Re: Pressured to be Baptized
How is baptism treated in your family's church? It's specific meaning changes greatly depending on denomination and community. To some it's a simple initiation, merely a step on the way to Salvation. A path in which the only truly meaningful step is the last, or rather it is the path itself that is important not any of the steps therein.
To others it is a deeply spiritual and meaningful commitment to the Lord and/or church, or somewhere in between those two views.
This is coming from someone who has actually performed baptisms btw.
