“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 28:19

The Evangelical Church hold that full-body immersion is necessary for valid baptism. We note that the original Greek word for baptize, baptizo, meant to immerse or submerge.

Baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.It is an act of obedience symbolising the believer’s faith in a crucified, buried, and risen Saviour, the believer’s death to sin, the burial of the old life, and the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ Jesus.
