What is Bible Repentance? Repentance involves changing one's affections - from earthly things to heavenly things. It involves turning to the living God from a god of self.

Why Be Baptized? Among our Lord's last words to his disciples was the charge to preach the saving gospel to all men. In Matthew Chapter 28,verse 19, he said, "Go you therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost". The question before us is what was and is the action of that baptism commanded by Christ and his apostles. 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.

How to Pray Acceptably The kingdom for which they were taught to pray did come in their lifetime (Mark 9: 1). We must always pray in accordance with God's revealed will (I John 5: 14,15). We must live in union with him (John 15: 7). The entire godhead is involved in our prayers. Our petitions are to the Father (Matthew 6: 9), through the name of Christ, who is our mediator (I Timothy 2: 5; Acts 4: 12), and with the help of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8: 26). Just as baptism is in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, so expressing in Jesus name would indicate unity of godhead (Matthew 8: 19). Prayer should never take the place of our spiritual efforts to get things done. We should pray as if all depended on God and work as if all depended on us. The emphasis is on work and pray, or watch and pray. We should never pray selfishly (James 4: 3). Again, we are taught to put the Lord's business first in prayer (Matthew 9: 37,39).
