Answer three important questions to help you determine if you should get baptized again.
Talking Points:
- In your first baptism, had you personally trusted Jesus for salvation? If not, you should definitely get baptized again! Romans 6:3-4
- In your first baptism, was it connected to a Bible-believing Christian church? If not, you should definitely get baptized again!
- If you want to get baptized as a sign of re-commitment, what’s your motive? The Bible doesn’t have any examples of re-baptism – but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it. Romans 3:22
Discussion:
- Initial reactions to this topic? What jumped out at you?
- If you’ve been baptized before, describe the circumstances surrounding that baptism.
- Read Romans 6:3-4. What does baptism signify? What does it mean to you that you can have new life in Jesus?
- If you were baptized in a different church/religion, what did baptism mean in that tradition and how does that differ from what the Bible teaches about it?
- Read Romans 3:22. If you’re making a re-commitment, why is being baptized again important to you?
- Is there a step you need to take based on today’s topic?
