Baptism is for the forgiveness of the original sin, the sin of disobedience that was placed on us by the original sin of Adam and Eve when they disobeyed Yahweh and ate of the forbidden fruit from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. By accepting Yeshua as your Lord and Saviour you are saved from all your sin that you have committed and to be admitted into Heaven. We have all sinned and come short of the Glory of Yahweh. Yeshua paid the price for our sin the sin of every person ever on earth. Only if you take, accept, Yeshua as your Saviour will you be allowed into Heaven. You must give more of your life to Yeshua and not just lip service to be truly saved. Yahweh said He would rather you be HOT, on fire for Yeshua, or COLD then He knows where you stand as an atheist. If you are LUKEWARM, He will spew you out as you are wishy-washy and don't know where you stand. Yahweh gives us the choice. Chose Yeshua!

Water baptism harks back to the flood, but instead of death, signifies a renewed faith in God, and repentance, fire is when Christ will divide the wheat and the chaff, and the holy spirit is a continuation of the water baptism, in which the person is reborn of the spirit, hence reuniting us to God as his holy spirit dwells within our temple. (People often don't understand how powerful this is). Hence, the Lord's prayer is the most perfect prayer ever. OUR FATHER or Pater Noster, shows our relationship with God, it recognises God as all powerful, and holy, it calls for heaven to come to earth, both in the individual and the earth in general, it recognises the need for the basics, then comes the "Ours" Forgive us Our sins, as We forgive those who sin against us, this is the measuring stick, this is how WE are to be changed together. Lead US not into temptation, but deliver US from evil. Imagine a world like this. "Forgive us Our spelling mistakes, as we forgive those who make spelling mitsakes."
