Best Answer

Baptism is important because it signifies the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. When a Christian is baptized, the person baptizing him/her says, "I now baptize you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Buried with Him in baptism and raised to walk in the newness of life." In Atcs 2:38, "Peter replied, 'repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, then you will receive the gift of the holy spirit."
