Baptism

We believe that the baptism commanded by Christ (Matt. 28:19) and preached by the Apostles is done by means of immersion (Rom. 6:4; John 3:23; Acts 8:36-38).

To qualify for baptism, one should be taught the words of God, believe in them, repent, and renew his life (Mark 16:15-16; Acts 2:38). Since an infant cannot do these things, therefore infant baptism is not practiced in the Church Of Christ. Infants or little children should be offered to God for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these (Matt. 19:13-15). Their baptism comes after they shall have qualified for it.
