BAPTISM

Following Jesus in believer’s baptism allows us to publicly show the whole world what Jesus has done in our lives.

1. To follow the example set by Christ.

(Mark 1:9)

2. Because Christ commands it.

(Matthew 28:19-20)

3. To demonstrate that we are believers.

(Acts 18:8; 1 John 2:3)

1. It illustrates Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection.

(1 Corinthians 15:3-4; Colossians 2:12)

2. It illustrates our new life as Christians.

(2 Corinthians 5:17; Romans 6:4)

  It's important to note that baptism doesn't save you, only your faith in Christ does that (Ephesians 2:8-9).  Baptism is just an outward expression of your faith in Jesus Christ.

1. Jesus was baptized that way.

(Matthew 3:16)

2. Every baptism in the Bible was by immersion.

(Acts 8:38-39)

3. The word “baptize” comes from the Greek word “baptizo”, which means “to immerse or dip under water”.

You should be baptized when you have believed.

(Acts 2:41; Acts 8:35-38)
