Baptism is so amazing! The picture of someone who is becoming a new creation by the supernatural power of Christ. The reminder of someone who once was lost, realized it and wants to acknowledge to the world that He/She is a now follower of JESUS. I was telling a friend just this morning that I never would have thought my life would turn out as it has... I never would've pictured me living my life for God.
I love seeing people take the plunge!
This Sunday, February 1st, is our next baptism celebration - have you been baptized SINCE you believed. Remember, scriptural baptism is that which takes place after conversion (Acts 2:40-42
, Acts 8:12,13, Acts 8:35-37, and more - if you're interested in more let me know). If you want/need to be baptized you can register here. We'll be in contact with you this week to make the necessary arrangements.
One more thing: when you get baptized make a big deal out of it - invite your friends, your family, anybody you can think of! What better way to share with them what is happening spiritually in your life than to invite them to witness the picture of your old life being buried with Christ in the waters of baptism, resurrected out of the water as a new creation? I'm very excited for all of you!
Check out the following video - you never know who God will use you to reach; maybe the toughest person, the one you can't imagine living for God is "the one" whom God will use you to reach. (facebook and those using a "reader" go to the original site to see the video: http://www.wholeheartedlife.typepad.com)
And join me tomorrow as I humbly attempt to answer one of life's toughest questions...
