=== Explanatory rites & seal of the spirit ===
Post-baptismal rituals symbolize the candidate’s new identity. Roman Catholics include ''[[Roman Rite|Explanatory Rites]]'': [[Chrismation|anointing with chrism]] (''Seal of the Spirit''), clothing in a white garment, presentation of a lighted candle, and the ''Ephphetha'' prayer. Episcopalians offer a ''Prayer for the Sevenfold Gift of the Holy Spirit'', while Lutherans [[Seal of the Confessional (Lutheran Church)|seal the candidate]] with a ''[https://chapelofthecrosslutheran.org/pdfs/bu/bulletin.pdf?5ba67727' Prayer of the Church]'' and present a baptismal candle.<ref name=":2" /> Eastern Orthodox Christians, after baptism, immediately chrismate the newly baptized, praying that the newly illumined will “please you in every deed and word, and may be a child and heir of your heavenly kingdom,” affirming a twofold transformation: normative membership in the Church and acquisition of the “regenerate states” (purification, sanctification, illumination, regeneration).<ref name=":3" /> These rites signify the Holy Spirit’s indwelling and the community’s welcome.
