  11. What does Baptism do? To answer the question of what baptism does, we should not look to the wisdom of men but to the word of God. "It is most likely that in the Apostolic age when there was but "one Lord, one faith, and one baptism," and no differing denominations existed, the baptism of a convert by that very act constituted him a member of the church, and at once endowed him with all the rights and privileges of full membership. In that sense, 'baptism was the door into the church.' Now, it is different..." Eward T. Hiscox Standard Manuel for Baptist Churches

In so doing, they have the body washed in pure water as an outward symbol of cleansing, while their heart has already been sprinkled with the blood of Christ as an inner cleansing.” Benny Hinn ministries We Believe
