Yes, John the Baptist baptized him in the Jordan river and the Holy Spirit descended on him like a dove and God said, "This is my son in whom I am well pleased."
John the Baptist was a very famous biblical figure and had a chapter in The Bible which he wrote. He was most known for being baptized by Jesus and then spreading the word of the Messiah.
there is a material left by Jesus in any museum and some paintings that shows when John the baptist was putting the sacred water in the forehead of Jesus actually Jesus was completely IMMERSED in the Jordan rive as was the practice see Mark 1:10 " and immediately on coming up out of the water he saw the Heavens being parted and like a dove the Spirit came down upon him" (pixilated)
When He was 30 years of age(as was supposed) and before He was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. Jesus was baptized by John in the river Jordan. Matthew 3:13-17 Mark 1:9-11 Luke 3:21-23 John 1:29-33
Baptism takes away our sins and it was prefigured through water because water cleanses. Thus, we are being washed by water. In order to fulfill those prefigurations, Jesus Christ had Himself baptized by St. John the Baptist in the Jordan River. Answer Jesus was not baptized of John because he needed to be, he was baptized as an example of what was required of all of us. Though He was perfect He set an example for all of us to follow..
The Sermon on the Mount was given early in His ministry immediately after being Baptized by John the Baptist - first year .
What is required for church membership in a Baptist Church? The answer is: First, you must be saved or born again (John 3:3). Being born again is receiving Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. Believing that Jesus died for your sins and that he was resurrected on the third day. Romans 10:9-10"That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." Second. you must be baptized. This is scriptural baptism which is by immersion. Or, to go under and not by sprinkling. This baptism is after you have made your confession of receiving Jesus as Lord of your life. There are a lot of individuals who have been baptized after they were born or within their first year of birth. This baptism is meaningless. A baby cannot confess Jesus as Lord. So, in most Baptist Churches, if one was baptized prior to their confession or being born again, you would have to be re-baptized. Baptism is an act that is done after one have received Jesus as Lord and not before. These are the two things that all must do to become a member of most Baptist churches in America.
There is no difference if you already believe that the Son of God is Jesus Christ.
Yes.
Yes to all three questions. Being baptized in a Baptist church only signifies that you are following Jesus in believers baptism. The Lutheran church is the one to make the final decision about membership in their congregation.
The gospels say that Jesus then saw the heavens open and the Spirit descend on him like a dove. In Mark's Gospel, only Jesus saw this, but in John's Gospel, John the Baptist also saw the heavens open and the Spirit descend on Jesus like a dove.
Mattthew 3 [13] Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.[14] But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?[15] And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.Answer2: Some six months after John begins preaching Jesus comes to him to be baptized. John tried to prevent him; Matthew 3:14-15 says "I am the one who needs to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me. Jesus replied to him: "Let it be this time for in that way it is suitale for us to carry out all that is righteous." Then he quit preventing him.
