Understanding Baptism (认识洗礼)

What’s the big deal about baptism?

Jesus commands his disciples to be baptized, and it’s a glorious picture of a person’s union with Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection. Still, many Christians feel unclear about the topic, having more questions than answers. This short work provides a biblical explanation of baptism. What is it? Who should be baptized? Why is it required for church membership? And how should churches practice baptism?

Note: Due to the fact that 9Marks is a non-denominational organization, The Church Basics Series is not branded as a 9Marks resource. However, we believe it is widely helpful to the worldwide church and commend it for use.

洗礼为何如此重要？

耶稣吩咐门徒要受洗。洗礼展现了一个人在耶稣的受死、埋葬和复活上与他联合的荣耀画面。然而，许多基督徒对此不甚了解，脑海中的问题多过答案。这本小书基于圣经提供了对洗礼的解释：洗礼是什么？谁应该受洗？为什么成为教会成员必须先受洗？教会又应当如何施洗？

注意：由于九标志事工是一个跨宗派机构，所以“教会论基础”丛书并不属于九标志事工资源。但是我们相信这一系列小册子会给普世教会带去帮助，所以推荐大家使用。
