There are three (3) ways to become a member of Antioch Missionary Baptist Church
Candidate for Baptism
The prospective member who has never accepted Christ and now will confess belief in Him. They must have a willingness to let Him rule their life and seek repentance for past sins. Baptism by emersion signals the death and burial of past sins through a cleansing process; the rising up out of the water, as a new person, a new life, a Christian life.
Any person coming from a non-Baptist church, (if that person has never been baptized by a licensed, ordained Baptist minister prior to membership in the non-Baptist church), is required to come as a candidate for baptism.
By Letter
The prospective member will bring or request a letter from the Baptist church he is leaving. The letter notifies the receiving church that the said person was a member (in good and regular standing), and desires a change of membership.
Christian Experience
The prospective member comes to us from another Baptist church with a statement – some reasons given (moved from area or city where his church was located); some choose to join with other members of the family, convenience, etc.
