Do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Messiah -
that he is the Son of God, God in the flesh?
Do you believe that Christ is the way to a relationship with God our Father?
Do you want to be part of His family - become a child of God?
You are ready!!!
Did you know, any baptized Christian can baptize you!
Be sure to be baptised in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit (Holy Ghost)
Or you can ask your pastor or find a church to join.

You should be baptized right after you've been saved. It's a a public statement that you are a follower of Christ, similar to a wedding ring for marriage. If you know what the meaning of baptisim is, then that's when you should be baptized.

When you are ready to go your most anti-Christian friend and tell them that you will follow Christ, that would be the best time. Baptism is just an out-word sign of an in-word change. Good luck and God Bless,

One requirement for baptism is for you to 'BELIEVE'.
Acts 8:36-37
"And as they went on the way, they came unto a certain water; and the eunuch saith, Behold, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?
And Philip said, If thou believest with all thy heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. "

You are ready if you have turned your life over to Christ and have even a small understanding of why you want to be baptised.
