Sacrament of Baptism

Baptism, the gateway to the sacraments, is necessary for salvation, either by actual reception or at least by desire.  By it people are feed from sins, are born again as children of God and, made like Christ by an indelible character, are incorporated in the Church.  It is validly conferred by a washing in real water with the proper form of words.
