Rom 6:3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
This clearly shows I was baptized into his death, which is another reason I believe emphatically that baptism should performed in the Name of The Lord Jesus Christ (not just FSH). Baptism identifies us with what Christ did for us
Rom 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Rom 6:5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
This clearly shows again that water baptism is what is being talked about.
Rom 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
...And I have been crucified with Him (Amen)
Gal 2:20
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
