    Jesus’ baptism was a transition from the tranquil world of his father’s carpenter shop into his Father’s world of kingdom building.

    My parents owned a small neighborhood grocery. Our house was located directly behind the store. As a child my world revolved around that store. People who bought their groceries there weren’t just customers, they were friends. The man who operated a road grader always stopped to drink a coke ...read more

    Jesus Is Baptised

    This Jesus, who lowers himself to the depth of us failed human beings, is the Beloved Son of the Living God. His baptism, unnecessary as it was in terms of repentance from sin, nevertheless shows us the importance of submitting to God’s law, God’s will f

    I imagine many of you may be unaware that today is the day the church traditionally remembers the baptism of Jesus. So how appropriate that today we should be baptising Caleb. As we just read, Jesus too was baptised, not as a baby, but as an adult, as a sign that he was about to begin his work for ...read more

    Why do churches practise Baptism? From where does it come?

    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

    The Bible says that the Spirit of God is the Person who produces peace and patience and power in our lives. If I want more peace, more patience and more power, then I must want an ongoing influence of God’s Spirit in my life.

    This past week, my patience and peace were being tested. Maryanne and I had gone to Texas for the weekend to a pastors and wives meeting. We had scheduled a non-stop flight from Dallas to Cleveland that would get us home at 6:00 on Tuesday afternoon. We had a great trip but we were ready to be ...read more

    A Tale Of The Unexpected !

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Feb 10, 2006

     | 4,079 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
