Water Baptism

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Aug 18, 2024

“Water Becomes Wine!” What of it? Does Jesus’ miracle of changing water into wine matter when you stack it up against other miracles of Jesus?

Name three miracles of Jesus that were the most powerful and beneficial of all the miracles he performed. (Ask for a few responses from the council members.) His resurrection. The raising of Lazarus.

Benefits Of Water Baptism

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Jan 23, 2003

This is an examination of the various spiritual blessings that the New Testament associates with water baptism. In addition, we consider how the early Church viewed this rite.

In the ’Great Commission’, Jesus instructed His apostles to make disciples of all the nations "baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." Why did our Lord emphasize the need for baptism? What ’benefits’ does the person receive when they are baptized? We wish to ...read more

Water is the blood of the world that gives life to all that God has created. The blood in our veins that keeps us alive is 90% water. Water supply is not just vital for farmers, it is vital to the life of each one of us.

There is no known life on earth that can survive without water. God gave birth to the world out of a mass of water as the Holy Spirit ...read more

Jesus Is The Answer, But What Was The Question?

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jan 19, 2025

Jesus travels to the Jordan River to inaugurate His ministry by being Baptized in the Jordan River. This is not what John the Baptist expects, as John's Baptism is a baptism of Repentance. Why was Jesus Baptized?
