• Jesus did not baptise anyone.
• Jesus spent most of his ministry giving practical help to the needy.
• Jesus emphasised moral behaviour and the need for people to treat each other with respect and decency. Christians should follow this example.
• Being baptised or taking communion does not make a person become a Christian; it is a person’s faith which is important.
On the other hand:
• Jesus instituted the Lord’s Supper as a way for his followers to
remember his sacrifi ce on the cross.
• Christians take part in Communion/Eucharist/Mass as a way of following this command of Jesus and also to be strengthened in their faith.
• At the Great Commission, Jesus commanded his disciples to go out and preach, baptising those who believed.
• From the earliest time, baptism has been the rite of entry into the church.
• Being baptised as a baby shows cleansing and the entry into God’s family, the church.
• Believers’ baptism is the public declaration of the faith which a person has come to hold for themselves.
