Is Your Baptism Biblical?

204 ( 47 | 157 )

Christian baptism in the New Testament is done after people hear the Gospel and not before.

Gospel understanding first and then you are baptized in response.

Christening is not a biblical baptism.

Biblical baptism is done after someone understands the Gospel.

When you trust Christ for your salvation then you should obey God’s command to be immersed.

Baptizing… NT:907 (bap-tid'-zo) to immerse, submerge; to make overwhelmed (i.e. fully wet); (Biblesoft's New Exhaustive Strong's Numbers)

If you look at the first Gospel sermon preached in the new Testament, the response of the people was to believe and then to be baptized.

Did you know that there is not one example of an individual child or infant being baptized in the Bible?

Jesus Himself was baptized as an adult.
A person needs to understand the Gospel before they can be baptized.

The conditions for Baptism:

  1. Belief in the saving work of the Son of God.

  2. Secondly in biblical baptism you need enough water to immerse.

  3. Thirdly when a person is baptized they are immersed under the water.

Baptism is never a requirement of salvation.

Baptism is an act of obedience to Christ’s command for His followers.
