Baptism by immersion is the next step you take after committing your life to Christ. At Mosaic it's called "Taking the Plunge!" and it's a celebratory event filled with family, friends, food and your story of how God has changed your life, forever.
The Scriptures teach us a few key truths about baptism:
- Jesus was baptized by immersion
- After Jesus came up from the water, the Father in heaven was heard as saying "I am pleased" (God is pleased when we obey Him)
- Once someone had made a conscious decision to trust Jesus with their lives, they were baptized by immersion rather quickly
- Baptism is an outward symbol of an inward change. It doesn't save us, but it let's the world know that our life is now 'in Christ'
- Baptism was meant to be done only once, after a commitment to follow Jesus
