There is a lot of modern confusion regarding Water Baptism. Some equate it to salvation and others deem it as meaningless. Biblically and Historically, water baptism is essential to the Christian faith. Jesus included water baptism in His great commission to the Church and every revival has also been a revival of water baptism. The word 'sacrament' means 'holy mystery,' and this is exactly what water baptism is - there is no magic in the water, but there is power in the name of Jesus and obedience to His commands.
