Reflection

Baptism symbolises a change. Our sins are completely forgiven because of Jesus, and we are no longer slaves of sin. Rather, by the Holy Spirit, we are empowered disciples of Christ. 

Not only that, through our faith, we have become part of a new family—the church. Baptism is our initiation into this. It’s really an acknowledgement of all these things before our new spiritual family in Christ.

Next Time

When we meet again, we’ll unpack the key desires and habits that will sustain us for a lifetime of following Jesus.

Use the following questions to process your next steps:

  • After learning about baptism, do you feel ready to be baptised? Why or why not?
  • In light of your answers to the above questions, what might be the right next steps for you going forward in following Jesus?
