Baptism is one of the most powerful moments in a Christian’s life. Not because of what we do, but because of what God does for us in this moment.

Yes, we confess Jesus as Lord and Savior, yet what we received from God, our identity with Christ is life-changing.

When we are baptized into “the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit”, we are given a new life in Christ, our sins are washed away, we die a death to our old self and are raised in Christ to new life. We are given the promised Holy Spirit as a guarantee of our eternal inheritance and life with Jesus in heaven. And what do we do? Simply trust that God’s word is true, His promises are true for us, and receive these wonderful gifts.

How can water do such things, you ask? It is not the water itself, but the Word of God attached to water that provides the action to accomplish these things. We cannot see it, beut God promises to do these things for us. So we trust that His word is true and faithful to accomplish what He desires for us.

If you would like to be baptised, please reach out to Pastor Sheek and he will contact you.

“Baptism … now saves you”, Peter writes in 1 Peter 3:21. We can trust God’s word in this.
