Thank you so much axx Bible college. In the beginning of the course I thought I don’t made right decision for choosing the course, but finally I made right decision. Because I was doubtful on my procedures but I came to realize steps taken during days back are right procedures, the same like the one I got here with axx Bible college. Only that it was not done in river Jordan.
I found this course very thought provoking. I was, as many bought up in traditional churches, baptised as a baby. As I have begun my own personal journey with God, I have been drawn to learn more, dig deeper into the teachings and the journey through Jesus to salvation. I have a strong desire to dedicate myself as an adult, and have given my life to Jesus, recognising Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. I will seek baptism as an adult now, as it has such a special meaning to me, to be able to undertake this by my own volition.
The first time I have accepted Christ as my God and my Savior was 30 years ago. It was a really huge experience for me at the time, all different sorts of overwhelming emotions came flooding in all directions, emotions so mixed i could not tell which is which. It felt as if my body is carrying a very heavy load.
After coming out of the water, everything just felt so light. It’s as if everything that was weighing me down was left in the water. putting what i was feeling at that moment into words, it would be a “calm joy”.
Praise God for this program, it has, and will help more new Believers to understand the meaning of Baptism.
I have been hungry to be baptized thinking that my salvation will begin when I’m baptized. This course has helped me to know the significance of baptism. Baptism is righteousness, obidience to Christ and I didn’t have that insight. Now I’m eager to be baptized as my step in discipleship and I’m also confident that I’m already saved by grace and baptism will be the first graphical or practical demonstration of what is happening or has happened in my spirit
I have learned that child dedication it is a time when through prayer the parents dedicate their children to God. For an infant or a very young child, the ceremony of a child dedication is more appropriate than baptism. Infant baptism christening and baptisms are the same ceremony by a different name. That starting point was the high rate of infant mortality.
I AM GLAD TO HAVE LEARNT MORE ABOUT BAPTISM IN THIS COURSE,.BAPTISMAL LESSONS ARE ONGOING FOR NEW BELIEVERS IN MY LOCAL CHURCH WHO HAVE DECIDED TO BE BAPTISED. I FOUND ALOT OF HELP IN THE CORUSE WORK. THE KNOWLEDGE I ACQUIRED IS VERY HELPFUL IN PREPARING FOR THE GREAT DAY OF BAPTISM. THIS COURSE IS VERY HELPFUL AND DIRECT,GOD BLESS OUR AXX PRESIDENT.
This course allayed any fears I may have had about reasons for baptism, need for baptism or being good enough for baptism. It explained all aspects in a gentle and caring way – leaving students knowing exactly what it’s all about!! Much appreciated, thank you.
I did not knew that there were soo much version on his matter of baptism and I gained a lot of insight on this matter. I wish that my children and off springs will learn a lot on this matter and this will benefit the coming generations and the word of our Lord savior will live in our hearts forever, also it will guide us and build the communities and the society as a whole.
Iam really grateful to Axx Bible College for presenting to me a nice biblical lesson on “Baptism”
These are the points which I have derived from the lesson;
1. Baptism is by immersion as exemplified by Jesus Christ -Matthew 3:13-17
2. Baptism should be given to those who believe in Jesus Christ-Mark 16:16
3. Then since Baptism is for the believing sinners,infant Baptism is not biblical
Once more,thank you Axx Biblical College
This is the best teaching ever to me on baptism, thanks alot Axx bible college and more so lecturer Brendan Roach. All my questions about baptism are answered i have known what is baptism and i have learnt that baptism is only done once no need to be baptised again since we have one Lord one faith one baptism. I have now known who should baptize me, a disciple should baptisze a disciple and a disciple can baptize a believer, i have learned alot be blessed in Jesus name Amen
I am reminded about how I struggled with the thoughts of taking another baptism because I had fallen into sin and I thought I was no longer a believer. My pastor then told me it was not necessary. Today Dr has made it clear that we need only a one time baptism since Christ died for us once for all. I will be using some of this thoughts in preparing our candidates for water Babism but also teaching the whole church about this.
I was also blessed to understand the genesis of water sprinkling. But also happy to note that many believers are trying to sort out the problem of lack of enough water. In Karamoja region in Uganda which is a semi-arid area, sometimes they just our water from a bucket on the person being baptised. We need to here more from other areas to as we try to do baptism the right way – by imersion. Thank you

This course is fruitful as it give a clear picture of understanding baptism,how it should be done and by who.i have uncovered alot of questions about baptism,and now I’m very competitive on the topic of baptism.
May almighty god bless our lectures who are sent to teach us all this things,they are taking us from dark to light🙏🙏🙏
In my youthhood, I struggled a lot searching for the true worship of God. I then heard God’s word through the preaching in 2001. I confessed of my sins and believed God through Christ as my personal savior. I was then baptized in the running water through immersion by our church pastor as a declaration of my faith. I continued fellowshipping with other believers to grow in the faith.
I felt so transformed having undergone such an experience in my life.
My Testimony
I would like to testify what I have learned on the course of water baptism.
I am very excited to be part of AXX BIBLE COLLEGE and I am really enjoying the courses particularly the Course of Water baptism.
I have learned a lot as I stated learning this morning and I have been encouraged as a pastor how important the baptism of water is.
For is the starting point of being a Disciple of Jesus.
The evidence of the genuine repentance.
I have learned that everyone can baptize as long as he is the disciple of Jesus Christ.
Thanks and I am expecting more than this course and will continue to go through again.
God bless you my Pastor.
Hi,
First of all in December 2019, when the outbreak of corona started in China, I became very ill before the actual corona was in Europe.
This also has been a very difficult time for about a year, since I had a near death experience and was bedridden for almost a year.
I was of a different religion, and started praying to Yeshua, and He heard my prayer that particular night.
I feel blessed by Him being besides me, and since then my life had gone upward.
When I became better after that year of being in bed, I wanted to do the full immersion Baptism.
But corona was still there, and God told me several times I had to go for it, and now I am preparing to get Baptised.
And hope it to be this year! Actually 9th of April I hope to do it, so I hope to receive God’s blessings.
I just want to do this Mikveh for not just salvation, but I want to have the seal of life given by the Lord’s grace.
I want to thank the Axx Bible college with this topic of Baptism, I learn a lot, eg : when you are Baptised that shows you’re a follower or a Disciple of Jesus Christ, and you must understand the meaning of why are you Baptised not to please people, family members, pastors etc.
I have been baptised in 2008, serving our Lord Jesus Christ for 29 years now since i had an encounter with Jesus age 11.
This is truly one of the Best teachings on Baptism.
Well done, Keep this up. Our Family is praying for Dr Brenden & we are praying for AXX Bible College for Jesus to take you on New heights for His glory.
At first before I learnt about baptism through axx I had many questions about baptism now am clear and I have understood very well, thank God for Dr Brendan and the team in the axx bible college am learning and growing spiritually and knowing also how to preach and teach without misleading people.

I planned to do baptism on 7-11 ( July 11 )which is a very important day for me. 7-11 is the day that I accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour
a year ago I turned my life to believing and choosing to follow Jesus.
This course is very helpful. And I am so excited about my baptism! I am so thankful for the gift of the lord and thank you to Axx and Dr. Brendan Roach
Oh, I am lost for words. Being a young Pastor in training, and our church having communion every first Sunday of the month; this has really opened my eyes spiritually of what it is all about and my understanding of scriptures has broadened. I love how different scriptures, so many that one might think can not be used as prayer point during communion; but they carry so much weight.
I can now confidently use different scriptures in communion. This is so helpful. Thank you.
I can say that the Lord led me to this site. We will be having baptism in my church in about two months. These lessons really opened my eyes to what it really means to be baptised.
I’m truly greatful especially with such informative lesson being free. Truly the greatest word of God is indeed free. It was paid for in full on the cross.
disciple baptized disciples
please consider verse 20 in Matthew 28
teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you….. the one who can be baptized is the one who has the capacity to teach all the commandments of God.
thank you so much, Dr. Brendan Roach I learned many things about the baptism and I will share them with my local church
I have already been baptised many years ago , I have used this course as a reminder of what the responsibility I have to encourage the steps of faith . baptism to me was a contInuation of my commitment to follow Jesus . I remember my baptism well the service was a gospel call to salvation .
I’ve been preparing for my baptism tomorrow this whole week, I am super excited for my public declaration of my new association, and declaring my covenant with Jesus, I was however nervous on testifying, not because I have nothing to testify about, believe me I have tons, I felt that I couldn’t write anything down, that the holy spirit would have have to lead me, this I still believe, but I felt like writing it down felt like a cheat sheet of sorts, I’ve watched your teachings and now know I can write down and meditate and pray on what I will say, it’s taken the nerves away slightly, I want to enjoy this and appreciate the privilege, not be worried about talking, thank you axx, for making these teachings publicly available, I now know that I am who God says I am, and that I’m ready for baptism
I personally thought that it was a excellent presentation on baptism and it certainly was appropriate and it covered all the necessary point with clarity as well as scripture and verse to support it, so overall great material to kick start one’s personal relationship with Christ.
The course was very informative providing all that a person requires about baptism. Enjoyed seeing where baptisms took place and the other places of interest. Before participating in this course I had already been baptised and know of the amazing experience of when you come up out of the water, you are different- a new creation Praise God
I have been a subject of the Lord Jesus for 35 years and was baptized back then. In the last few years I have had people asking me to baptize them. I decided to do this course because I wanted to make sure when it happens again that I will be fully prepared to help these brothers and sisters. This program did not so much teach me a new thing but it definitely put everything together in a simple and concise way easy to learn. I got a lot from it and I will promote this to people who ask me for baptism in the future. While doing this in a parent church environment is best there are a lot of people I interact with who want to experience Christ before committing to a big fellowship. This will help us (wife Regi and I) to help them and the goal is to help them make the move to Riverland Central our wonderful local church. Thank you.
