The Baptism of Jesus
Scott Risley
Mark 1:9-11
Before Jesus begins his long-awaited public ministry he travels to the Jordan River to be baptized by John the Baptist. What follows is a fascinating interaction of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Here we learn about the anointing of the Holy Spirit, the Father's delight in the Son, and their implications for the privileges believers enjoy in Christ under the New Covenant.
