What is Baptism?

Baptism is a sacrament of the New Testament, wherein Christ has ordained the washing with water in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost,a to be a sign and seal of engrafting into himself,b of remission of sins by his blood,c and regeneration by his Spirit;d of adoption,e and resurrection unto everlasting life;f and whereby the parties baptized are solemnly admitted into the visible church,g and enter into an open and professed engagement to be wholly and only the Lord’s.h
