Lesson 9

Baptism in Salvation History

Baptism is prefigured throughout Salvation History.

Lesson Vocabulary

  • Baptism
    :
    The first Sacrament we receive. Baptism makes us members of the Church, forgives our sins, and gives us new life in Christ. It is necessary for salvation. The celebration of Baptism involves being immersed in water or having water poured over one’s head in the name of the Holy Trinity. (804, 1275, 1277-1279, 2020)
  • Indelible Mark
    :
    A permanent, un-removable spiritual seal or mark placed on our souls by God in the Sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation, and upon those who receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders, that set us apart as belonging to God. The baptismal seal allows us to participate in the Mass, and use the Gifts of the Holy Spirit to live lives of holiness. The seal of Confirmation strengthens us to be witnesses of the Gospel in the battle between good and evil waged all around us. (1280, 1317, 1597)
  • Original Sin
    :
    The first sin of Adam and Eve that brought pain, suffering, and death into the world. Because we are all descendants of Adam and Eve we are all born with Original Sin in our souls. We need to be baptized to remove the stain of Original Sin. The effects of Original Sin remain, however. For example, we tend to sin, we suffer, and die. (417, 418, 419, 1279, 1714)
