Water baptism and the communion are two important practices given to believers in Christ, but what do they truly mean according to Scripture?In Two Important Sacraments, Sam Royalty presents a careful biblical examination of water baptism and the communion, separating scriptural truth from traditions and assumptions that have developed around these practices. The book examines the meaning and purpose of water baptism, why immersion properly represents the biblical picture of baptism, and the relationship between baptism and the believer's identification with Christ.
It also explores the communion as an act of fellowship and remembrance, examining the bread and the cup, the significance of Christ's sacrifice, and important passages that are often misunderstood. Readers will also discover why Scripture does not establish a fixed frequency for taking the communion and why believers should understand its purpose rather than turn the practice into a religious obligation.
Written for Christians who desire to understand these subjects directly from Scripture, Two Important Sacraments encourages believers to approach baptism and communion with biblical understanding, faith, and appreciation for the finished work of Christ.
