Baptism at First Baptist Church

Jesus instructed His followers to remember His death and resurrection. He gave the church two visible symbols, called “ordinances,” as reminders. These two ordinances are baptism and the Lord’s Supper. Baptism by immersion is a one-time act of obedient identification with Jesus as Lord. It serves as an outward sign of conscious confession of repentance and faith.


Our baptism is by immersion after salvation because it is a matter of: • Submission – Our Lord commanded all who become His disciples to be baptized (Matthew 28:19-20). • Identification – Our Lord was baptized as an example for us to identify (Mark 1:10). • Definition – The word “baptize” comes from the Greek word, “baptiso” meaning “to make fully wet, to dip or immerse.”
