Baptism at axiom church

Why baptism?

In the book of Matthew in chapter 3 starting in verse 13 we see a story where Jesus, the savior of the world. God in the flesh goes to John the baptizer and tells him that he MUST be baptized. John knows Jesus is the son of God the Messiah and is so confused at the request. But Jesus makes it clear that he must be baptized to be obedient to God, His Father. 


In Matthew 28:19 Jesus in his final moments with his disciples after He has been crucified and risen from the grave he tells his disciples to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." 


Then we see from the very beginning as the disciples told the world about Jesus, they would share and then they would call people to baptism. It is a step of obedience, it is a response to what Christ has done. 


The Apostle Paul says that it symbolizes us being buried with Christ, that our old self is dead and coming up out of the water represents us being made new in Christ's resurrection. 


Baptism boils down to: 


  • An act of obedience, if Jesus the Son of God had to be baptized and established that as the example then we need to follow. 


  • A public declaration, by being baptized we are declaring we are one with Christ, that we accept his death as our payment and his resurrection as our salvation! 


  • A symbol, baptism is an outward expression of an inward change. The work has been done in our heart, now we show it with our actions. 


Baptism is a first step, and it does not have to be scary! At Axiom Church our desire is to walk with you, and see you take your next steps with Jesus. You have a story, and baptism is an important part of that story, and we would love to celebrate that with you!
