What does the Bible actually teach about baptism? For centuries, baptism has been debated, minimized, redefined, and in many cases reduced to little more than a religious symbol. Some call it an outward sign of an inward faith. Others say it is unnecessary. Still others replace it with Spirit baptism or emotional experience. But when we return to Scripture itself, the question is not what tradition says-it is what God has said. In See, Here Is Water, M. D. Rogers presents a thorough, Scripture-centered examination of biblical baptism using the New King James Version and a restoration approach rooted in New Testament authority. From Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus to Pentecost, from the Ethiopian eunuch to Saul of Tarsus, from Noah's flood to the doctrine of union with Christ, this book carefully traces the consistent pattern of obedient faith revealed throughout the Bible. Common objections are addressed directly and respectfully, including: The thief on the cross "He who does not believe will be condemned" The meaning of "for the remission of sins" The claim that baptism is only symbolic Spirit baptism and baptism by fire Each chapter allows Scripture to interpret Scripture, demonstrating that baptism is not a human work that earns salvation, but a divinely appointed response through which God applies the saving work of Christ. If salvation matters, obedience matters. If Jesus is Lord, His commands matter. And if the Bible speaks clearly, faithful hearts will listen. "See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?"
