The Baptism of Jesus
The Baptism of Jesus
Matthew 3:13-17 New International Version (NIV)
13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.14 But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”
15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented.
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”
Conclusion
God says “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.” it proves that God's promise is never fail because God Promise on Matthew 1:21 "he will save his people from their sins." and now it is partially fulfilled for Jesus has been baptized by the spirit. God declares it that many man hears the message from even. It is the starting point of Jesus journey of saving his people until his last breath on the cross and when the time come when Jesus crucified it is the fulfillment of the promise and biggest love of the father to us that can express.
