Baptisms

Water baptism is deeply significant for Christians as both a public declaration of faith and a symbolic representation of spiritual transformation. When a believer is fully immersed in water, it symbolizes dying to their old life of sin and being buried with Christ, while rising up from the water represents being raised to new life in Him.

Baptism is important for a number of reasons: it's an act of obedience to Christ's command to be baptized, a public testimony of one's faith commitment, and a symbolic cleansing that represents the washing away of sin through God's grace.
