Been lurking here for a few months, you guys have helped me come to Christ.

I got saved 2 months ago, my church is having a special baptism service for a few people tomorrow and I'm going to be baptized with them in a baptist church. I am so happy. What was it like when you got baptized? Will the water be cold?

First OP, congrats you are taking this step. May God bless you. Second, I suggest you read the Didache (a book written by the 12 Apostles) regarding baptism:

>1. Concerning baptism, baptise thus: Having first rehearsed all these things, "baptise, in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost," in running water;

>2. But if thou hast no running water, baptise in other water, and if thou canst not in cold, then in warm.

>3. But if thou hast neither, pour water three times on the head "in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost."

>4. And before the baptism let the baptiser and him who is to be baptised fast, and any others who are able. And thou shalt bid him who is to be baptised to fast one or two days before.

Should I fast? My pastor didn't suggest this but if I must fast then I will.

I was baptized at 8 years old. I don't remember much, but the water was cold.

I don't really care about sophisticated theology and all that stuff. All I want is Jesus and that's why I decided to get baptized. I've been going to church for 2 months now and the community has really welcomed me and taught me about Christ's message.

Please don't let anybody make you doubt your salvation or Christ's promises.

Love you man, and I believe you'll do great works for God. Needed more than ever.

You will flake out at the first difficulty you meet on your journey, and that will be the end of it.

All journeys must begin from a first step. Congrats, OP. Remember to read your Bible daily; man does not live on bread alone, but on the Word of God.

Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
