Water immersion baptism spiritually signifies an identification or pertaining in Christ suffering, persecution, crucifixion or death, his burial, resurrection or ascension into Heaven. 2nd Timothy 3:12 "Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution" Baptism illustrates a believer’s identification with Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection.
Romans 6:3-4 "Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
The action of being immersed in the water pictures dying and being buried with Christ. The action of coming out of the water illustrates Christ’s resurrection. As a result, baptism in the river is the only method of baptizing which illustrates being buried with Christ and being raised with Him. When someone is physically dead, such person is said to be buried in tomb under the ground.
On a contrary note, when someone is dead in sin, such person must be buried in water in the River. Baptizing in water in the river is an act of obedience, a public proclamation of faith in Christ and identification with Him. Baptism is a picture of our leaving our old life and becoming a new creation 2 Corinthians. 5:17.
Baptism in the river is the only mode that fully illustrates this radical change. Baptism answer of a good conscience towards God, 1 Peter 3:21 ”The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ”
Repentance brings one out of the worldly system while baptism brings one into the kingdom of God and it’s a must for every genuine Christian who aim to make Heaven to be baptized in water immersion as it was written Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned”
What Does Baptism Mean To Us?
Below steps is an account of water baptism as you walked into the river to confess Christ as your Lord and personal savior---ceasing your breath as you are dipped inside the river and resurrecting back unto life.
- HE DIED (You Must Dies In Him). Romans 6:6-7 "Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him , that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin, For he that is dead is freed from sin"
- HE WAS BURIED (You Must Buried With Him). Romans 6:4 "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life"
- HE WAS RAISED (You Must Have A New Life In Him). Romans 6:5 "For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection"
- HE ASCENDED (You Must Also Ascend With Him). Ephesians 2:6 "And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus" Colossians 3:1 "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God"
Steps To Consider Before Water Immersion Baptism:
1. Repentance Unto God Or Salvation: You must first Confess and repent from all your sins by acknowledging Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal saviour through God's grace. Which will empowers you to forbid every form of worldliness and overcome persecution. (You must sort out for a genuine bible believing church).
2. Sanctification: Your old adamic nature ought to be uprooted and purified by WATER (The word of God) . John 3:5 "Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God"
3. Water Immersion Baptism: You must be reasonable in age enough to detect between good and evil before going into water immersion baptism. Water baptism is not conducted on infant babies or children below reasoning ages.
You must have undergoes through series of bible teachings and acquire spiritual knowledge's of important of salvation and water baptism before proceeding into baptism. The water immersion baptism must be conducted in “FLOWING RIVER” and not in “Swimming Pool or Water Dam” When this is accurately enacted---it helps in breaking demonic yokes and bondage, afflictions and opens heavens for breakthrough and new beginning in the life of a christian.
Why Should Water Immersion Baptism Be Conducted In Flowing River?
The reason you must be baptize in a rivers is because rivers flows. Water immersion baptism is a spiritual exercise and If peradventure God opened your spiritual eyes to behold what goes on during water baptism you will take baptism very serious.
What happens in spirit is that; our sins are washes away with the flowing water and when it washes away it shouldn't be stored in the water. It must flow away that's why it shouldn't be in Dam or Swimming Pool which doesn't flow.

So if in case your sins are stored in the swimming pool will it be clean or purified to be use for another person? I mean, is like washing your hands after visiting the toilet room in bowl containing water that doesn't flow out and not in running or flowing tap. Hence, would it be convenient to be used by another person? Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin"

4. Holy Ghost Baptism: You must joined church work force or groups/departments immediately after water immersion baptism and began to strive for Holy Ghost baptism which will empower you to work effectively as a worker in such department.
God’s Accepted Mode Of Water Immersion Baptizing:
The word “BAPTIZE” originates from a Greek word “BAPTIZO” meaning “immerse”. And the word “BAPTISM” comes from a Greek word “BAPTISMA” which means “to submerge in water”. Therefore, baptism by sprinkling or by pouring is an oxymoron, something that is self-contradictory (e.g. diabolic angelical). Baptism by sprinkling would mean “submerging someone in water by sprinkling on them.”
Baptism, by its inherent definition, MUST be an act of immersion in water. Notwithstanding, some people uses “swimming pool” or basin, then fill it with water for baptism! No, it is absolutely unrighteous. That can never be the right way of baptism forever! We must follow the foot-steps of Christ Jesus; not creating ideals that are divergent on what is natural, then laundering it with a whitewash.
Mark 1:4 -5 that “John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; AND there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins”

Matthew 3:13-17 “Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”
Satanism In Baptism Today:
The oxymoron
“Baptism by sprinkling or pouring” came into practice as a result of the unbiblical practice of “
Infant Baptism”. It is very abysmal and unrighteous for a baby to undergo baptism. What does hinder them to be baptized? Before someone will be baptized, that person must believe with Jesus Christ and His teachings
Acts 8:35-38.

| Dam or Swimming Pool |
Therefore, a child neither believes, nor disbelieves, but remains agnostic; because they distinguish nothing. Now can you see and imagine how popes, bishops, pastors, preachers, teachers and countless Christians died without baptism? The reason is Satanism has manipulated baptism. Devil is a liar and the author of all lies!
Get On The Right Track With God:
Hence, I plead with you that if you haven’t done water immersion baptism and you believe in Jesus; meanwhile your ministry does not practice this righteous act, find yourself a church that obeys the word of God Almighty [the Bible] and go through “Baptism” in the River.
On this occasion, the Baptist must say “I am baptizing you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy-Ghost. Amen. Matthew. 28:19-20. And you shall receive the gift of the Holy-Ghost, Acts 2:38.
Nevertheless, water immersion baptism is conducted only "Once" and it’s a must for every godly believer with heavenly mindset before permission into Heaven after salvation----It is for those who are specially opportune with "Few Grace Of Life" after their salvation unlike the thief who was crucified with Christ, who didn't have such grace.
Why You Need To Get Re-Baptized?
Water immersion baptism is only done "Once". However; there is an urgent need to re-baptize when not conducted in accordance with the word of God.
- If you ignorantly conducted an immersion water baptism in "Swimming Pool or Dam" in your church---you need to re-baptize in your new church which has access to a "River". It is very important to make inquires before joining or identifying with any church as a full member about their mode of water immersion baptism.
- If you participated in an immersion water baptism as an infant or underage---not able to cultivate between good and evil, you need to re-baptize now that you are knowledgeable.
- If you carnally undergoes into water baptism without full knowledge of the meaning or significant water baptism, salvation and power of God's grace due to nonchalant and careless attitude of your church in soul winning. Thereby refusing to teach and lectures her brethren about the significant of identifying in Christ suffering, death and resurrection. Hence at this moment you need to re-baptized in your new church which provide godly teachings and availability spiritual lecturers to cater all bothering questions.
- If your previous church doctrine contradict the original principle word of God; such as, not believing in rapture, heaven and hell, resurrection, outward and inward modesty. Whenever you acknowledge such erroneous teaching in your former church; there is an urgent need to re-baptize in your new church which offers genuine bible teachings.
- If you obviously aware that your previous church foundation was demonic and filled with deception entices. You are also advised to re-baptize in your new church which possess godly foundation.
