Water Baptism

They have kept themselves as pure as virgins, following the Lamb wherever he goes. ( Revelation 14:4, NLT )

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! ( John 1: 29, NLT )

One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. ( Luke 3:21 )

Jesus the 'Lamb of God' went into the muddy waters of Jordan and was baptized by John the baptist, who was not worthy to untie the straps of the sandals of Jesus ( John 1:16 ), in the Jordan river. One of the qualifications of the 'Bride of Christ' is that they follow the Lamb where ever He goes. Have you followed him and got baptized in water? It does not matter whether you speak in tongues or prophesy or heal the sick. It does not matter even if you got sprinkled by a priest or pastor a little while after your birth. Baptism follows belief in Christ for the scripture says.

He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. ( Mark 16:16 )

What the Lord is saying is that if you believe you should get baptized but if you do not believe you need not get baptized. Those who do not believe shall be damned!

If you are a Pastor are you obeying the command of the Lord?

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost! ( Mathew 28:19 )

Prayer : Dear Lord, please give me the grace to follow You where ever You go.
