Baptism

Want To Get Baptized?

Here at First Baptist Church of Auburn, we believe that baptism is an ordinance that Jesus established for His church. Its purpose is two-fold, signifying a person’s initiation into the church and his declaration of faith and submission to the church’s builder and head, the Lord Jesus Christ. The believer is initiated as a member of God’s new covenant family as he symbolically declares his union with Christ in His life, death, burial, and resurrection (Rom 6:3-4). So significant is this act that, except for the thief on the cross, there is no example in Scripture of a Christian who was not also baptized.

"And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,  teaching them to follow all that I commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”"
 Matthew 28:18-20
