SCRIPTURAL PATTERN OF WATER BAPTISM

God bless you for taking your time to study.

SCRIPTURAL PATTERN OF WATER BAPTISM 

TEXT: ACTS 8:26-38 

 FRIDAY DECEMBER 23rd 

Key verse: Mark 16:16-He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. 
Water baptism is by single immersion. The word, ‘baptism’ means buried. It means you died and are buried with Christ and as you rise up from the water, you are rising with Christ to newness of life. This is symbolic; that you are identified with Jesus. Only those who have believed the gospel of Christ should be baptized. It is not for children. If you baptize them it has no meaning. Somebody who does not believe cannot be baptized. You may argue that you want them to serve God later. Pray for them and wait till they believe the gospel else there is nothing you can do about it. Do not baptize infants and children because you will confuse them. 
Now look at this evil doctrine as it plays out. When the infants grow up afterward, rather than teaching them the word of salvation to receive Christ so that they can believe and be properly baptized, they rather go for confirmation. These are the doctrines of devils that confuse people and lead them to damnation. Which scripture do you refer to? These are traditions and doctrines of men that have no light in them. Some get born again later and rather than submit to proper baptism, they argue that they were baptized as children. Did you know Jesus then? Were you convicted of your sins? That is not scriptural baptism.
If you are now born again, go and be baptized and do not respect the errors of your churches and ministers. Save your lives. The Lord is not going to judge you based on the name of your church but His judgment will be according to His word. Proud persons shall be rejected. If you are proud, you are rejected by God already. God is a humble Person, and He is teaching you humility that you should humble yourself and be saved. That is the word of God and the teaching of righteousness.

Thought for the day: Water baptism is for born again converts

Song for the day: I am ready to obey Your word (3x)

Bible reading for the day: Habakkuk; Revelation 14

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2)

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE HOREMOW DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY PASTOR PAUL RIKA INTERNATIONAL DIRECTOR. DATE: FRIDAY JULY 17, 2026. TOPIC: HOW TO BE SANCTIFIED (PART 2) TEXT: HEBREWS 11:1-6 1. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2. For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3. Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. 4. By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 5. By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligent...
