Very often, some of those who really do believe in Jesus neglect to avow their faith in the Lord’s appointed way. Nothing is more plainly taught in the New Testament than that it is the duty of every believer in Christ to be baptized. It is the duty of every Christian, having first given himself to Christ, afterwards to give himself to Christ’s Church, according to the will of God. Now, my dear friend, do your Master’s will, and consult not with flesh and blood.
-Charles Haddon Spurgeon
All believers are called to profess their faith in Christ and commitment to Christ's Church through the waters of baptism. While baptism is not necessary for salvation, baptism is an ordinance which was commanded by the Lord Jesus Himself (Matthew 28:18-20). We thank God for your desire to be obedient to the Lord in pursuing baptism. The sections listed under "Baptism" on the left menu bar of this page outline what you need to know to be baptized.
