If something is for all, you might lack assurance that it’s for you. If something is for you, you might wonder whether it’s for all. Thankfully, God's gift of a Savior is both. God sent Jesus to be the Savior of the world, but the blessings he won for the world are delivered in specific and personal ways. This week we see how God uses baptism to identify his children. When it come to our biological families, we are identified not just by the names we give ourselves or the family traits we perhaps display. There is formal, external documentation that identifies us. In the same way, our status as God’s children is not contingent on our own self-declaration or our ability to resemble our heavenly Father in our conduct. Rather the formal, external act of baptism is the means by which he marks us as his own.
