What is baptism, why it is so important? How it can affect one? here is some information from Bible... Baptism is not just God's idea but command. [Mt 28.19-20] Water testifies [1 John 5.7-8] Jesus Himself stood as a model for us. [Mark 1.9-13] There is only one baptism [Ephesians. 4.5-6] Jesus says immersion baptism is must for entering into heaven. [John 3.5] It helps us begin a new relationship with God [Mt. 3.6] It is for the remission of our sins [Acts.2.38] It is godly righteousness to be followed [Mt.3.15] It is for our salvation [Titus 3.5] It gives us a new identity in Christ [Gal.3.27] It cleanses our spirit of its sins [1 Peter 3.21] It only gives us resurrection guarantee, once we are dead [Col.2.12] It helps us to escape the wrath of God [Luke 3.7] So never delay your knowing, accepting Jesus; getting baptism and being ready to meet God [Acts 8.36-39 and 22.16] Be wise. Be safe. Life is just once, don't lose your eternal life in Jesus Christ. What if Bible says is true and we are wrong; will you get one more opportunity to live again and be baptized, if dead without it. Consider....
