Baptism

Baptism at Empire Church

Baptism is a powerful and sacred step of obedience that marks a believer's decision to follow Christ wholeheartedly. At Empire Church, we believe in the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, and baptism serves as a public declaration of a personal commitment, where old life is buried, and a new life in Christ emerges.

In Acts 2:38, Peter declares, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit." This scripture underscores the significance of baptism in a believer's journey, connecting repentance with the infilling of the Holy Spirit, a cornerstone of our Pentecostal faith.

Baptism is an outward expression of an inward transformation, signifying death to sin, a fresh start with Christ, and the joyous entrance into the global community of believers. As you emerge from the water, it symbolizes the resurrection of Christ and the new life you now embark upon with Him.

If you've accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and feel led to make this public declaration of faith, we invite you to join us in this joyous occasion.
