Finding Faith

[StevenJ]

I woke up months ago and realized that I had given up on myself and my life. For years I had been mostly sitting and rotting away, waiting for Father to come. I decided that was nonsense, I am too young to be waiting in that manner. I searched my heart and my earliest memories and found goodness, and value within my own humanity once more. I found my inner Angel and my Faith once again.
I found these forums looking for any recorded information about self-Baptism, that would match one of my earliest childhood memories. The old man who demonstrated that ceremony 50 years ago also called it standing the Angel. A ceremony that I fear has been forgotten, and outright suppressed by the various religious doctrines over the years.
That old man and my first Teachers were Lutheran; which I will lay claim to for my Faith. But even the preacher at the Church I have started to attend has never heard of that ceremony before.
So this is just me. Father does watch over us all; and I Pray that you all receive His Blessings as He does come.

Welcome to CF!

Even Jesus didn’t baptize Himself and asked John the Baptist to baptize Him.

Hi Steven;
welcome to CF; May the Lord Jesus guide you here as well as in the world; and may you find friends and what ever you need from the Lord here.

I do have a question for you; do you like music--Praise & Worship music?

I have found; in times of trouble; like we have with this CV-19; that listening to; and singing along to good Christian P&W music; can bring us closer to Jesus and His wonderful peace.

Well we have a new forum here at CF just for P&W music and at the top is a directory of other Christian music threads around CF; come and take a look!

Hey, Steven, welcome. This is where all the sad, hurting, lonely Christians on the internet wind up, so we can hang out with each other, and lift each other up. You’re not alone. Bless you.

The self-Baptism is done before witness; it just does not require water. Words matter, the rhythm of the words matter more, but it is the intent behind the words that matter the most.
