Bob SchultzBob Schultz, April 21, 2013
Part of the Gospel of Mark series, preached at a Sunday Morning service

This morning we will endeavor to explain the reason why Jesus was baptized so that we would grow in our Christology and Soteriology. May we grasp the significance of Jesus’ baptism so that we would grow in our understanding of Him and our understanding of salvation.

Mark 1:9–11 (Listen)

In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. 11 And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”

(ESV)
