Baptism
We believe that baptism is the public confession of Christ as Savior and Lord. It is a symbol of one’s union, by faith, with Christ in death, burial, and resurrection, and therefore is to be administered by immersion to only those who have given evidence of faith in Christ as their personal Savior (Matt. 28:19
; Mark 16:16
; Acts 2:38-41, 8
:36-39; Rom. 6:3-5
; Col. 2:12
). We believe that baptism is the official entrance into local church membership.
