What is baptism?

At Northeast, we say that Baptism is a public declaration of a private decision. We believe that every person who has placed their faith in Jesus Christ should be baptized in obedience to what He has commanded. Baptism doesn’t save you, but it symbolizes what took place in your heart at the moment you said “yes” to Jesus. Baptism shows that you…

Believe in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior who forgave your sins through His death on the cross.

Share in Christ’s death and resurrection, illustrated by going under the water (dead to your old life) then rising again (new life).

Because Jesus was baptized by immersion  (Matthew 3:16), every baptism in the Bible was by immersion (Acts 8:36-39 for example), and we believe this best symbolizes burial and resurrection, all of the baptisms we celebrate are done in this way.
