Baptism & Christian Identity

Read:

Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, ² instruction about cleansing rites, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

Hebrews 6:1-2.

Hebrews 6:2 says that an elementary part of following Christ involved instruction about cleansing rites. In this third unit, we need to work out what on earth that is. At it turns out, this is referring to Baptism and the need to receive a new Christian identity as a believer.
