(Acts 2:41) If a Christian understands this, he will be baptized and then become an active member in the local church. (Eph. 4:11,12) Prayerfully consider which church where God would have you to become an active member. (Heb. 10:24,25)

(John 4:1, Acts 8:36,37; 18:8) To be Biblically baptized, you must first have received Christ as Savior. Secondly, you must have been properly baptized. Baptism according to the Bible requires that it be performed by total immersion in water. (Matt 3:6; 3:16, John 3:16, Act 8:38,39, Col. 2:12) This is a symbol of death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, not a means of grace. Third, baptism must be administered by the proper authority. (John 3:26,27) According to scriptures, the proper authority resides in the local New Testament Church. The need for re-baptism only comes if you were baptized before accepting Christ as Savior, you were baptized in an unscriptural way, or you were not baptized by the proper authority. An examination of the Bible is important to understand this doctrine.

Christ offering on the cross was the final payment for sin and nothing else is needed. (Hebrews 10:10-14) By accepting this payment we have eternal salvation. We can know we have this salvation as we live this life. (I John 5:11-13) Jesus taught in John 10:27-30 that his sheep, or believers, can never perish or be taken out of His hand and God’s Hand. Once we have accepted Christ as Savior, nothing can cause us to loose that salvation.

Secondly, repent from these sins and turn back to God. (Acts 3:19) Thirdly, ask God in faith to forgive you of your sins and to come into your heart and save you, believing that Jesus Christ came and died for your sins and then rose again having power over sin and death. (Rom 10:9,10) God is always ready to receive you into his family. (II Peter 3:9, John 1:12)
