JWs....How does it make you feel when your child or bible study gets baptised?

Do you feel like YOU contributed to their decision?


Do you feel proud of them?


Is that a goal that you set for them?





What if they decide NOT to get baptised....where do you go from there?

I asked my bible teacher how she felt when I got baptized and she said that she felt happy that i dedicated my life to Jehovah and that she had a part on it.


And when i was inactive she was always encouraging me to come back.
Reply:I feel overjoyed when anyone gets baptised even if I do not know them. If someone chooses not to get baptised it is between them and God. I pray for them. I do tell them what the bible says about it and that Jesus commanded us to do it but then I let them decide when they are ready. So if they are not ready just pray for them and love them. You do not lose your salvation over it. Our goal should be Matthew 28:19-20 Go therefore into all nations baptizing them in the name of the Father , Son and Holy Spirit. Teach them all that God has commanded and He will be with you until the end of the age. We should be out there sharing the gospel with everyone that is the great commission. My goal is for people to get saved and then let God's word teach them what to do.
