Reason 14: Jesus’ followers practiced communion and baptism

God’s people welcomed the sacraments of baptism and communion into their worship of Jesus as God. In communion, the early Christians remembered Jesus’ death in their place for their sins. In baptism they remembered Jesus’ resurrection in their place for their salvation and anticipated their personal future resurrection. These ancient practices have continued for thousands of years wherever the Church has existed.
