Baptism 2024 - Matthew 28:16-20
In baptism, we are baptized into God's Kingdom. We declare his authority over the world, and swear allegiance to God in front of him and his people, and the angels... and the demons. We declare war on the principalities and powers that come against God.
As a Christian, if you have the opportunity to get baptized, you must. It's the consummation of Jesus' prayer in John 17:20-22... we all become one with him!
Baptism means obedience: will you submit and do what he's asking?
He's with us ALWAYS, to the end of the age! He is faithful! Our shepherd watches out for us, protects us, now and always! Isaiah 9:6: he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace!!!
If we wander, chaos develops to the same degree to which we depart from Christ. Though the world is lost, we have him! If God is with us, who can be against us?
To follow Christ is the best decision one can ever make! God will give us peace that can never be taken from us. And he will not leave us or forsake us!
