    A Tale Of The Unexpected !

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Feb 10, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 4,257 views

    John was shocked when the sinless Jesus asked to be baptised. Jesus identifies with us in his baptism. We identify with him when we are baptised and we too can receive God’s Spirit! Truly this is a tale of the unexpected.

    The Baptism of Jesus must surely qualify as a ‘Tale of the Unexpected’! Have you ever been somewhere or seen something which was the exact opposite of what you were expecting? Have you ever been waiting expectantly for an event, only for the event itself to come as a total surprise or even a big ...read more

    Why was Jesus baptized? Granted, Jesus said it was to "fulfill" all righteousness"... but what does that mean?

    OPEN: A woman once took her 4-year-old daughter to a baptismal service at her church. Later that night, her daughter took all of her dolls into the bathtub with her and held her own “baptism.” As she dunked each doll under the water, she repeated, “Now I baptize you in the name of the Father, the ...read more

    Sometimes we aren’t sure if “now” is the right time for things. At the Jordan River, about 30 years after Jesus was born, now was the time. Time for what? It’s time for Jesus to be baptized.

For the Father to state a line of acceptance (16-17) Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, “When it’s the right fit, it’s the right fit. You know it.

    When we are baptized with the water we are also baptized with the Holy Spirit and, as a result, receive a full measure of the same grace and love Jesus received when He showed us the way with His baptism.

    Watergrave Do any of you remember your baptism? I remember mine. You see, I can remember mine because I was 17 at the time. I was baptized and brought into membership in a Baptist church. Now, it wasn’t because I was a Baptist that I was older when I had this experience of ...read more

    Jesus baptism helped him fulfill all righteousness. Likewise, our baptism helps us to fulfill all righteousness, that is, to become the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ.

He was the very personification of Elijah in his garment of coarse camel hair and leather belt. This is how Elijah was identified by King Ahaziah in II Kings ...read more
