Baptism

Baptismal Classes
Edmonton Baptist Church offers baptismal classes 2-3 times a year. There is no obligation to be baptised; you are welcome to attend the classes just to find out more.
Baptism does not make you a believer, it shows that you already are one!
Baptism does not "save" you, only your faith in Christ does that.
So why be baptised?
-
Because you want to follow Christ's example.
-
Because Jesus commanded it.
-
Because it shows you are a believer.
-
Because obeying Christ's command shows you know Him.
Jesus said:
"Go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you." Matthew chapter 28, verses 19 to 20
What is the meaning of baptism?
-
It is a symbol of Christ's burial and resurrection.
-
It is a symbol of your new life as a Christian.
