So the other day we got a call telling us that we needed to bring our car to a meeting because they were going to be selling it and we were going to be getting a different one, so we cleaned up the inside and the out so that it would be nice for the next people who were to receive the wonderful Malibu that we had. After the meeting I traded the keys of the Malibu for a brand new corolla. After driving it for only a few minute I was able to see and feel quite a few changes in the way that the two cars differed from each other which was a lot.
So we will start with the old car. It was a little dirty inside and out which is kind of like how we are before we are baptized we still have some of the things that we did in the past that we don't feel good about.
So we must start some place right?
Well with the car we had to start to clean it which is a lot like when we start the process of repentance. Once we were done cleaning the car it looked great but it still wasn't like it was when it was brand new it still had some stains in the carpets and a scratch here and there, which is a lot like how we are when we have repented we have asked God for forgiveness but sometimes we still remember some of the bad things in our past.
How can we become like a brand new car you might ask?
The only way that we can become completely clean from our former sins is by being baptized. Once we have been baptized, all of our former sins can be washed away and we can be just like a brand new car; no more stains or scratch’s to worry about.

Let's compare the new car smell to the way that we can feel after we are baptized.
