The Bible teaches that baptism is an essential step for all professing Christians. In Matthew 28:18-20, Jesus commissions His followers to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This passage makes it clear that baptism is not optional for believers but a command given by Jesus Himself, as part of the Great Commission.
Baptism represents a public testimony of faith, a way of showing the world that we have chosen to follow Christ and are now part of His kingdom. It is an act of obedience to Christ’s teachings and an outward expression of an inward transformation.
