In your quiet moments, do you ever wonder about your purpose in life? About God, or heaven, or what happens when this life is over? If you do, don't worry. You are not alone. In fact this is a question common to all humanity. Are you there right now? If so, let us help you discover life giving answers in God's story.

First steps:
Salvation
From the beginning God has always had a plan for mankind but man decided to chart his own destiny. Even though this action brought separation, God in His infinite mercy, made a way to restore our broken relationship through faith in Jesus Christ.

Check out these verses in God’s amazing story of love and grace. You may well find yourself a central character in it. Luke 19:10, 1 John 1:1-4, Genesis 3:8-24, Ephesians 2:8-9, Tit. 3:5-7, John 1:12, 3:16, Matt. 25-31-46, 1 Tim. 4:10, 1 John 2:2, Phil. 1:6, Rom. 8:29-39)

Baptism
Just as a wedding ring is an outward expression of marriage, Baptism is an outward expression of commitment to follow Jesus Christ. If you have taken the first step and know Christ as your Savior and the one who leads you, then Scripture demonstrates that Baptism is a vital next step for you. Celebrate your relationship with Jesus in the company of friends, family, and others who have decided to declare what Christ has done for them.

Let these scriptures encourage you as you take this important step in commitment to our Lord, Jesus Christ. Matthew 3:14-16,  Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38, Mark 16:16, Acts 8:12, Col 2:11-13,

Preparation classes for baptism and the actual baptismal services are held each quarter at Bethel. Please call our office at 232.1136 x 34 for more information.
