2. True baptism is into the death and resurrection of Jesus. Seeing that when Jesus spoke to the thief neither of those events had occurred, baptism into Christ was not possible.
Ubatizo wa kweli ni katika mauti na ufufuo wa Yesu. Kwa kuwa Yesu alipozungumza na mnyang’anyi wala matukio hayo hayakutokea, kubatizwa katika Kristo haukuwezekana.
