Baptism does not bring salvation.  

So then, why do believers in Jesus Christ as the Son of God get baptized? 

The concept of baptism seems so simple, get dunked under water by a church pastor and recognize Jesus as your Lord and Savior. But there are so many differing beliefs about ‘why’ we should or should not be baptized and when that should occur. 

Why do babies get baptized in many denominations of the Christian faith? And what are the three big reasons why adults should get baptized? 

On today’s SBD episode, our guest Jared Haley, pastor and video production specialist for Critical Bench, answers all of these common questions regarding baptism in the church. 

 

"Baptism is not for salvation... My decision to follow Jesus and my salvation, 

I have to be old enough to make that decision in my own heart and for my own life. Nobody can make that decision for me." - Jared Haley
