Baptism (Ebook)

Order this book

At a time when many professing Christians live a faith that is distant and disconnected from the local community of believers , this book offers an urgent call to reflect on two foundational aspects of the Christian life: believer’s baptism and membership in a local church .

Written by Erroll Hulse , a well-known pastor and writer with a strong Reformed background, this booklet not only explains the biblical meaning of baptism, but also invites the reader to consider their responsibility as an active member of a church. The author highlights how ignoring these commands of Christ can lead to a weak, disordered, and even negligent Christian life—especially in terms of fellowship, prayer, and service.

This book addresses essential questions:

• What does it mean to be baptized according to the teachings of Scripture?
• Why is baptism more than just a symbolic act—it is a public commitment?
• What is the importance of being a member of a local church?
• How does our relationship with Christ shape our faithfulness to the congregation?

Hulse reminds us that baptism is not optional or merely a religious formality; it is an ordinance instituted by Jesus Christ Himself and is an integral part of our identity and responsibility as His disciples. To be baptized means to embrace a life of fellowship, obedience, and service within the body of Christ, which is the church.

Ideal for both personal study and group discussion , this booklet is a valuable resource for those who desire to live out their faith with integrity, commitment, and faithfulness to the Lord.
