What does such baptizing with water indicate?
It indicates that the Old Adam in us
should by daily contrition and repentance
be drowned and die with all sins and evil desires,
and that a new man should daily emerge and arise
to live before God in righteousness and purity forever.
Where is this written?
 St. Paul writes in Romans chapter six:
"We were therefore buried with Him
through baptism into death
in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead
through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life" (Romans 6:4).
