Water Baptism
After you decide to follow Jesus by placing your faith in Him, turning from the wrong you have done and accepting the payment that Christ made on the cross for you, baptism is the next step.
We practice believer’s baptism by immersion. It is one of the first outward acts that a follower of Jesus takes to share his personal faith in Jesus Christ. After being baptized, the person becomes a member of the church and engages more in church life and ministry.
Baptism is:
- An act of obedience: Jesus commands it (Matt 28:19).
- An act of following Jesus’ example (Matt 3:13-17).
- A Symbol of the death and resurrection of Jesus (Romans 6:1-4)
- An act of following Jesus through death and resurrection (Romans 6:1-4)
