Baptism is your public declaration of your inward faith. Baptism itself isn’t an act that gets us into heaven – it is faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord that offers that assurance. Baptism is an acceptance of the gift of grace offered by Jesus Christ. Following His example, we are completely immersed in water to symbolically wash away the old to make room for the new!
Want to read more about baptism? Here are some examples in Scripture: Jesus commands us to be baptized (Matt. 28:18-20). Following His command, the Book of Acts describes the practice of administering baptism to almost every group or individual who believed in the preaching of the Gospel by the apostles (Acts 2:37-41; 8:5-13; 8:35-39; 9:10-18; 10:34-48; 16:13-15; 16:30-33; 18:8; and 19:1-6).
If you have accepted Christ as your personal Savior, let us help you make the next step!
