Baptism at a JW Convention
This excitement is characteristic at a Jehovah's Witness baptism for it legalizes one to be part of the Organization.
Q: On the basis of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, have you repented of your sins and dedicated yourself to Jehovah to do his will?
Q: Do you understand that your dedication and baptism identify you as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization?
The Watchtower January 15, 1989 p.13 What Prevents You From Getting Baptized?
Only if the individual answers in the affirmative and also understands that his dedication and baptism identify him as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in association with God's spirit-directed organization can he acceptably undergo water immersion.
