- 00:03
- Glory, glory, hallelujah. Glory, glory, hallelujah.
- 00:12
- Glory, glory, hallelujah. His truth is marching on.
- 00:21
- Glory, glory, hallelujah. And that you have given forgiveness of sin and eternal life through your name.
- 00:32
- Thank you, Jesus, for this indescribable gift. And now, Lord, we dedicate this time to you.
- 00:37
- We pray for those who are going to give a testimony, that they wouldn't be nervous, that they can talk as brothers and sisters.
- 00:43
- And just share from their heart the conversion that happened through the regeneration of the
- 00:49
- Holy Spirit. Neil, if you prefer, whatever. Amazing grace, how sweet the sound.
- 01:02
- How sweet my heart to thee.
- 01:10
- How precious didst believe.
- 01:18
- Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
- 01:25
- On the day of Pentecost, the Spirit descended from heaven and so filled the 120 believers that they went out speaking in tongues and people heard in their own languages.
- 01:38
- But Peter stood up among them and preached the gospel. On that day, the first day in which the church was born, 3 ,000 people believed what
- 01:49
- Peter preached. And that very day, all 3 ,000 of them went down under the water in baptism.
- 01:57
- I've always been a Christ believer since a very young kid.
- 02:04
- I grew up in the Catholic church, which I adhere to principles and things like that.
- 02:11
- Jesus says, if you love your father or mother more than me, you do not love me.
- 02:18
- If you love your son or daughter more than me, you do not value anybody in this life more than Jesus Christ.
- 02:28
- And it wasn't until I got my knee to be baptized with the knowledge and the faith that I have been so blessed by God to be shown to me that this is where you need to be until then.
- 02:47
- Recognition of that. And that's why I want to be baptized today. Linda, would you like to go next?
- 03:00
- I'm going to, finally. Okay. So, I only know that our
- 03:07
- Lord and heavenly Father gave me a chance early in life, being born, raised, and thoroughly educated
- 03:14
- Catholic. I knew of Jesus, but I didn't know Jesus. By this emergent baptism,
- 03:26
- I openly profess Jesus Christ, Yeshua, Emmanuel, Messiah, to be my
- 03:35
- Lord and Savior, the Sovereign, my Lord. Thank you,
- 03:40
- Jesus, for letting me in your life to pay for my sins and forgive me for my poor and your crucifixion.
- 03:50
- May you praise me, too. Amen. He said, meaning
- 04:06
- Jesus, it's not those who are healthy who need a physician, but those who are sick.
- 04:12
- In Acts 16, 31 and 33, he thought that he was going to kill himself.
- 04:19
- And Paul said, no, it's okay, we're all here. Believe in the Lord Jesus and you shall be saved.
- 04:26
- And immediately, he was baptized. And thank you for listening to me. And thank you, everybody, for coming.
- 04:33
- And my family, too. It would be a miracle. Great job. Thank you. Whenever we have a baptism service, there always seems to be a theme.
- 04:47
- It kind of emerges. People saying similar things, like, you are surrendering. I picture that as like the jailer, who's always been the one in control.
- 04:55
- But he had to put down the sword and surrender and believe in the
- 05:01
- Lord Jesus Christ. He says, you trusted in Jesus. And you quoted that verse, as I did, as well.
- 05:06
- Acts 16. Yeah. Yeah, you were thinking about what you were going to say. But the Lord had to say it, too. So that's a theme that's coming out.
- 05:14
- Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Judy, you ready? It needs to be in the past directions for his name's sake.
- 05:53
- That's what he's doing. That's what I'm doing. I'm doing obedience. There's no time for that.
- 05:59
- And it's all about Jesus. And it's all about you. I'm going to close my hand.
- 06:05
- And I'll let it in. And I'm going to have to do this. I've been doing it for so long.
- 06:12
- Because I think there was more than that. Amen. We're going to do this for you,
- 06:22
- Judy, and for all of us. Okay? Jesus loves me, this
- 06:27
- I know. For the Bible tells me so.
- 06:34
- Little ones to him belong. They are weak, but he is strong.
- 06:44
- Amen. Good afternoon. Good afternoon.
- 06:58
- Amen. Psalm 316.
- 07:07
- For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son. For whoever believes in him, a lot of praise for that eternal life.
- 07:14
- Amen. Sunday school. He sang,
- 07:21
- Jesus loves me. Jesus loves the little children. And the United Family.
- 07:27
- Acts 4 .12. If there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven, if there are no men, our nation must be saved.
- 07:38
- Amen. Often the evil one comes to attack right after a baptism.
- 07:49
- And Lord, we want to pray right now in Jesus' name that you would send your angels to encamp around those who fear you.
- 07:54
- From the church down to the ocean. So it's about four blocks. If you go out this way and take a right.
- 08:08
- Two questions and then baptize and then try a new name.
- 08:36
- Antoinette, do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of the living
- 08:42
- God, who died on the cross and rose from the dead? And have you personally trusted in Jesus for the forgiveness of your sin and eternal life?
- 08:53
- Alright, Antoinette. On the basis of your personal faith,
- 09:05
- I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Take a bow.
- 09:33
- So Judy, do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of the living
- 09:39
- God, who died on the cross and rose from the dead? And have you personally trusted in Jesus for the forgiveness of your sin?
- 09:46
- I now baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
- 09:52
- Holy Spirit. I have decided.
- 10:23
- Linda, do you believe that Jesus is the Christ, the son of God, who died on the cross and rose from the dead?
- 10:31
- I do. And have you personally trusted in Jesus for forgiveness of sin and eternal life?
- 10:36
- To follow Jesus, no turning back.
- 10:44
- The Son, and the
- 10:51
- Holy Spirit. I have decided.
- 11:50
- To follow Jesus. I have decided.
- 12:07
- I now baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the
- 12:13
- Holy Spirit. You missed it.
- 12:52
- Hey guys, we're going to close in a word of prayer. And then feel free to hang out, enjoy the moment.
- 13:01
- It actually, once again, it's nice and warm. It really does feel good. Amen. Awesome, thank you all for coming.
- 13:30
- Thank you. Thank you so much. Are you going to put my sneakers on?
- 13:40
- Bet you never thought you'd see a baptism when you went to the dog park. South Jersey, right across from Philly.
- 13:48
- There used to be a cornerstone on Route 9 in Barnigan. Oh, really? Yeah. And now it became
- 13:54
- King of Kings. King of Kings, okay. I think, but I go to Bayside. Oh, good.
