1 Peter 3:18-22 - Christian Baptism: A Comfort and Assurance in the Day of Suffering
The Christian’s baptism then is a source of great comfort. It is not a comfort because it is seen as some saving ritual. Baptism is a comfort because it reminds us that we are united with Jesus in his death, his resurrection and his reign in glory. We can be certain that we will be blessed when we suffer for righteousness’ sake, because as believers our destiny is united with Jesus Christ. If Jesus has the victory over evil spirits, then he certainly will have the victory over those who persecute us now.

The Local Church: Why You Ought to be a Formal and Active Member of a Local Church (Part I)
Membership is a bond with a body of believers. Are you bound to them? Are you serving them? Are you walking with them? The church is the bride of Christ. You cannot love him and not love her. Can you, with an honest heart, sing and say: “I love Thy Church, O God� And will you commit to doing all that love entails?
