...Brothers, what shall we do? Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit"

Acts 2:36-38  (NIV)

Baptism is full of significance! Paul teaches us that a Christian is supposed to go through a similar experience to what Jesus went through in His death, burial, and resurrection. The difference is that Jesus died physically and actually came back to life; we are to die to our sin, self, and old ways, and then rise again to live a holy life through the power of Jesus.

In other words, baptism is an outward symbol of an inner change and transformation that took place beforehand. It's not that we have to completely overcome sin before we can be baptized, but we need to repent of our past sins (Acts 2:28) and have our mind made up that we want to overcome sin, as we will allow God to give us the victory.

At Mount Aery, a new disciple that have never been baptised is ready for baptism after completing the New Disciple Classes and the Baptism Class before receiving the Right Hand Of Fellowship.

To register for your baptism class, please call 203.334.2757
