I was reading about Phillip and the Ethiopian. He was seeking God and Phillip helped him find Christ. The man said "what prevents me from being baptised now" Phillip said "nothing" and he was baptized right then.
I have talked with a few people in the last week who are holding back from being baptized.
reasons like:
fear
uncertainty of their relationship with God.
never really thought about it.
Let me encourage everyone right now about baptism.
- It is a celebration about the new life we have in Christ.
- It is an opportunity to demonstrate your commitment to Christ (doing what he says to do)
- It is a great encouragement to others to seek, find, and trust God.
If you have made a decision to follow Christ or if you have come back to Christ then celebrate with baptism. There is a blessing waiting for you and all of RL church when you do.
Let me know if you want to celebrate with me on November 25th.
