 Ukubhaptizwa kubonisa wonke umntu ukuba uye wazinikela. Kubonisa abanye ukuba awusaphileli ukwenza izinto ozifunayo kodwa wenza izinto ezifunwa nguYehova.—Mateyu 16:24.

 Khawucinge ngoku: Kutheni ubomi bakho buza kuba bhetele xa uzinikele kuYehova? Funda uIsaya 48:17, 18 namaHebhere 11:6.

 Sekunjalo ufanele ubhaptizwe kuba umthanda uYehova ibe unombulelo ngokuba ngumhlobo wakhe. Ufanele uzive njengoMdumisi owabhala wathi: “Ndiza kumbuyekeza ngantoni uYehova ngazo zonke izinto ezintle andenzele zona?. . . Ndibize egameni likaYehova. Ndiza kuzenza izinto endizifunge kuYehova.”—INdumiso 116: 12-14.
