    I have not been baptized yet. I am 56 years old I don't want to get baptized until I know everything about it and what I do afterwards I want to make sure that everything I post to do is done. I want to make sure that I get to see my daughter again so can you tell me what I need to do before when I get baptized what is getting baptized what does it do I need to know everything about it and what I do afterwards after I get baptized thank you and my other commit was about the year 2026 my daughter that had passed away to me in a dream that I would see her in the year 2026 what does this mean I went to church when I was a child Baptist Church the preacher there the only thing I could understand is he screamed a lot I did understand some things I understand the ten commandments and other stuff but I still want to learn more about Jesus and other things just bear with me I might have some stupid questions to ask but send things I do not understand and if you can guide me to a place where I can read more about Jesus that has better understanding than some man screaming about this and that and I just didn't make sense only thing I could hear was him screaming his face turning red okay so if there's something online where I can study more about Jesus and why things are the way they are then please send that information to me thank you

    Pamela it's good to hear from you . Best advice has already been given by T Levi's I see . Read your Bible every day , even if you can only manage one verse that's ok . Start talking to God . You can do that in a formal way in prayer , start with Dear Heavenly Father or something similar and end your prayer with , through the name of Jesus Christ or something similar . You can also talk to him in your head and heart as you go about your day . Don't be afraid to say what you think and feel . Be honest and open with Him , He already knows everything about you but it's very therapeutic for you to pour out your heart to your Creator . I would say read this site often , however there are many conflicting views on here so it's best for you to get very comfortable with your Bible before you take any notice of us squabbling children . Do you know anyone who does go to church ? Maybe ask them what their church is like ? Baby steps Pamela , God knows you and He will bring you to Him at the pace that's right for you and Him . Never forget to thank Him for all your blessings .

    You're welcome to fellowship with us here as you learn about Jesus.

    I would start with reading the books of Luke 1, through to the end. Then Mark 1, through to the end.

    James 1:5, says to ask for wisdom & He will give it to us.

    Hopefully these are helpful
