Baptism

Baptism

The question must be asked, what was the true meaning behind water baptism? Is it to be believed, that all it takes to receive salvation is a little water and the saying of the words, "I believe" and not the works of the Law in the faith of Yahwashi?

John the Baptist’s water baptism symbolized the spiritual death of the disobedient-sinful person being dipped and he or she rises from the water a new creature repentant-keeping the Most High’s commandments. But today all too often that same sinful person rises as a wet sinful person, nothing changes.

 Psalms 119:9– Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.” In order to “cleanse” your sinful ways and be baptized in Christ, repenting Israelites must take “heed” to the “word” of the Most High by keeping the Commandments. 

1st John 2:3-4.
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.

The only way you can please the Father is through your utter complete obedience you cleanse your way through your compliance you become clean because you've obeyed.

Jeremiah 4:14- O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?

Jeremiah told Israel to wash their heart (mind) from wickedness! Only the law can wash the heart.

What’s the Heart? (the mind)

Mark 7:21- For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
22- Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
23- All these evil things come from within and defile the man.”

And all these things would have to be cleansed by the keeping of Yah's laws through the power of the holy spirt. 

Isaiah 1:16- Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

So even Isaiah explains the Wash that makes us clean is putting away our evil doings not going down in water.

How? Keep the Law!

I Peter 3:21-kjv The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but The Answer Of A Good Conscience Toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

Not the putting away of the filth of the flesh,” meaning by sprinkling or dipping the body in water, (water baptism).

Therefore, the only baptism that can “save us” is a “good conscience toward God,” which means the Israelites must keep the Commandments by the holy spirt.
 
Romans 8:26
26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: (our weakness in the flesh) for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
 

Ephesians 5:26- That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,

The Most High will cleanses us from sin by the “law” which is in the Messiah.

John 3:36
36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

Only when an Israelite repents and keeps the Laws in the Messiah, will the Yah “sanctify” and “cleanse” them, and not by the dipping in water. 

Psalms 19:7- The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.

The keeping of the “law” through Christ is the wisdom that converts the soul from sin. This is truly being born again/baptized.

1st Corinthians 10:
1- Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, how that all our fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2- And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3- And did all eat the same spiritual meat;
4- And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.

And were all baptized unto Moses” meaning the Children of Israel were taught the Laws during the time of Moses after being delivered from the Egyptians.  Likewise, today the Children of Israel shall be baptized/taught the laws in the faith of Yahawashi.

Water Baptism symbolizes an Israelite cleansing their spirit (mind) from sin by prayer and by keeping the Commandments. In the same manner, as the body must be washed physically from dirt with soap and water, so must the mind be cleansed from sin with spirit, the Laws. Our minds are dirty with sin, adultery, hatred, lying, homosexuality, drunkenness etc. only the Laws can cleanse those sins and the power to hold fast in the faith (the power of the Holy Ghost), not water. The Israelites no longer have to be baptized in water as John the Baptist practiced, but must now be baptized with the commandments in the faith of Yahawashi by the fire of the Holy Ghost.
