Bible Study
You may also already have a thriving relationship with God, which is wonderful! Coming to Adventism might be the result of God showing you further truth in the Bible.
Baptism
Like many Protestant Christians worldwide and throughout history, the Seventh-day Adventist Church believes in baptism by immersion, a ceremony in which individuals briefly go under water to symbolically and publicly demonstrate “dying to an old life” and “beginning a new life in Jesus Christ.”
The idea of “dying to an old life” refers to accepting and honoring Jesus’ death to sin and resurrection to righteousness. By submerging and re-emerging from the water, we are declaring that we will live with our minds fixed on Jesus, rather than the broken world around us. (Romans 6:1-5; Galatians 2:20; Colossians 2:12).
