Baptism

Baptism is not…

1. A public profession of faith.  (Nowhere in the Bible is baptism described as a public profession of faith.)

2. A milestone to be “attained” or “accomplished” along your spiritual journey.

3. A means by which you are “saved.”

4.  A grand finale of one’s salvation.

Baptism is…

1. A step of OBEDIENCE after salvation. Other than salvation, there are no “pre-requsites” for baptism.

2. SYMBOLIC of your complete surrender to the purposes of God in your life.

3. Represents the BEGINNING of a new life, cleansed, and set free from the power of sin.
