God's Faithfulness In Baptism In Water

In 1966 I was still going beween two churches. The Presbyterian Church and the Pentecostal AOG. It was announced at AOG that a Baptismal Service was to be held and I was invited to be a participant. I asked my Presbyterian Minister,who I loved and respected,if I could be baptised in his church. He said,'You have already been baptised when you were a baby'. I explained that I wanted to be baptised by full immersion as a believer in Jesus Christ. He said kindly,but firmly,'We don't do that here. If that is what you want,you need to join your friends up the road'. So I did and never looked back,although I appreciated my upbringing there. I was baptised in water in obedience to my LORD and Master,Jesus Christ my Saviour. It was a wonderful experience,symbolic of death to sin and new life through Christ. 'Follow,follow I would follow Jesus...'
