Before sharing the photo of his baptism, the singer posted a photo of his good friend and pastor Judah Smith. Smith performed the baptism in the lake as Justin and Hailey, dressed in swimming attire, listened to the pastor before they were immersed in the water.

Bieber, who was filled with gratitude for his family and friends who were present for the occasion, also received love from others online.

One of Bieber's other spiritual mentors, pastor Carl Lentz commented on the baptism photos, "Amazing. love you.” The minister’s wife, Laura Lentz, likewise wrote, “Beautiful.”

E! host and professing Christian Jason Kennedy revealed that he was present during the occasion, commenting, “One of the top moments of my life doing this with you.”

Pastor Smith commented, “CHILLS STILL.”

Bieber was first baptized in 2014, according to Hillsong New York Pastor Lentz, who detailed the baptism to Oprah. He described the day of the baptism and hyperbolically said Bieber was being followed by "a million paparazzi people." 

Lentz said they tried four different locations before finally calling his friend, NBA star Tyson Chandler, at 3 a.m. and asking if they could use his pool. The pool was unavailable but Chandler offered his bathtub and since the 7-foot-tall athlete had a large enough tub, Lentz and Smith baptized Bieber there.
