"Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, 'See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?' Then Philip said, 'If you believe with all your heart, you may.' And he answered and said, 'I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.' So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him." (Acts 8:36-38)

A man who was mute had attended services for a long time. After one of the sermons, as the invitation was being sung, he came forward and set on the front pew with an open Bible in his hand. The preacher, knowing that the man was unable to state his desire, was very perplexed as to what to do. After the song was finished, the dumb man approached the preacher and pointed to the verse which says, "See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?" The preacher simply pointed to the next verse, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." The man quickly pointed to the next verse, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." The preacher then repeated the things in the verses to the congregation, and they took the man and baptized him into Christ.

Have you been baptized into Christ as was the Ethiopian eunuch, and the man who was mute?
