Baptism
Why Should I Be Baptized
Baptism is a way of showing others that you have entered into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Because Jesus instructed us to be baptized, baptism is also an act of obedience that demonstrates submission to God. We immerse at Fresh Start, following the biblical example of Jesus. Baptism is a symbol of the end of your old life and the beginning of your new life in Christ.
Before Jesus Christ public ministry He set the example of obedience to God by being baptized (Matthew 3:13-17). He later commissioned His disciples to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching how to be obedient to God the Father (Matthew 28:18-20). Choosing baptism is the full response to receiving God's forgiveness (Acts 2:38-41).
Prior to being baptized, we ask that you attend a Water Baptism Class which will give you a biblical understanding of water baptism and provide practical instruction regarding what will happen during the Water Baptism Service.
