Baptism is a big step in one’s spiritual journey. While it is in no way a statement that one has arrived, it is a declaration of one’s full intent to follow Jesus Christ closely for the rest of one’s life. It can be likened to a marriage ceremony. Salvation is like when one falls in love. Baptism is like standing in front of an altar of witnesses and declaring that love openly.
ABOUT
The baptism journey at Trinity Church has been designed to be both simple and meaningful. From the registration form to the baptism service, each step has been carefully planned with you in mind.
THE BIG QUESTIONS
Who What
Who should be baptized?
• Everyone who has trusted Jesus Christ as their Saviour and desires to acknowledge their intent to follow Him.
• The only age or maturity restriction is that the individual understand what baptism means and what they are declaring by being baptized.
• Note: Baptism is not the act that saves (that has already happened) nor is it a statement of perfection (no need to wait until you have it all together).
What we believe about baptism
“When someone becomes a Christian they become a brand new person inside. The old life has passed away and new life has begun!” 2 Corinthians 5:17
Baptism also illustrates Christ’s death, burial and resurrection and our willingness to share in that.
“By our baptism then, we are buried with Him and shared His Death, in order that just as Christ was raised from the dead… so also we may live a new life!” Romans 6:4
Baptism does not make you a Christian. It is a simple declaration of the commitment you have made about your faith.
