Water Baptism

WATER BAPTISM 

As Christians we believe in baptism in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost - Matthew 28: 19. 

The teaching is revealed in the New Testament and all Christians must obey this rule of the Lord - Acts 2: 4; 16: 15; 30-33; Acts 18:8; 19:4-5.

Every saved soul automatically qualifies for water baptism - Acts 8:29-39; 16:28

We believe that all Christians should receive water baptism by immersion in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost as believers who will not add or take out of the word of God – Matthew 28:19; 3:16.  

Water baptism stands for a sign and example of two things: 

1. It is an outstanding sign and an example of true repentance of a sinner from his/her sins - Acts 2:38; 22:16.  

2. Anybody who is baptised is joined with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection - Romans 6:1 -end; Col. 2:13. Therefore, anybody who is baptised is dead to the world and the evils thereof -  Galatians 6: 14.
