Did you know that Baptism is derived from the Greek word baptizo, meaning to dip, plunge, or immerse? This means that the whole body is immersed in water just as Christ was buried, and coming out of the water represents His resurrection, making you a new person with no sin. You can find this symbolism in Romans 6:4. However, some churches sprinkle water, which is not Baptism according to the Bible. Where did that theory come from? The Bible shows Jesus came up out of the water in Matthew 3:16, and John the Baptist sought places with much water because full immersion requires it, as mentioned in John 3:23.

@MagnusIdode what type of Christian are Magnus?

@maxelcat
I'm a member of the Church of Christ. We believe fully in the Bible (The New Testament); we do not add nor remove. We speak where the Bible speaks, and where it is silent, we are silent.

Did you find fact in the post after verifying it? I'm here to tell you what the majority of churches in the world are practicing that are not Biblical. Regarding our commitment to not add to or remove from God's word, we follow the principle found in Deuteronomy 4:2, which commands that we must not add to or take away from the word, and we also adhere to the warning found in Revelation 22:18-19.

They provide a clear look at our commitment to the Bible and our practice of speaking where the Bible speaks and remaining silent where it is silent.
