Baptism is an important event in the believer's walk with Jesus Christ. The Bible talks about water immersion baptism in which a believer makes a public confession of their faith. Jesus lead the way in example of water baptism! Romans 6 says "We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.
For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin— because anyone who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him".
Our church member, Meenus got baptized through the act of obedience in baptism, symbolizing the her faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior. We believe that a believer's death to sin, the buried of the old life, and is resurrected to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus when baptized.
