Baptism at Home

What is Baptism?

Baptism is a very important part of your faith journey. You may have experienced a service at Christ Fellowship where we celebrated baptisms as a church family and wondered why we are cheering on and celebrating everyone who made that decision to get baptized. But before we dive into why baptism matters, we must understand what it is.

The Greatest Baptism Story Ever
At the beginning of Acts, the disciples were praying and waiting when they were filled by the Holy Spirit and empowered to go out and share the Gospel. They boldly went into the street and Peter preached the greatest message of his life. Over 3,000 were saved and asked, “What shall we do?” And Peter replied, “repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ.”

What Is Baptism?
Baptism is like a wedding ring: It’s the outward representation of the commitment you made in your heart to God. Baptism shows that you already believe, but doesn’t make you a believer. Baptism does not “save” you. Only Christ saves you by grace through faith in Him.

Should I Get Baptized?
If you have accepted Jesus as your savior, then baptism is your next step. Looking back at the story found in Acts, the only prerequisite to baptism was a declaration of faith in Jesus.
