Members John81 Posted October 13, 2008 Members Share Posted October 13, 2008 We had a small baptismal where I was baptised. It was more like an oversized bathtub or horse trough!

Members IM4given Posted October 13, 2008 Members Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hallelujah and Praise the Lord1 Another saved sinner added to the fold! I was baptized in the Mighty Muddy Mississippi River by Bro Raliegh Stratton - and yes indeed the water was cold (and my pastor could not swim!). May 18th is my "re-birth" day!

Members John81 Posted October 13, 2008 Members Share Posted October 13, 2008 I don't have any pictures of my baptism and I don't know the exact date I was born again in late September 1981. Praise God He drew me to His Son and I was born again and I praise God further that I was rightly baptised by a fine Baptist pastor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DeafBaptist Posted October 13, 2008 Author Members Share Posted October 13, 2008 The joy carried over into today and I think I've annoyed a few people but I'm still excited about my baptism... I can't believe there are Christians who don't get excited about being saved or baptized... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 :goodpost: DeafBaptist. Praise God for another child born into His Kingdom!! I am so happy to have you as a brother in Christ...Brian. :thumb Your Baptismal looks much like the tub where I was Baptized at my old IFB church. The first time...I just jumped in...I didn't know what I was doing. :sad The Lord waited and I got saved a few years later, though. I was so happy to be obedient and follow Him in the Ordinance of Baptism. I couldn't wait. YAY! Both times the tub was so warm...my old IFB pastor likes it like a "hot tub." :lol HC... I have been to Clarksburg, WV. It is so beautiful there. The mountains are gorgeous. :smile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
