Holy Baptism is the basis of the whole Christian life, the gateway to life in the Spirit (vitae spiritualis
ianua), and the door which gives access to the other sacraments. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and reborn as
sons of God; we become members of Christ, are incorporated into the Church and made sharers in her mission: "Baptism is the
sacrament of regeneration through water in the word."
