問167: 我們應當如何增進我們受洗的益處?
答: 我們受洗之後,一生都要盡責任來增進洗禮的益處,這是必需的,卻常被忽略。特別是在受試探的時候,與當別人受洗而我們在場時,我們更是遵行此責任:
(1) 以認真與感恩的心,來思想洗禮的性質,與基督設立洗禮的目的,洗禮所帶來與印證的福分與特權,以及我們當初受洗時所許的莊嚴誓願;
(2) 謙卑悔改,為我們自己的犯罪玷污、軟弱跌倒辜負、偏行己路違背洗禮的恩典,以及我們受洗時的承諾;
(3) 長大成熟,更加確信此聖禮向我們印證的赦罪恩典,以及其他一切恩福;
(4) 我們受洗是歸入基督,我們要從祂的死與復活得力量,以治死罪與靠恩典復生;
(5) 竭力因信而活,在聖潔公義中說話行事為人,正如藉洗禮已將自己的名歸屬基督的人一樣;
(6) 弟兄姐妹彼此相愛,在愛中行事,因為我們都是從同一位聖靈受洗,成為一體。
Q. 167. How is baptism to be improved by us?
A. The needful but much neglected duty of improving our baptism, is to be performed by us all our life long, especially in the time of temptation, and when we are present at the administration of it to others; by serious and thankful consideration of the nature of it, and of the ends for which Christ instituted it, the privileges and benefits conferred and sealed thereby, and our solemn vow made therein; by being humbled for our sinful defilement, our falling short of, and walking contrary to, the grace of baptism, and our engagements; by growing up to assurance of pardon of sin, and of all other blessings sealed to us in that sacrament; by drawing strength from the death and resurrection of Christ, into whom we are baptized, for the mortifying of sin, and quickening of grace; and by endeavoring to live by faith, to have our conversation in holiness and righteousness, as those that have therein given up their names to Christ; and to walk in brotherly love, as being baptized by the same Spirit into one body.
