Baptism may be important I also have done it but don't be deceived the Bible says belief on Jesus is all you need for salvation..remember the their on the cross wasn't baptized and he went to paradise praise God
I was Saved the Sunday night, before Thanksgiving and Baptised 2 days(nights) later❤️✝️ November 1990. My Dad was smiling SO BIG, from the Congregation, watching his youngest daughter (of 3 girls) get Saved n Baptised ❤️.He passed away, suddenly, 2 years later, while Golfing, at the age of 57. I was 22. I'm so thankful he got to see that❤️🕊️✝️
What a blessing. A decision that you will NEVER regret. I got baptized as a little girl and didn't fully understand what it meant although I KNEW IT WAS SOMETHING SO TOTALLY AWESOME! ❤. It was MY decision alone, then. Fast forward to this past December I decided I NOW FULLY UNDERSTAND the meaning and DESIRED to do it as an adult. It was, is, and WILL ALWAYS BE a decision I made that I know ALL TO WELL I WILL NEVER REGRET! 🎉❤😊 Thank you for sharing your story and testimony.
I'm heading out to a remote community in Australia 🇦🇺 to do baptisms 🙏✝️🕊 super excited for what the Holy Spirit is going to do! & is already doing there🔥🥰
I was Baptized by the Holy Ghost in 2021, not sure exactly when because it was by the will of God, but i knew by belly flew rivers of living water 😊. I'm not interested in any other baptism after i heard the Gospel. ❤
THE BIBLE SAYS BAPTISM SAVES US Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 1 Peter 3:21 The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
Me and my daughters are getting baptised today! Our pastor is a romantic....it will be in the sea @ sunset🌅 The Holy Spirit worked in my heart to get Baptised for a while now, but I wanted to wait for my husband. We all have to make our own decisions and I have peace to wait on the Lord for him..... Not my time, but God's. 🙌
I've been born again a long time ago and till the time I saw this video I've been struggling about baptism because I've been told about my infant baptism. I've always confused like how we baptize first and then repent later, its not like in the Bible. I'm a Presbyterian and we care not to talk about baptism. But Now I Understand! Praise God
Fantastic. I had no idea how important it is to get baptized. But in my church they make you wait a long time, almost like you have to "earn the right" after being a parishioner for several months. I may just go to a lake and baptize myself in the meantime. Better than nothing
A person who knows Jesus and accepts Jesus in their hearts will go to heaven you must remember the robber on the cross with Jesus never went to church never was baptized and yet Jesus said to that robber today you will be in paradise with me because that robber accepted jesus
This doctrine that you are not saved unless you are baptized is not scriptural. I believe that this teaching is incorrect. His first verse that he read at the beginning of this video actually contradicts what he is teaching.
Thank you for this message Pastor. I am getting baptised on 28th September 2024 and cannot wait, am 59 and am so looking forward to being a new person in Christ. Thank you Lord for your countless blessings ❤❤
Sir, if a child is not baptised and died , is she or be saved? We are baptizing a person those who are aged of 18 yrs, because he can repent and knows his sin.
Hello! If you have questions about theology, we encourage you to call the church at (417) 581-5433 to talk with a pastor. We would love to connect with you and help answer your questions!
James River. So if you're not saved, you don't obey Christ to be saved? "And he became the author of salvation to all that obey him." Jesus did not have a problem with grammar, and He meant what he said in Mk.16. "He that believes (the gospel) ""and"" is baptized will be saved...". Faith + obedience = Salvation. "But he that believes not, will be condemned." Takes two acts to be saved, one to condemn. A person who refuses to believe the gospel has condemned himself, therefore does not meet the qualifications to be immersed into Christ, which is when Jesus forgives the sinner. Take a look at Rom.6:17-18. "But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have ""obeyed"" from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being ""then"" made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness." James River, according to the passages above, when does a person become free from sin, before or after obedience to the doctrine Paul explains in the beginning of the chapter??? James, it clearly is after one submits to being baptized. Faith and obedience is always conjoined in scripture (Jn.3:36 NASB). After Peter explained to the crowd on Pentecost what they needed to do to be saved (vs 36-38), notice they were not saved at the point of faith and repentance as you presume. For, Peter "continued with many other words testifying and exhorting saying ""save yourselves"" from this wicked generation" (vs.40). James River, if they were saved at the point of faith, which is your position, Peter would have never clarified they still needed saving. So what did they do to save themselves? Answer: "then they that gladly received his words were baptized: and on that same day were added unto them about three thousand souls" (vs.41). To save themselves they were baptized. Then/afterwards Jesus added the 3000 to them, those who Jesus first put into the church that same morning. Jesus does not add anyone to his church/kingdom until they are baptized for the forgiveness of their sins. Do you remember the conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus? Nicodemus and his fellow pharisee companions "rejected the counsel of God not being baptized of John." Let that sink in a moment. Jesus knew this when Nicodemus approached him that night. Nicodemus had no intentions of being baptized of John. So Jesus made it clear to him, if he wasn't born again, Jesus was not going to give him access to the kingdom of God. Nicodemus had a hard time understanding what Jesus meant by being born again. He knew full well a baby cannot go back into his mothers womb, much less an OLD man such as he, so it was obvious Jesus had something else in mind. Not the amniotic fluid which breaks at childbirth which Calvin invented. The question raised by Nicodemus was "how can an OLD man be born again?" Jesus answered and explained "unless a man (not a baby) is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of God" (Jn.3:5). Nicodemus understood water to be a reference to Baptism, what he had difficulty with was regarding how the Holy Spirit plays a role in our conversion. Keeping in context, "that which is born of the flesh" is the Baptismal ceremony, which is the physical part of how one is born Again, it is visibly seen. Where "that which is born of the Spirit is spirit" is invisible, as the reception of the gift of the Holy Spirit, the forgiveness of sins, the answer of a good conscience toward God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ by which "baptism does also now save us" (1Pt.3:21). Read 1Pt.1:22-23 for an explanation of how the Spirit plays a role in our conversion.

Thank you Pastor.. for your wonderful sermon. It was so moving to me. I am getting baptized tomorrow. Praise the Lord.
God bless you.
You are obeying GOD'S COMMANDMENT.
Baptism is by immersion not sprinkling and when a person reaches the age of accountability how can a infant be accountable.
Me and my daughters are getting baptised today! Our pastor is a romantic....it will be in the sea @ sunset🌅 The Holy Spirit worked in my heart to get Baptised for a while now, but I wanted to wait for my husband. We all have to make our own decisions and I have peace to wait on the Lord for him..... Not my time, but God's. 🙌

I just got water baptized in August 21th 2022.
Such profound expository preaching with this AOG church! What a blessing! Glory to God!
Immersion is the timing of accepting God's promise, the washing away of sin from the soul and the gift of the Holy Spirit.
We have to take babtism in the name of Lord Jesus Christ
My friend was talking about this today.
I had so much fear about it but this summer I’m getting BAPTIZED!!
There's no fear in love but perfect love casts out all fears.
Go look up the meaning of "Mikveh" in the hebrew. This is actually where "baptidzo" comes from.
Beautiful message I learned so much may God continue to bless u and use you for he’s glory
We are so glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much! I am getting baptized on Sunday
Wow praise the Lord!

Lol
Can a person be saved before water baptism then let's say live another 30 years, never getting water baptized, die, and still go to heaven?
A person who knows Jesus and accepts Jesus in their hearts will go to heaven you must remember the robber on the cross with Jesus never went to church never was baptized and yet Jesus said to that robber today you will be in paradise with me because that robber accepted jesus
That was the most clearest and awesomest teaching about baptism 🥰 thank you Pastor. Godbless you!
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing sermon, so insightful! Thanks so much for sharing, God Bless
