And that water is a picture of baptism, which now saves you, not by removing dirt from your body, but as a response to God from a clean conscience. It is effective because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1Peter 3:21
I believe your faith grows at different rates, at different points of your life. There's something to be said about the saying, "Faith like a Child." Yet, when you reach the point as an adult where you really grasp the concept of God's infinite grace and the challenge to LOVE people as the gospel tells us over and over again, it's time to celebrate! And what better way to celebrate then an outward profession of your faith?
The very definition of Baptism!!
Bobby and I were both baptized when we were younger. But we have seen some major spiritual growth in both of us in the past year. We decided that now that we have a clear understanding of the example Jesus led, we needed to follow suit.
