Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.

Since the days of John the Baptist, Baptism has been part of the Christian faith.

In Acts 8, we are given one of the clearest examples of believer’s baptism in the New Testament. In this chapter we see the Ethiopian Eunuch, who believed on Jesus and was immediately baptized.

The Bible teaches that baptism is for anyone who has personally accepted Christ as Saviour. Every believer should submit themselves for baptism because it shows on the outside what Jesus did on the inside.

There are three important reasons to be baptized:

1. Christ commands it (Matthew 28:19).

2. Christ was our example (Matthew 3:13).

3. Believers in the Bible practiced it (Acts 2:41).

What a joy that we can follow the Biblical example of Christ and others through baptism.
