I was 4 when I accepted Christ, and 7 when I rededicated my life to him.

I was baptized at about 14/15 (I have forgotten! ) but I grew up knowing abou God's love. I waited, on the advice of my parents (my dad is a pastor) until I felt I really knew what I was doing. It was great that he didn't pressure me at all about it.

However, it wasn't until I became a missionary that I really started to grow. The last 18 months or so I've really changed a lot, matured a lot, and now a know so much more about God, as I've learned to rely on Him more and more.

i was six, i rember it well, lol. Im not baptized yet...thinking baout it though, i dont believe in infant baptism, baptism is a sign that you HAVE accepted your savior ie, become a christian, not that your parents HOPE you will become one. The bible, to my knowlede, say NOTHING about infant baptism. But Im no theologian. Im not starting an aguement, lol. Im just barging in making my statement, and boy! If you can convince me otherwise, with a scripural base - MAN you're good! Love you all.

I was baptized as a baby, but I didn't accept Christ until 18.5. My parnets were church-goers, so I didn't look at my baptism as being worthy, especially after reading Romans 6. So, when I was 19, I was re-baptized as a believer, and then got baptized in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues (as in Acts 1 and 2). So that is me...

BTW, nobody else be as stupid as me and wait that long...
