These Sacraments

This work by St. Ambrose explores the theological significance of regeneration through resurrection and baptism. It references the interpretation of Psalm II by the apostle Peter in the Acts of the Apostles, linking the resurrection of Jesus as a form of regeneration. The text further explains that baptism, symbolizing immersion and rising, mirrors this resurrection. It suggests that just as creation brought forth life from earth and water, baptism allows individuals to be regenerated to grace, highlighting the transformative power of water in spiritual rebirth.
