In John 17:20, Jesus prays for them which shall believe on me through their word. After His resurrection, Jesus commissions His disciples, in Matt. 28:19, Mark 16:16, and John 20:23, to teach all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and the Holy Ghost. . .Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them. . .He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. In Acts 2:38 and 22:16, Peter and Paul, through the word of teaching and baptism, offer the remission of sins to the nations. Paul explains in Gal. 3:26, 27 that, in our baptism, we put on Christ by faith.
