in Volume 1 of Pastor Paul C. Jong’s sermon series, “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” from The New Life Mission, is that my faith is now truly stable. Before, my faith kept changing; if I did good, I would feel as if God was together with me, and if I did bad, I would feel as if God was not together with me. I used to pray with tears of repentance every day for my sins, asking God to give me a good end. But from the time I believed in the Gospel of Water and Spirit, I came to realize that all my sins were already blotted out and that I will go to heaven.

I am thankful to God for giving us the true Gospel through which we can be saved from all our sins.

I am also grateful to The New Life Mission for guiding me to the path of salvation through Pastor Paul C. Jong’s evangelistic book “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?”

Now, I too will spread the gospel of the water and the Spirit, which is God’s will, to as many people as possible so that others may also receive salvation.

Baptism That Save Us Through Jesus' Baptism Among Three Types of Baptisms Recorded in the Bible [ Bible Study 1]

Image
  The Meaning of Three Types of Baptisms Recorded in the Bible There are three types of baptisms in the Bible: John the Baptist’s baptism for repentance, Jesus’ baptism from John the Baptist, and the water baptism received by believers. 1. Jesus’ Baptism from John the Baptist First, the baptism that Jesus received from John the Baptist in the Jordan River was, just as sins were imputed to sacrificial offerings through laying on of hands in the Old Testament, a baptism He received as the Lamb of God to have all the sins of humanity imputed to Him. This was the beginning of God’s just plan of salvation, and through baptism, Jesus took upon Himself all the sins of the world in a just manner through imputation. ‘But Jesus answered and said to him, “Permit it to be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him. When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit ...

Which Came First: Faith in God's Righteousness or the Law? [Bible Study 2]

Image
  Before giving the Law, God first gave the righteousness of faith to become children of God through faith.  As recorded in Genesis, Adam and Eve, Abel, Seth and Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and his descendants were justified by faith in God’s Word without the Law. Genesis 15:6 “And he believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.” However, during their 400 years of slavery in Egypt, the Israelites lost this righteousness of faith and lost God. Therefore, God gave the Law through Moses to let them know that God exists, and to make them realize their sins and return to the holy God. And He gave the sacrificial system to the Israelites who were under the curse of the Law (in sin) so that they could receive redemption through the atonement of sins. Looking at the sacrificial offerings that God established in the Old Testament: 1. There were sin offerings offered by individuals 2. There was the Great Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) once a year to atone fo...

I am truly thankful to God that I can testify through this Christian blog about becoming sinless through the gospel of water and the Spirit. [Christian Testimony 14]

Image
  Thank you, Pastor. Speaking of my testimony on this Christian blog , I can say that I am living a fulfilled life today. This is because the gospel of water and the Spirit has given meaning to my life. The problem of mankind lies in sin. It is also problematic that Christians remain in sin. However, Pastor Paul C. Jong’s teachings completely liberate us from the burden of sin. Faith based only on Jesus’ blood on the cross is a burden that false pastors impose to keep us in bondage for life, and this is truly a serious problem today. Fortunately, in my case, I had the opportunity to discover this beautiful gospel of water, blood, and the Spirit through Pastor Paul C. Jong’s eBook “Have You Truly Been Born Again of Water and the Spirit?” which can be freely downloaded from The New Life Mission’s website, translated into languages worldwide. I am truly grateful to God for leading me to this gospel. I really need your encouragement to become a faithful co-worker in this beautiful m...

Are you still living in sin because of wrong beliefs? [Christian Testimony 8]

Image
  The "baptism" that Jesus Christ was baptized by John the Baptist was the only way Christ took upon Himself all our sins. Through the baptism from John the Baptist, who was a high priest according to the order of Aaron, He took on the sins of the world, and afterward paid the price for all these sins by shedding His blood on the cross. The cross is actually the result of Jesus Christ taking our sins through baptism. If Jesus had not been baptized, His death would have been meaningless. Now I am righteous and sinless through faith in the gospel of water and the Spirit. And the resolution for future sins can be achieved by acknowledging my sins and through God’s righteous law of salvation. The faith of the righteous is believing that when we confess our sins, even these sins were already taken by Christ 2000 years ago through His baptism, and He paid the price for them by shedding His blood on the cross. In the past, before I encountered the gospel of water and the Spirit, eve...
