Baptism
Making a Commitment to Christ

The following scriptures speak of baptism:

Col 2 vs 12 buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead.

Matthew 28 vs 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Ephesians 4 vs 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

Acts 2 vs 38 Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every one of you be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

The Apostles Creed is often called The Baptismal Creed.

When someone became a Christian in the fourth century great significance was attached to his or her baptism. During the period of Lent, those who had recently come to faith were given instruction in Christian beliefs, finally, when they had mastered the basics of faith, they believed faith had been reinforced with understanding. Baptism was a public demonstration of a believers death to the world and birth to a New Life in Jesus Christ.
“Each candidate had to confess their belief in the Father, Son, Holy Spirit and their belief in the Gospel” – Alister McGrath ‘I Believe’ Exploring the Apostles Creed.

Therefore it is the practice of this church to baptise those who have attained an age where they can make a personal confession of Christ and understand the consequences of a life discipled in the teachings of Christ.
