Russell Brand says he is "taking the plunge" this Sunday and will be baptized a Christian ๐
Actor, comedian, philosopher, and all-around-interesting dude Russell Brand has been publicly moving towards professing his faith in Christ for some time now.
I admire his desire to change for the better.
IMO ---- he is just attention whoring.
(he IS an attention whore)
Possible, or coming to Christ? God can sort it out
The talk-about-it to do-it ratio is too high.
If he really wanted to do it ------ he would just do it and let us find out about it later.
I almost did that when I was baptized in a river, by folks Iโve never met before. I was nervous and didnโt want to call family or friends. Except God had different plans. I felt the weight of my decision making and could feel I was wrong in doing so. So I made the first call, then the second. Next thing I know I had family and friends coming from everywhere. Itโs not just about the person. Getting baptized can spark something deep into another oneโs soul. This is something that should be seen, everyday by people. Our love for Christ should never be a private thing. Show the world how you feel, if you want to. Others want what we have. They sometime just need to see it. And feel that cool water on their feet.
Iโd walk hand and hand with anyone in this world, down to the river. And I mean anyone.
