What is the Essence of Baptism?

It can be said that baptism is the foundation of Christian life. It is the door to life in the Holy Spirit and the entryway that allows other sacraments. Baptism is a one-time holy occasion in which, through this sacred moment, someone is being reborn as God’s daughter or son. Through the process of baptism, someone can start their Christian religious journey and their deep relationship with Jesus Christ and the Church.

The word ‘baptize’ itself stems from the Greek word ‘baptizo’, which is rooted in the word ‘bapto’. ‘Bapto’ is a word from the first century to describe a procedure of changing the color of a fabric after it had been cleansed. Thus is how baptize means to immerse in water.

Baptism means a rite of initiation and purification by pouring water on someone’s head as a symbol of the union with the death of Jesus. Similar to how Jesusu raised from death, the baptism symbolizes how they rise from the water as a new being and a member of the Church.

Historically, many believe that baptism first appeared in the Old Testament. In the New Testament, the first explicit mention of baptism is in the story of John the Baptist. His immersion in the Jordan River is explained as a baptism of repentance, which symbolizes having his sins forgiven. Later, when God asks John the Baptist to spread the word about the Messiah coming, John is instructed to baptize everyone who believes the news to forgive their sins. From this point, baptism has become a symbol for forgiveness and cleansing oneself from sins as delivered through the faith in Christ.

Generally, there are three common methods of baptism:

Immersion

A method of baptism in which someone’s body is fully submerged in the water, then raised back up. It symbolizes the death of their old life and the resurrection of Christ.

Affusion

A method of baptism by pouring water over the head while reciting the baptismal formula.

Aspersion

Special method of baptism for a baby by sprinkling water on their head.
