I was baptized just two years ago. I was sooo afraid that my pastor would like pull a trick on me or something. As he is that kind of guy. That was one of the best baptizms i have ever been to because there was this lady who could never walk, and she wanted to be baptized. So we had to carry her down into the pool that we were doing the baptizm in and after the baptizm SHE COULD WALK!!! She was running around the lawn. And it was sooo amazing. She still has to use a cane. But it goes to show that God still preforms miracles!

i was baptised on the 10th of may 2002. i had attendened a youth alpha course where i truly found god and spent months longing to be baptised. i moved house after the course though so i had to wait for a few months. iwas baptised as a member in my new church but had members from my old church there to witness it too! it was great!!!

Question Baptised Twice... thrice? - 10-30-05, 10:53 AM

Yada, I'm like you. I was baptised as baby by the Catholics, but oddly raised in a very godless home. I found God on my own, as an atheist, at 25 years old, I accepted Christ as my personal savior. It took many years to become a "real Christian" and to understand what it all meant, really. But initially, I got saved and baptised by Calvary Fellowship in Seattle, Washington. Considering my ways were not very Christlike for the first decade of attempts, sometimes I think I'd like to be baptised again. Anybody ever backslide, and then get baptised one more time? I'd like to know if anybody's ever done that. God bless all of you for seeking the Truth, the Way, and the Light. - In Christ, CaliFlower

I think i was Baptised in the holy spirit at age 7, (well my mum said i gave myself to christ at a Billy Graham thing at a big football stadium) Still would really want to be Baptise in water one day.......
I may have excepted Christ at 7 but ignored him till i was 23, all i can say is i'm so pleased he chose my beautiful wife and i...........


I was once lost, searching, but now i have found my true saviour, my Lord Jesus Christ, i thank him for choosing me !!!!

I was baptized as a baby through Catholic church, but.... then when I was born again I was baptized again on November 2, 2003. I was 16 when that happened.
For me it was very important, I had never been interested in God before, and I was born again, so I wanted to be baptized in my new life .
And this will last forever.


How can I stand here with You, and not be moved by You?

sorry i missed one poll entry I was as good religious parents are baptised as an infant. The Me and my brother were rebaptized together when we we 13, lol we are 50 wks apart so we joke that we are twins for 2 weeks. anyway it was strange what happened we both went in differant directions from there. It sounds corny but that is when i recieved the spirit
i always wondered why people baptise their children at birth. First the innocent are saved purely by innocents. second baptism should be done in early teens when they are old enough to take responsibility for their own spiritual development.

Praise our God.
it's marvelous, I was only recently Baptised in Sept 07 couldn't get it arranged, until I changed churches, Holy Spirit lead, and all of a sudden without even asking it happened.
It was a water Baptism, full immersion.
It's a wonderful experiece, I have it on DVD, nearly my whole family came.
I so felt annionted with the presence of the Holy Spirit for long enough after it.
Baby Baptism is Tradition, holds no Biblical significance, people just follow tradition, as my Mum made me with my children, it's only when I was born again that I realized this is of no importance.
Read somewhere that if a child dies and he/she hasn't been baptised do you mean that child will not go to heaven because they were never baptised as a baby, not at all, Jesus said Himself that if we don't have the faith of a child we will not see the kingdom of God.
They just believe they don't question as adults do, my Grandson of 10yrs received Jesus only a few weeks ago, I dare say he doesn't understand much, but he believes.
Enjoy your Baptism, brother, Hallelujah, Jesus made it all possible.


The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek Him. Ezra 8 V22
