A proposito di questo titolo
 Baptism is one of the most debated topics in Christianity, but a closer look at the original Greek words of the New Testament reveals something that changes the entire conversation. Three Greek words are used in Scripture to describe washing and cleansing: nipto, which refers to washing a specific part of the body; luo, which describes a full bathing or complete cleansing; and pluno, which refers to the deep laundering of something to make it thoroughly clean. Each of these words appears in passages directly connected to baptism, and together they paint a consistent picture. In God's eyes, baptism is not merely a symbol or an outward sign. It is a cleansing. The blood of Jesus is the source of that cleansing. Without the blood, there is nothing to believe in, nothing to repent toward, and baptism would accomplish nothing. But the blood of Jesus reaches a person's life at a specific moment, and that moment is baptism. Scripture connects both the blood and baptism to justification, purification, and sanctification. Romans 5:9 tells us we are justified by His blood. First Corinthians 6:11 tells us that justification, sanctification, and washing all happen together in the name of Jesus and by the Spirit of God. Acts 22:16 commands a person to be baptized and wash away their sins. The blood is the how. Baptism is the when. This truth has real and personal implications. If you have been baptized, that moment was not just a public declaration or a religious ritual. It was the moment God's grace entered your life, the moment you were made new, set apart, and declared clean before God. Carrying that identity daily matters. And for those who have not yet been baptized, or for those who know someone weighed down by their past, Scripture offers a remarkable promise. Such were some of you. God no longer sees His people through the lens of who they were before. The blood of Jesus, received through baptism, has the power to wash away everything.
