Why Be Baptized? Why Be Baptized? Click to View Among our Lord's last words to his disciples was the charge to preach the saving gospel to all men.

The Bible clearly describes the action of Christian baptism as a burial in water, for baptism is a likeness to the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. We are not saved by our own goodness, but by the goodness, the love, and the favor of God. We are not saved by our own merit, but by the blood of Jesus Christ.

Evangelistic Tent Meetings urban areas. The Jule Miller Film Strips are a great help in teaching. Tent meetings take a lot of physical work and a lot of looking after details. There is a good bit of damage, wear and loss--on pickup truck, trailer, tent, poles, lights, generator, amplifier and speaker, benches, speaker's stand, projector, song books, etc. It is not a one-man job. Brethren accompanying David are very helpful. Each meeting is different. You have to take things as you find them. Ability to handle drunks is helpful! The home classes and other calls made during the day are an essential part of a tent meeting's success. Even with the best kind of pre-baptism teaching and follow-up effort, one-half of the number baptized will prove to be still-born. Without good follow-up teaching, most of the others baptized will fall away. Years prove that some will continue to be faithful, and all the effort was justified.

cr-UBF-university-bible-fellowship The UBF (University Bible fellowship) is just another flavor of "Baptist". In Canada we have several of these, like Philpot Memorial (AGC Associate Gospel Churches). They all tend to be the same. Generally, they accept the Bible as God's inspired word and expect good moral living. However they all share the same false doctrines being Calvinistic, have women preachers, use instrumental music, and most horrifying, teach salvation by faith only and reject the necessity of water baptism for the remission of sins. They teach the sinners prayer. Most unusual is that this church also baptizes infants and take the spineless position that how your are baptized (sprinkling pouring or immersion) is a matter of personal choice rather than being dogmatic by insisting on the Bible pattern of full immersion... just like Jesus and all early Christians were baptized.
