Three Stages: Death / Resurrection / Declaration as Son of God

Romans 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God ... by the resurrection from the dead:

Colossians 1:18b ...who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead;

Revelation 1:who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Baptism=death

Romans 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death:

Consider the spiritual picture when Jesus was baptized by John:

Matthew 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

We find:

Baptism =death

coming up from water/baptism =coming up from death or resurrection

Declaration of Son ="This is My beloved Son..."

Same three stages in Christ's baptism as found in Romans 1:3,4, Colossians 1:18, etc.
