What’s the Purpose of Water Baptism?
Water baptism is a public declaration of our identification with Jesus and His death, burial, and resurrection. It’s a Christian's first step of obedience to follow Christ. By getting baptized you are publicly saying to those around you that you have “died” to yourself and have decided to “follow” Jesus.

Scripture indicates that the requirement for water baptism is that a person has trusted their life over to Jesus Christ by faith, and wants to yield the leadership of their life to Him in an honest and ongoing spiritual relationship (see Acts 2:32, Acts 2:41, Acts 8:12, Acts 8:36, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:48, Acts 16:15, Acts 19:5, and Romans 6:3).
