Bible Question: is baptism important |
Bible Answer: Personal Note .................................. Dear Fele, Welcome to the forum. The basic answer is that Baptism is important because God tells us to do it in the Bible. If you have the opportunity, then you should be baptised. It is a way to publicly acknowledge that you are choosing to be a Christian and love God.

To other forum members posting to this thread, This topic has been thoroughly covered in other threads, and as I have read all of the responses so far, there has been nothing new added in this one. I think it would be healthier to just recommend a search than to create division by rehashing old arguments. |
