Baptism is a symbol of the new life believers have in Christ. This is Levi Taylor’s public profession of faith in Jesus from his baptism on Sunday, September 10, 2023
I don’t really remember a time when I didn’t believe in Jesus. I always heard about Jesus growing up and always believed it was true. I know that God created the whole world, and that He made me. I know that He is real because I know the Bible is true. I know that Jesus saves me from my sin, so I can be with Him, and praise Him forever. I imagine Jesus being like a bridge from a sin life into a Heaven life. I know that I am standing on that bridge. I was thinking, about a month ago, that I was ready to be Baptized to tell everybody that I am a Christian. I have a new heart and I want to live like Jesus, walking with him and loving others well for all my life.
One of my favorite Bible verses is Philippians 2:14-15: “Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, ‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’ Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.”
