Tony Diesel Baptism @ First Baptist Church of Lake St. Louis

The best way to describe this video is "broken man". When the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached and the Holy Spirit moves it's an absolute miracle the work that is done. How can a man go from loving his sin, completely blind and callous to the things of God... to falling on his face, crying out to God for mercy because for the first time in his life he has seen his sin in truth... crimes against a holy God! (Rev 21:8) This does not happen because he one day decided to step out of the line going to hell and step into the line going to heaven. It happened because the Almighty Creator of the universe supernaturally changed his heart and made him a new creature! (2 Cor 5:17) He has been regenerated (Titus 3:5), justified (Rom 3:23-24) and is now being sanctified. All because he is a good person? NO! Because God is love and merciful and because this act of love and mercy on Tony was in accordance with His good will and pleasure. Tony repented of his sin and put his trust in Jesus Christ!

Soli Deo Gloria,
