Dr. Larson highlights the biblical teaching that baptism is a burial into the death of Christ, liberating us from our sinful nature. By dying to the old self through the waters of baptism, the believer is freed from the power of sin and united with Jesus in His resurrection. As St. Paul proclaims, "We shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like His."
