Catechism

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." ~ ARTICLE 1:1213

Prefigurations of Baptism in the Old Covenant

The Church has seen in Noah's ark a prefiguring of salvation by Baptism, for by it "a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water":

"The waters of the great flood
you made a sign of the waters of Baptism,
that make an end of sin and a new beginning of goodness."

Mark
