Can I be Baptized?

Brookside Baptist Church is a Baptist church. Here, we believe that baptism is to be administered after salvation. 

If you have already accepted Christ as your Savior, trusting exclusively on Him and not in any work of your own, you are ready to be baptized! 

Do you remember the Ethiopian man from the book of Acts? After learning about Christ from Philip, he asked,

"See, here is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized?"

Philip said that he could! There was only one stipulation:

And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God?

If 'yes,' not only can you be baptized, you should be baptized! 

_{The only reason we would discourage you from being baptized is if you are still uncertain of your salvation. If you are, please read this longer article on that subject, and/or reach out to us by emailing preachrepentance@proton.me.}
