One of the many pleasures a pastor has is baptizing young
people he has watched grow up in the church.
|
Tim Jackson is baptized this evening, the first Sunday
in December, 2000
|
Coming up more than just a wet Christian, baptism is
a puplic testimony of ones desire to have Christ as Lord..
|
Tim's sister, Michelle, is also baptized this evening.
|
As Christ died, so we symbolize our dying to self.
|
Coming out of the water symbolizes the resurection of
Jesus, and our resurection to newness of life in Christ.
|
Teens are not the only ones who are baptized. Bev Bonnar
desired to follow the biblical Baptist tradition of baptism by immersion.
|
Baptizing in the name of the Father, and the Son, and
the Holy Spirit.
|
It was a great evening.
