Best Answer

Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that baptism symbolizes being reborn in Christ.

When a Mormon is baptized, they are baptized by immersion, meaning that they are put totally under the water. When the person is laid into the water it symbolizes burying the old life, and when they rise up out of the water it symbolizes the birth a new life.

When a Mormon is baptized they believe that they take upon themselves the name of Jesus Christ, they are now qualified to be covered by His atoning blood to receive salvation.

Baptism washes away any past sins and makes you an official member of the Church. Nobody is baptized before age 8, because Mormons believe that children under age 8 are innocent.
