Immersion Truth


The Truth About Immersion (Baptism): Lies Exposed, Truth Revealed

In a world overflowing with deception, few topics have been twisted and misunderstood like baptism. For many, it has become a ritual—a religious checkbox—rather than what Scripture truly teaches. But the Word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH) brings clarity, cutting through centuries of confusion and false doctrine.

What Is Baptism Really About?

Baptism is not salvation itself—it is a symbol of repentance and obedience. It is an outward sign of an inward commitment to walk in truth and turn from the ways of the world. True baptism isn’t found in church rituals or emotional experiences—it’s found in the renewal of the heart by the Ruach (Breath) of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH), in harmony with His commanded times and days.

Yahusha told Nicodemus plainly:
Yahuchanan (John) 3:5 “Unless one is born of water and of the Ruach, he cannot enter the kingdom of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH).”

This is not about dipping in physical water—it’s about being reborn from above, transformed by the Ruach (Breath) of the Most High, and walking in the commanded order of His days.

Lies Exposed

  • Infant Baptism: Nowhere in Scripture. Repentance requires understanding, which infants do not have.
  • Sprinkling or Pouring Water: Pagan in origin, adopted by Rome.
  • Trinitarian Formula (Father, Son, Holy Spirit): Added later through false doctrine. The apostles baptized only in the Name of Yahusha.
  • Baptism Equals Salvation: Water doesn’t save; obedience and belief do.
  • Self-Baptism or Emotional Ceremonies: Never found in the text. Baptism follows repentance and acknowledgment of the truth, observed in obedience to the commanded times of YaHU’aH.

Truths Restored

True Immersion (Baptism) Is an Act of Repentance: It follows belief, not the other way around, and must align with the commanded times of obedience.
The Breath (Ruach) Gives Life: Without the Ruach, no one can walk in righteousness or truth.
The Example of Yahusha: He was immersed by Yahuhanan (John) in obedience, not for repentance, but to fulfill the will and order of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH). (MatithYAHU (Matthew) 3:13–17)
The Apostles’ Pattern: They immersed in Yahusha’s Name and laid hands for the Ruach to come upon believers. (Acts 2:38)

The Power of the Ruach

Water washes the body—but the Ruach cleanses the heart. It is Ruach ha’Qodash that brings new life, conviction, and strength to endure in righteousness. Without it, religion becomes ritual; with it, life becomes obedience empowered by the divine Breath and aligned with the commanded days of YaHU’aH.

Final Call

This generation must return to the truth. Immersion is not a ritual—it’s a declaration:
“I reject the lies of this world. I choose the covenant of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YaHU’aH).”

Do not be deceived by tradition or emotion. Be reborn from above. Walk in truth. Live in obedience according to the commanded days of YaHU’aH
