Baptism is not an accomplishment, but a statement - a symbolic statement for those of us that God has saved, of something that has happened and is going to happen beyond it - a visual statement of a life received and a life to be lived, no longer defined by what God calls wrong, but defined by what God calls right. We are going to see this in Romans 6:1-14, as we look at our baptism into Christ’s death to sin and life to God, under three reminders: a reminder that we have been baptized into the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ; a reminder that we have been raised with Christ into a living relationship with God; and a reminder that we have been raised with Christ to live in righteousness with God.
