Christ has made baptism the sign of entrance to His spiritual kingdom.
As Christians submit to the solemn rite of baptism, He registers the vow
that they make to be true to Him. This vow is their oath of allegiance.
I hereby enter that kingdom and declare my allegiance to YAHVAH,
the Creator and Eternal Father.
In going forward in this most solemn rite I make a public declaration
that I am dead to sin (Romans 6:2). I solemnly vow to remain dead to
sin, accepting the promise that it shall have no more dominion over me.
I have claimed the cleansing from my hereditary and cultivated traits of
evil. My mouth shall remain a sanctified mouth, my tongue a converted
tongue. I will speak of God's goodness and praise His holy name
(Romans 6:14). I have renounced the world and will no longer live in
pride and self-indulgence.
I accept Christ's vow to me: "I will never leave you nor forsake you"
(Hebrews 13:5). "I will preserve you from all evil" (Psalms 121:7).
"I will guide you into all truth and show you things to come"
(John 16:13). "Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto
Thee. For Thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not Thou
deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of
the living?" (Psalms 56:12, 13).
By being baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit I
become a member of the royal family. Henceforth I shall walk in newness
of life, loyal and obedient to God and His law. I will bear His sign of
obedience and creative power, the Sabbath of the fourth commandment
(Ezekiel 20:12) and His sign of humility and dependence for life, the
New Moon (Isaiah 66:22, 23; Psalm 81:3,4; Colossians 2:16). I surrender
to Him all that I have and pledge myself to serve Him; all of my
capabilities shall be given to the work of extending His kingdom. Those
who have been baptized can claim the help of the three great worthies of
heaven to keep them from falling, and to reveal through them a character
that is after the divine similitude.
By my vow of perpetual obedience to YAH's Word, I testify before
angels and men that I LIVE BY EVERY WORD THAT PROCEEDS OUT OF THE MOUTH
OF YAHVAH. (Matthew 4:4). "I know whom I have believed and am
persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed to Him
until that day." (2 Timothy 1:12).
