Be Baptized Immediately

Today we will study how significant baptism is for us, sinners. Baptism is the first step toward the kingdom of heaven. In order for us to go to heaven, we must be freed from sin as quickly as possible. God promises us the forgiveness of our sins through baptism. We must not wait to be baptized for any reason. It is wrong to teach people to be baptized after six months or one year of studying the Bible.

The Bible says that we are not supposed to postpone baptism. Let's find out why we must receive baptism at once.
Pr 27:1 Do not boast about tomorrow for you do not know what a day may bring forth.
Nobody knows what will happen in his future. What if we die in the middle of studying the Bible without the forgiveness of our sins through baptism? This is why we must be baptized without any hesitation. Let's confirm this through Jesus' teachings in the Bible.
Lk 12:16-21 This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?
This is a good example of why we must be baptized the moment we believe in God. We must be baptized at once because we don't know what's happening to us in the future.
Now why don't we find good examples of baptism through the Bible?
Ac 8:30-39 Look, here is water. Why shouldn't I be baptized?
An Ethiopian eunuch got baptized at the very moment he received Jesus as his Savior through the Bible.
Ac 10:48 So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ.
Cornelius and his family wanted to be baptized and were baptized right away.
Ac 16:29-34 At that hour of the night. … immediately he and all his family were baptized
The jailer and all his family were baptized immediately, very late that night, when they realized Jesus was the Christ.
Ac 16:13-15 The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul's message. … she and the members of her household were baptized.
Lydia and her family were baptized at once when they received Jesus.
People must be baptized again if they had been baptized in a false church.
Ac 19:3-7 John's baptism was a baptism of repentance. … On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
Those who had been baptized by John the baptist were baptized again. It was because Jesus is the Savior, not John. In the same way we must be baptized in the true church which obeys God's truth.
God blesses us with the forgiveness of sins through baptism.
Ac 2:38 Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the Forgiveness of yours sins.
Mk 16:15 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved.

Baptism is the primary ceremony to wash our sins away. It is the ceremony of promise that we will be God's people and live according to His will, being released from the power of Satan. Receive baptism in the Church of God and have the forgiveness of your sins. God bless you.
