Fundamental Beliefs of Seventh-day Adventists
Belief #14
Baptism
Statement: By baptism we confess our faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus
Christ, and testify of our death to sin and of our purpose to walk in
newness of life. Thus we acknowledge Christ as Lord and Savior, become
His people, and are received as members by His church. Baptism is a symbol
of our union with Christ, the forgiveness of our sin, and our reception
of the Holy Spirit. It is by immersion in water and is contingent on an
affirmation of faith in Jesus and evidence of repentance of sin. It
follows instruction in the Holy Scriptures and acceptance of their teachings.
