Don Blackwell, executive director of the Gospel Broadcasting Network and elder for the Cookeville church of Christ in Cookeville, Tennessee, came to Sebring, Florida, to preach a gospel meeting centered around the theme, "Questions that Need to be Answered." On Wednesday evening, February 21, 2024, he asked the sixth of six of those questions to the Sebring Parkway church of Christ entitled, "Do I Need to be Rebaptized?"

Thanks, Don (if I may). I am Clint Little. I was baptized into Christ in 1986 in Atlant, GA. Though I have been a christian for many years, I learned some useful things here

It does matter who baptizes you

[@marcimarceau357]

Lately, I have heard Christian‘s say that if someone believes the right reasons for being baptized, they can be baptized in a denominational religion such as the Baptist, Catholics, etc. I don’t believe that what say you brother Blackwell?
Thank you

The Church was in the mind of God before the foundation of the world Revelation 13 vs 8 Ephesians 3 vs 1-11 that's why Hebrews 12 vs 22-23 only the church of the first born names are written in heaven. How can you be baptized right in a man made church which the Bible has no record of Matthew 15 vs 7-9 in vain they do worship me teaching for doctrine the commandments of men. Look at Acts 19 vs 1-5 they only knew Johns baptism they had to be baptized in the name of Jesus

@@davidwyke7060 totally agree with you brother it frightens me that the Church of Christ brothers and sisters are believing teachings that are not found in God‘s word. We need to emphasize the need for study. Otherwise they’re taken easily.

May I ask a clarifying question? Are you asking if a person is baptized in the building in which a denominational body meets or are you asking if a person was previously baptized according to a denominational creed or confession?

Do you need to be rebaptized? The Holy Bible is the Authority, the answer is there.
Ephesians 4:5 says "One Baptism", so the answer would be no, otherwise you're then adding to God's Word, or rebelling.
