To become part of the body of Christ do you have to be baptised at a Church of Christ?
This is the story of Philip and the man from Ethiopia. They were in a desert place (as in nothing around publicly) They both went down into the water. Also in the book of Acts chapter 2 verse 41 you can read of those who were baptized and added to them. Also In Acts chapter 2 verse 47 you can read that the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.
Answer:No; you don't have to be baptized "at a church" at all to become part of the body of Christ. As long as its according to Scripture in word and form, you can be baptized anywhere there's enough water to be immersed in (Acts 8:38, 39). There's no need for witnesses; just someone to baptize you, which can be any Christian man who knows what to say and do.
