Taking the Plunge | Pastor Steve Forrester | Life Church Calvert 10:00 AM

At first glance, the idea of Christian Baptism might seem strange. Where does the idea of baptism come from? Why should someone be baptized? Isn’t it just an antiquated ritual? If I believe in Jesus, why isn’t that good enough? The idea of baptism might seem foreign. But in the New Testament, we see that being baptized is the proper response to faith in Christ. It is an act of obedience whereby one who has put their faith in Christ publicly identifies with the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. It is a time for us to acknowledge that we have put our faith in Jesus for the forgiveness of our sins, remembering that Jesus said, "whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven” (Matt. 10:32)Stay ConnectedWebsite: https://www.lifechurchcalvert.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/lifechurchcalvertInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifechurchcalvertTwitter: https://twitter.com/lifechurch1010YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/lifechurchcalvertCopyright License: 11020401Streaming Plus License: 20985319#lifechurchcalvert #lovegod #lovepeople #makedisciplesofjesuschrist #baptism
