Baptism
Baptism and Lord's Supper
Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Savior, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus. It is a testimony to his faith in the final resurrection of the dead.
Lord's Supper
The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church, through partaking of the bread, symbolizing His body, and the fruit of the vine, symbolizing His blood, memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.
The Great Commandment
Matthew 22:37-39
"Jesus replied :'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’"
The Great
Commission
"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
