Baptism

A public step of obedience and celebration of new life in Christ

What is Baptism ?

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward transformation. When someone chooses to follow Jesus, baptism is the way we proclaim that faith publicly. It symbolizes being united with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:4)

Why Do We Baptize?

  • A step of obedience -- Jesus commanded His followers to be baptized (Matthew 28:19).
  • A proclamation of faith -- Baptism declares to others that you belong to Christ.
  • A picture of the gospel -- As you go under the water, it represents dying to sin; as you rise up, it represents new life in Jesus.

What We Believe

  • Not what saves you -- Salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone (Ephesians 2:8–9).
  • A symbol, not the source -- Baptism doesn’t wash away sin, but it shows that Christ already has.
  • For believers -- We baptize those who have made a personal decision to follow Jesus.
