Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ.

Go to the people of all nations and make them my disciples.
​Baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Matthew 28:19
Baptism by immersion symbolizes the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and is your public declaration that you have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. Baptism does not save you, but shows the world that you have already been saved. And while baptism is not required for salvation, it is a biblical command and demonstrates your love and obedience to Christ.



Am I spiritually ready for Baptism?

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward commitment to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
​HRCC  believes the decision to be baptized is up to the individual and that he or she must fully understand what it means to be a Christ follower.
Once someone professes faith in Jesus Christ for salvation, the Bible says they should proclaim the life change that has occurred—the watching world needs to know:
​
  • Believers are those who have realized that their sins have separated them from God.
  • They have given up all efforts to reach God through their own good works or religious activity.
  • They have concluded that Jesus Christ’s death on the cross for their sins is the only thing that can bridge the gap between them and God.
  • A believer is someone who has decided to trust Christ alone for his or her salvation. 


Picture

If you are ready to get baptized, please e-mail Pastor Calvin or Pastor Jimmy and we will get you on the schedule. Baptisms occur on Sunday mornings during worship at either the 9 or 11 AM service. Family members and friends are welcome to come to your baptism.
