Baptism is important as it symbolizes a person's initiation into the Christian faith, representing a public declaration of faith and commitment to following Jesus. It signifies the washing away of sins and the beginning of a new life in Christ, aligning with teachings in the New Testament. Additionally, baptism fosters a sense of community among believers, as it connects individuals to the larger body of the Church.
Many similes were utilized by advocates of the Protestant Reformation, not just one, in their efforts to purify the Christian Faith: they likened the traditional authorities to blind persons, to crazy persons, to drunkards, to thieves, to demonic figures -- some even saw the Pope as 'like the Anti-Christ'; or, as Martin Luther sometimes claimed, the Pope was simply described as the Anti-Christ. In respect to the Protestant Reformation as an entire movement, several similes can be applied: it is (or, was) like the diversion of a river from one into many channels; or, it was like a mutiny aboard a ship that led to the formation of a new crew, a new ship, a new set of on-board rules, and much more, even if the same destination was still being sought.
The Reformation made it necessary to push religious messages in art to the background.
