TEN COMMANDS OF JESUS
(A Jesus Disciple Resource)

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” – Jesus
John 14:15
Commandment #2:  BE BAPTIZED

Remember:
  • Repent of any sin and keep following Jesus.

Read: Matthew 28:19

Discuss:
  • What is the first thing Jesus commands us to do with all new believers? (see also Mark 16:15–16)
  • How does water baptism (submerging someone in water and lifting them back out of the water) demonstrate that Jesus’ death, burial and resurrection was for them? (see Romans 6:4)
  • How does being baptized demonstrate a person’s faith in, and obedience to, Jesus?
  • How does Jesus assure that new believers understand that they’ve come into relationship with all three Persons of the one true God; the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit?
  • Where and how can we baptize people?

Respond:
  • What do I need to do this week to obey this command?
  • Who will I teach Jesus’ commandments to this week?

Obey:
  • Be baptized in water and baptize others who will follow Jesus.
