Baptism is about our need for the Holy Spirit. It is far more about the good work that God is going to do in us. It is important for us to fully understand what God does at baptism. Joe Dobson gives four points: 1) Foundation of our faith in Jesus Christ; 2) Repentance; 3) Devoted to obeying God and being fully yielded to how we must change. 4) God is the Father and originator of the divine family.
