I was baptized by immersion at the age of 8 for the remission of my sins. Then I recieved the gift of the Holy Ghost as my companion. I renew these covenants at church every Sunday.

Do you mean Baptizm of desire? The Catholic Church teaches that there can be 3 forms of baptizm. 1,baptizm with water -- while pouring water over the head or immersing a person in water they say I baptize you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, then 2. baptism by desire --- a person would like to be baptized but, for one reason or another does not have it done but there desire is strong enough that by the time they die they are considered righteous enough that a baptism did indeed take place 3. baptism by blood --- pure and plain martyrdom. They became a martyr for the Kingdom of God.

Baptism is the acceptance of Christ.\n\n1) Baptism by the Holy Spirit occurs when you have received Christ into your heart.\n\n2) Baptism by water is an outward expression that you trust Jesus Christ to redeem your soul after you die.

I am Apostolic myself.First of all don't let people judge you.You said you were new to going to church,thats the way they need to treat you.The Bible says in Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them,Repent,and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins,and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."So first off you need to repent and be baptized in Jesus name if you haven't done that already.It is necessary to have the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues.The Bible says we must be borned again of the water and of the spirit to enter into the kingdom of God.I know its hard to understand if you never been around it,but just because you don't understand it don't knock it ,because blaspeme against the Holy Ghost is the only sin Jesus want forgive.If you ever want to email questions concerning Apostolic your more than welcome to email me. roxie054@yahoo.com

Baptism by sprinkling is as valid as baptism by immersion. Archaelogists have uncovered early Christian baptism areas that would have been far too small to practice baptism by immersion - meaning that early Christians also practiced baptism by sprinkling.

i would say go confess your sins, get absolution, and get (re)baptized.

Being saved means that you accepted the love of Jesus into your heart, you believe he died for your sins and and died and rose again. it means that you are spiritually covered with the blood of Jesus. When God looks at you he doesn't see your sin he sees his son's blood. Being baptized is just an outward expression of an inward belief. you get baptized to show the world that you love Christ.

YES,  I would like to say welcome into the family.  I have been water baptized years ago, but I have been speaking in my heavenly language for a few years now.  It is the one true way you can talk to God and no one else knows what you are saying but Him.  It is your inter most thoughts and feelings about your wants, needs and desires.  Make it a point to do so everyday to stay connected to Him in a special way.

:}\nmandated in Scripture\nHeb 6:2-3 2  Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.\n3  And this will we do, if God permit.

Jesus Christ said Himself that if we LOVE Him, we WILL DO as He commands. If you don't want to go to church and be baptized, then you have to ask yourself, "do I really love Him?" \n He did not only command us to be baptized, but He got baptized Himself. So there: walk in His footsteps. How else can you live for Him than by obeying Him??

Im going to assume you mean WATER Baptism? \n\nWell, "baptism" means to be emersed and/or  saturated. Water Baptism is when we are emersed in water in Jesus Name in public demonstration of our faith and symbolically cleansing of sin. Spiritual Baptism is when we are emersed/saturated in the Holy Spirit. He  comes upon us and fills our spirits. This has no set time it happens, usually, when a person recieves Christ, a pastor or fellow Christian will pray for the Spirit to come and fill the person, but it can happen then or later but it DOES happen :)

I was invited a mate's baptism and the testimonies I heard there made me think,'These people really think they actually know Jesus.' Something about the peace they had made me cry. When the pastor brought a message about people of the world seeking answers through drink, drugs, sex and anti-depressants it struck a nerve because I was on anti-depressants at the time. He asked if anyone who would like to be blessed by Jesus would raise their hand and when I did I was instantly baptised in the Holy Spirit. In the course of 2 hours or so I went from being a sceptic to being a child of God......

Some are baptized as infants, others as young adults when they become church members.  You could even be baptized when you're very old.
