Baptism This Saturday

May 12, 2009

OK…I am OUT OF MY MIND excited about our tailgating baptism THIS COMING SATURDAY (the 16th) at our Anderson, Greenville and Florence locations.

Two things really quick about this…

#1 - If you have received Christ during “The Gospel” series…OR…you have received Christ BUT haven’t yet been baptized by immersion…you need to go here to get signed up!!!

There are SO many examples in the New Testament of people receiving Christ and THEN being baptized.  Baptism comes AFTER salvation…so…if you were baptized at some point in your life but didn’t actually know Christ all you were was a wet sinner!

Baptism is a powerful symbol of what Jesus did for us…and an awesome reminder of HIS burial and resurrection.

Trust me…there is NOTHING more important than you stepping up and taking this next step.

#2 - NewSpringers—-this is a CELEBRATION!

Seriously…no matter the location…I want all of us to go ALL OUT!  If we can do it for something like a football game…then we should DO IT BETTER when it comes to baptism!  The festivities will begin around 3:00…and the baptism will happen at 5:00.

I CAN’T WAIT…there is something POWERFUL about seeing hundreds of people say, “Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior” and then getting dunked!!!
