Baptism Word Search
This baptism word search covers the sacrament and its customs: water poured at the font or a full immersion in a river, godparents or a sponsor, the white christening gown, the baptismal candle, and John the Baptist at the Jordan.
The word comes from the Greek baptizein, to dip or plunge. Mark's Gospel opens with John baptizing in the Jordan and Jesus coming from Nazareth to be baptized there, when the Spirit came down on him like a dove. Matthew ends with the command to baptize in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, the words still said over the water in most churches today.
Churches differ on who is baptized and how. Catholic, Orthodox, Lutheran and Methodist churches baptize infants, while Baptist and many other churches baptize only believers old enough to make their own profession of faith, usually by immersion. Orthodox priests dip babies three times. Medieval cities built separate baptistery buildings, and Dante was baptized in the one in Florence, which he mentions in the Inferno.
