Feast of Water Baptism 2024: Spiritual Revival and the Promise of the Eternal Covenant in the New Life Christian Mission"
Water baptism is a sacrament by which a person unites with God, accepting His grace and the promise of eternal salvation. This day was significant and special for 26 people and youth of the Christian Awakening Center, who made a covenant with the Lord on this significant day.
With open hearts and joy in their souls, the new believers accepted salvation "by faith!" in Jesus Christ.
The words of the Holy Scriptures remind us of the importance of true repentance and faith: "Produce therefore a fruit worthy of repentance."
Water baptism is a commandment of Jesus Christ, and every Christian is called to fulfill it.
On this day, every new believer
... "promised to serve the Lord
"faithfully and truly",
accepting eternal Salvation. These words and actions were an expression of their deep faith and determination to follow the path shown by the Lord.
The celebration was filled with joy, new emotions, acquaintances, and fellowship. This day will remain in the memory of many as a moment of spiritual revival and strengthening of faith.
But the most important thing is loyalty, one of the highest moral qualities of a person that has been valued at all times. Loyalty to the Lord and His commandments became the key theme of this holiday. Jesus Christ calls us through the Gospel of Matthew 28:18-20:
"And Jesus drew near and said to them, 'All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you; and, lo, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Amen."
