Jesus Gets Baptized

Ridgecrest Baptist Church - Sermons

Bro. Ray begins a BRAND NEW sermon series called "The Story Of Jesus."

We explore the significance of baptism through the lens of Jesus' own baptism in the Jordan River. We learn that baptism is not just a ritual, but a profound act of obedience and identification with Christ.

Biblical baptism is by immersion, as demonstrated by Jesus Himself. This act symbolizes our repentance and new life in Christ. We're reminded that there's a strong connection between our obedience to God and experiencing His power in our lives.

Just as the Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus after His baptism, we too can experience the filling and anointing of the Spirit when we surrender control of our lives to Him.

This message challenges us to examine our own obedience and commitment to Christ, urging us to take that first step of faith through baptism if we haven't already done so.
