Baptism Edi Akpan N̄kpọ!
Jesus ọkọdọhọ ke ana mbon emi ẹyomde ndidi Christian ẹna baptism. (Kot Matthew 28:19, 20.) Nso idi baptism? Nso ke owo akpanam man odot ndina baptism?
1. Nso idi baptism?
Ẹda ikọ oro baptism ẹto ikọ Greek emi ọwọrọde “bụk,” m̀mê nyịni ke mmọn̄. John ama enyịni Jesus ofụri idem ke mmọn̄ ini enye ekenịmde Jesus baptism ke Akpa Jordan, ndien Jesus “ọwọrọ ke mmọn̄.” (Matthew 3:13, 16) Ntre ke ata mme Christian ẹsinịm owo baptism. Mmọ ẹsibụk owo ofụri idem ke mmọn̄ ini ẹnịmde owo baptism.
2. Nso ke owo ndina baptism esiwụt?
Baptism esiwụt ke owo ama ayak uwem esie, m̀mê idemesie, ọnọ Jehovah Abasi. Didie ke owo esiyak idem ọnọ Abasi? Owo esiyak idem ọnọ Jehovah ke ini owo ọbọn̄de akam ọdọhọ Jehovah ke iyanam n̄kpọ esie ke ofụri eyo uwem imọ—enye esinam oro mbemiso usen baptism. Enye esin̄wọn̄ọ ke iyokpono Jehovah, ke ndinam uduak esie edi ata akpan n̄kpọ ke uwem imọ. Enye esinyụn̄ “akan̄ idemesie onyụn̄ . . . aka iso etiene” se Jesus ekekpepde onyụn̄ anamde. (Matthew 16:24) Ndiyak idem nnọ Jehovah Abasi nnyụn̄ nna baptism esinam owo enen̄ede ekpere Jehovah ye ikọt esie.
3. Nso ke owo akpanam man odot ndina baptism?
Afo oyodot ndina baptism edieke ekpepde n̄kpọ aban̄a Jehovah onyụn̄ enen̄erede ọbuọt idem ye enye. (Kot Mme Hebrew 11:6.) Nte afo ọdiọn̄ọde Jehovah aka onyụn̄ ọbuọtde idem ye enye, ntre ke afo editetịm ima enye. Oro ayanam enenem fi nditịn̄ mban̄a enye nnyụn̄ nnam se enye amade. (2 Timothy 4:2; 1 John 5:3) Owo emi asan̄ade “nte odotde ye Jehovah,” m̀mê emi odude uwem nte Jehovah amade, ekeme ndiyak idem nnọ Jehovah Abasi onyụn̄ ana baptism.—Colossae 1:9, 10. a

4. Imekeme ndikpep n̄kpọ nto baptism Jesus

Ndi Jesus ekedi nsekeyen ini enye akanade baptism?

Ẹkenịm Jesus baptism didie? Ndi ẹkesesịme enye mmọn̄? Ndi ẹketọtọhọ enye mmọn̄ ke ibuot?
Jesus ọkọtọn̄ọ akpan utom emi Abasi ọkọdọn̄de enye ke enye ama akana baptism ama. Kot Luke 3:21-23 ye John 6:38, ekem ẹbọrọ mbụme emi ẹnyụn̄ ẹneme ẹban̄a enye:
-
Nso ikedi ata akpan utom Jesus ke Jesus ama akana baptism ama?

-
Isiyak idem inọ Jehovah ke ini ibọn̄de akam idọhọ enye ke iyanam n̄kpọ esie ke ofụri eyo uwem nnyịn
-
Ke ini inade baptism, isiwụt ke ima iyak idem inọ Abasi
6. Baptism esinam Jehovah abat owo esịn ke otu ikọt esie
Ke ini inade baptism, imetiene idụk ubon ikọt Abasi emi ẹdianade kiet ẹnyụn̄ ẹdude ke ofụri ererimbot. Kpa ye oro itode nsio nsio itie ye nsio nsio ubon, kpukpru nnyịn inịm ukem n̄kpọ isinyụn̄ idu uwem nte Abasi oyomde. Kot Psalm 25:14 ye 1 Peter 2:17, ekem ẹbọrọ mbụme emi ẹnyụn̄ ẹneme ẹban̄a enye:
-
Didie ke owo ndina baptism ekeme ndinam owo ekpere Jehovah ye ikọt esie?
NDUSỤK OWO ẸSIDỌHỌ ẸTE: “Mben̄eke idem kan̄a ndina baptism.”
-
Ekpededi etie fi ntre, ndi emekere ke ufọn osụk odu ndina baptism?
