Going Public

South Union Sermons

Bottom line: Believer's baptism is the means by which we go public with our faith in and saving relationship with Jesus.

Believer's baptism is a public declaration of our association with Jesus. When new believers are baptized,. they declare that they are with Jesus and Jesus is with them. They declare they are associated with Jesus' message, movement, and mandate. Believer's baptism is a public shout of the believer's new identification in Christ; it's a public affirmation of faith in Christ, and it is a public demonstration of the cross of Christ.
