It expresses in emblem the believers death to sin and resurrection to newness of life (which occurred in repentance and faith). The church is under obligation to keep it as we receive it.

Blood before water. . . water before church membership. Salvation separates you from sin; ---- Baptism separates you from sinners; Repentance & Faith Private ---Baptism is Public; Salvation Internal --- Baptism External; Salvation is of Grace ---- Baptism Works; Salvation separates you from sin; ---- Baptism separates you from sinners.An official act must be performed by an officer. An officer must have been put in office by the organization under which he holds office and to which he is responsible for the exercise of official functions.
