A video of a kid who couldn’t wait any longer and decided to baptize himself out of excitement is trending on social media.
The Bible speaks of a child-like faith in God, and Jesus emphasized this kind of faith when He said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for of such is the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it” (Mark 10:14-15).
On Sunday, when 6-year-old Jordan Warrick was waiting his turn to be baptized at the West End Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky, he decided to take the plunge after the pastor was taking longer than Jordan could handle.
Jordan went ahead and baptized himself as his parents, pastor, and the entire congregation watched on in delight. The video has gone absolutely viral on Facebook, gaining hundreds of thousands of shares and millions of views in just one day.
This full immersion powerfully symbolizes the forgiveness of sins and new life through faith in Christ, as we go under and rise again from the water.
