👥 🌎 Video: What is Water Baptism?​​
​
🌿 🌎 That video hits all of the key points about baptism, but just to recap:​
-
Jesus commanded that we baptize believers (Matthew 28:18-20), but it is not a requirement for salvation: John 3:16, Ephesians 2:8-9 .
-
Likewise, there are several examples in the Bible of people being baptized immediately after they believed (Acts 8:34-39, Acts 10:44-48), but also an example of someone being saved without baptism when it wasn't practical to do so: Luke 23:39-43 .
-
Baptism is an important part of your testimony to God and people that you have died to your old way of life, and dedicated yourself to live a new life following Jesus: Colossians 2:11-13, Romans 6:3-11 .
