What Next Steps Should I take?
Next Steps in Your Faith Journey…
Accepting Jesus as your Lord and Savior-
Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Baptism-
All those who are willing to repent of their sins and confess their belief in Jesus Christ should be baptized (Matthew 28:19; Acts 2:38-39).
Why should we be baptized? A person should be baptized to follow the example of Christ (Matthew 3:13-17), to obey Christ’s command (Matthew 28:19), to accept God’s grace and forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38; 22:16), to receive the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38), to express trust in Christ (Acts 8:12-13), and to testify to God’s work in his or her life (Romans 6:1-8; Galatians 3:27). Baptism also serves to cleanse a guilty conscience (I Peter 3:21). The Holy Spirit prompts individuals to recognize their sin and guilt. The only way the human soul can be wiped clean of sin is through the blood of Jesus Christ (Hebrews 9:27-10:7). This “washing away” of sin is clearly symbolized in the act of baptism (Acts 22:16; I Peter 3:21).
