大要理问答167问 如何使我们的洗礼更加有效呢?
王志勇版
167问：如何使我们的洗礼更加有效呢?
答：要使我们洗礼更加有效，是人人常常忽视的当尽的责任，是我们一生一 世都当履行的事，特别是在受试探的时候，当我们出席他人洗礼的时候，更当如此（西2:11－12；罗6:4，6，11）。使我们的洗礼更加有效的方法就是:
（1） 以感恩的心认真地思考洗礼的性质，基督设立洗礼的目的，洗礼所施与并印证的特权和恩惠，以及我们受 洗时所发的庄重誓言（罗6:3－5）；
（2） 要因我们的罪污，对洗礼之恩和承诺的亏负、背离而谦卑下来（林前1:11－13；罗6:2－3）；
（3） 逐渐确信罪已蒙赦，以及其它在洗礼中所印证的各样福分（罗4:11－12；彼前3:21）；
（4） 从基督的受死与复活中吸取力量，我们受洗是归入祂，为要我们治死罪，在恩典里苏醒（罗6:3－5）；
（5） 努力靠信心生活（加3:26－27），行事为人 圣洁公义（罗6:22），正如那些在洗礼中把自己的名字交托给基督的人一样（徒2:38）；
（6） 弟兄姊妹彼此相爱，因为我们由同一圣灵受洗，归入同一身体（林前12:13，25－27）。

问167: 我们应当如何增进我们受洗的益处?
答: 我们受洗之后，一生都要尽责任来增进洗礼的益处，这是必需的，却常被忽略。特别是在受试探的时候，与当别人受洗而我们在场时，我们更是遵行此责任:
(1) 以认真与感恩的心，来思想洗礼的性质，与基督设立洗礼的目的，洗礼所带来与印证的福分与特权，以及我们当初受洗时所许的庄严誓愿；
(2) 谦卑悔改，为我们自己的犯罪玷污、软弱跌倒辜负、偏行己路违背洗礼的恩典，以及我们受洗时的承诺；
(3) 长大成熟，更加确信此圣礼向我们印证的赦罪恩典，以及其他一切恩福；
(4) 我们受洗是归入基督，我们要从祂的死与复活得力量，以治死罪与靠恩典复生；
(5) 竭力因信而活，在圣洁公义中说话行事为人，正如藉洗礼已将自己的名归属基督的人一样；
(6) 弟兄姐妹彼此相爱，在爱中行事，因为我们都是从同一位圣灵受洗，成为一体。

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.

Proof Scripture Verses
[1068] Colossians 2:11-12. In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. Romans 6:4, 6, 11. Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.... Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.... Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
[1069] Romans 6:3-5. Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.
[1070] 1 Corinthians 1:11-13. For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? Romans 6:2-3. God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
[1071] Romans 4:11-12. And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also: And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised. 1 Peter 3:21. The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
[1072] Romans 6:3-5. Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection.
[1073] Galatians 3:26-27. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
[1074] Romans 6:22. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
[1075] Acts 2:38. Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
[1076] 1 Corinthians 12:13, 25. For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.... That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
