    About this ebook

    Do you want to progress in your spiritual experience? Are you being as perfect a Christian as you can be? Then this book is for you. Hebrews 6:12: Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on into perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance again from dead works, and of faith toward God, Of the doctrine of baptisms. Understanding the doctrine of baptisms will help in finding the pathway to perfection in Christ. Many Christians do not understand that there are seven baptisms named in the New Testament. Each of the seven baptisms leads to perfection in our Christian lives. We are to constantly strive for perfection. Understanding the depth of each baptism will greatly enhance faith in God, adding confidence in the leading of the Holy Spirit. Each baptism will mark a change in life. Each baptism becomes a mile marker on the road to perfection in Christ. This book will help you understand that all things work together for good to them that love God (Romans 8:28). God has a plan for our spiritual growth. Great joy awaits those who follow the pursuit of perfection.

    Wayne Rosson

    I have been privileged to serve the Lord as pastor for fifty-five of my sixty-two years of licensed ministry. The last twenty-eight years were at one church. In answering a question of an attendee concerning water baptism, I found water baptism was only one baptism of seven baptisms named in the New Testament. This writing is an effort to aid believers in their pursuit of being mature in Christ. After sixty years of ministry, I have retired from the pastorate, and I live in Cleveland, Tennessee. My wife gained her eternal reward in July 2012. We have one son who serves the Lord as a missionary. He supervises the work of our denomination in several countries in eastern Europe.
