Water Baptism (September 24)

Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, “See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?” Then Philip said, “If you believe with all your heart, you may.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down to the water and he baptized him (Acts 8:36-38).

• Have you ever asked, “What is the requirement for me to be water baptized?” If you have, you’re not alone. This man asked the very same question. The only requirement the Bible gives for you to be water baptized is that you “believe with all your heart.” If you’ve made Jesus the Lord of your life, and want to express it to everyone at 19north through water baptism, water baptism is your first step. We’ll let you know when we schedule our next baptism right here!
