1 | Why would someone get rebaptised? | Bible general Archive 1 | Emmaus | 41819 | ||
comptong It depends on how a church views baptism. If it views baptism as a sacrament by which Christ gives sanctifying grace then rebaptism is not necessary if the baptism is valid,(trinitarian and with water). The Catholic Church holds this view and therefore does not rebaptize christians who convert to the Catholic Church if they have already been baptized by water and in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Other churches may not see baptism as a sacrament that transmits grace, but only as a symbol of public confession of Christ and an entry into their particular denomination or congregation and so they rebaptize.

Greetings Emmaus! I was baptized twice for a different reason. My father-in-law was a baptist pastor. He had a woman who wanted to get baptized, but she was uncomfortable being the "only" one. So, my father-in-law asked me if I would be willing to get baptized with her. :-) I don't know if I'll get any extra credit or anything, but I felt like it was a loving thing to do! ;-) Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
