Every follower of Jesus is commanded to be baptized. This is not simply a good idea or a great suggestion. It is a command of Jesus. It is a symbolic act of our desire to follow Jesus by identifying with Jesus in His death, burial and resurrection through water baptism.
The Apostle Paul wrote concerning baptism…“Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” (Romans 6:3-4) Baptism is our identification with Jesus and the outward symbol of our inward commitment.
If you are a follower of Jesus and have asked Jesus to forgive you of our sins, then your responsibility is to obey Jesus by being baptized.
The next Lebanon location baptism is scheduled for Sunday, May 20th during the 10am experience.
