This work presents a brief trearment of baptism in the New Testament and the author's personal conceprion of the sacrament as a divine-human symbol. The most significant element of New Testament teaching on baptism is the emphasis on the principal agents: God/Father, Son/Christ and Spirit. Any satisfactory conception of the Christian sacrament must take into account the roles of the Three. William A. Van Roo is a Jesuit of the Wisconsin Province in the U.S.A: . He was a professor of theology in Gregorian University from 1951 to 1985 then professor emeritus
