BE BAPTIZED!
God said concerning Jesus, “THIS IS MY SON … OBEY HIM”
[Lk 9:35 GN]. Jesus says, “THOSE WHO LOVE ME WILL
OBEY MY TEACHING” [Jn 14:23 GN]. Many claim they love
Jesus but do not obey Him. One of Jesus most elementary
teachings is “WHOEVER BELIEVES AND IS BAPTIZED
WILL BE SAVED” [Mk 16:16 GN], so it is good to be baptized,
believing by itself is not enough. Jesus, our role model, gave us an
example by being baptized at the beginning of His ministry. Many
have read Jesus statement and decide once they are baptized they
are saved so they no longer continue obeying Jesus. When Jesus
tells us to “OBEY MY TEACHING” we are not to just obey some
and not others. Being baptized may be one of the first acts of
obedience but we must continue to obey Jesus in all our life. Jesus
our role model told John to baptize Him because “I MUST DO
ALL THAT IS RIGHT” [Mt 3:15 TL]. Are you baptized?
