THE STAR CHURCH

WATER BAPTISM

WHAT IS BAPTISM?

When Christians are baptized, they fulfill the command of Jesus (Matthew 28:19-20), are submerged in water to identify with the death of Jesus, and rise out of the water to identify with His resurrection.

​

Romans 6:1-10; Colossians 2:12; 2 Corinthians 5:17

This identification with the death burial and resurrection through baptism testifies to the fact that we believe, by faith, that Jesus dies for our sins, was buried, rose three days later, and now is alive and Lord over all of creation.

We will periodically schedule baptisms throughout the year. If you would like to be added to our next baptism, please fill out the form below:​

Who Should Be Baptized?

If you’ve made a commitment to Jesus, we encourage you to follow Jesus’ command to be baptized as a public profession of your faith in Him. If you haven’t made a commitment to Jesus, we encourage you to learn more about Salvation HERE. Then after confessing your faith, we invite you to be baptized to make a public confession of your faith. It’s a declaration that the old has gone and the new is here (2 Corinthians 5:17).

​

What Should I Wear?

What to expect?

You’ll see each person about to be baptized talking with one of the church leaders in the pool. They’re answering basic questions such as:

  • “Do you believe that Jesus is the Son of God?”

  • “Do you believe that your sin has separated you from God?”

  • “Have you repented of that sin?”

  • “Do you believe that Jesus died and rose, conquering Satan, sin and death?”
