Let’s examine another misunderstood subject, baptism for the dead. Paul speaks about baptism for the dead in I Corinthians 15:29-31 “Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead? And why stand we in jeopardy every hour? I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.”
Kama wafu hawafufuliwi kamwe, kwa nini kubatizwa kwa ajili yao? Na sisi, kwa nini tumo hatarini kila saa? Naam, ndugu, kwa huku kujisifu kwangu niliko nako juu yenu katika Kristo Yesu Bwana wetu, ninakufa kila siku.”
