Discuss Matthew 3 Page 12

@Alex I was informed that Christ and God were on in the same so if they are the same how are they two different beings. I'm confused I specifically asked are god and Jesus one in the same and I was told yes now you are saying they are different. This is what I mean the inconsistences and the lack of definitive text.

is different from others because it doesn't say that in the verse. just want people to be honest is it just something you believe in your faith or is it somewhere else in the text of the bible that ACTUALLY states his baptism was different and that it wasn't to remiss his sins.

like me telling you something the Easter bunny said and I mean no disrespect in what i'm saying and if I'm offending anybody I apologize. I'm just simply trying to understand and telling me something that somebody said or not said what they "meant" isn't going to bode well. I'm simply asking WITHOUT telling what somebody "meant" that I don't believe I asking where does it say his baptism

I love how NOBODY answered my question all you guys did was quote the bible. This is problem with discussing religion with people of faith all you guys do is quote, y 'all need to learn how to talk to people who don't believe what you guys do. You say these thing that you read from the bible and quote things from people for who me and many others do not believe in so to put it simple that would be

The answer is contained in that verse: "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

Simply put, it pleased the Father for Him to be baptized.

Because Jesus was born in the flesh and the day of his baptism God spoke this is my beloved son his flesh was buried and rose in the Spirit of God (reunited); it was not until he came up out of the water that God spoke. He is our example and baptism is in all obedience signifying death of the flesh, washed in the water, in the name of the Father, Son who was born in the flesh, and Holy Spirit.

IF ye humbled thy hardened heart, confessing thy sins, repenting of all thy wickedness (with a broken heart and contrite spirit;) ye would not be asking such things. IF ye are not antichrist, ye shall confess (in newness of Spirit,) that Jesus Christ [is] come in the flesh [and] believe in thine heart that GOD has raised him again from the dead, being born again, reconciled to GOD in Christ Jesus.

J the father neva died it was his son that died thus they 2 distinct beings but he was also the sacrifical DOVE that had to be washed by running water and killed his blood sprinkled on the living bird which is the church thats y the DOVE descened on Christ. Doves are lovers like Christ and the Church, In SONG the 2 lovers are Christ and the Church but they refer to each OTHER AS HAVING DOVES EYES.

IF Jesus is God and God is Jesus why did he need to be baptized at all ? The purpose of baptism is for the remission of sin (correct me if I'm wrong) then why would Jesus need to be baptized? And if your response is he had to lead by example where in the bible does it say that his baptism is different from others?

I really believe that Jesus forgives and thru him only you can get to ALMIGHTY GOD.

Hi Christine, you asked..."Jesus is born then he is a man. What happened as he grew? Why do we baptize babies now? Did he make his holy communion?" Not much is know of Jesus' childhood, no one was there to 'record it write it down'. A good movie that shows a little is "Jesus of Nazareth"...Are you a Catholic? I was raised Catholic...it would be my guess that NO, Jesus didn't make Holy Communion

Mathew 3: 11-12

11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

Baptize with water he did not understand. That means to be baptized in the people. He is doing both for he expects them to confess their sins. Learning about the evil people do. Now he is

Jehovah God acknowledged the relationship that he had with Jesus. He clearly stated that this was his son and he approved of him even if others did not.

I believe with all my heart that Jesus is the only way to salvation, For He said ,,, No one sees the Father except through me! And its only through Jesus that you can be saved!

God is incapable of lying. Numbers 23:19

John the Baptist preached about Jesus coming upon earth, for only by Him this world might be saved and shall receive the kingdom of Heaven. In the moment that John spoke, Jesus was not yet crucified, and the blood of the everlasting covenant has not yet been brought. But if we look at Luke 17:20-21, it is clear that the kingdom of Heaven may dwell in us. How? Rev 3:20

Heaven,was unattainable You Could not Touch it. Now that The Son of God was Born in Bethlehem about 4-7 AD, and Paid for Your Sin, The Kingdom is within Reach, Except a Man be Born-again He cannot See The Kingdom of God( John 3:3) First Time The Word was Here in The Flesh, Jesus Will be Back Again After The Rapture and Place His Feet on Earth) The Lost will be in The Lake of Fire(Revelation20:15

They asked Jesus b/f he ascended will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel and he replied it is not for you to know the times and seasons the Father has put in his own power but you will receive power after the H.G. has come upon you SO THE KINGDOM DIDN'T COME AT THAT TIME REV 12 V1O IMPLIES THE KINGDOM WILL COME WHEN THE WOMAN GIVES BIRTH THUS WE WILL RECEIVE THE KINGDOM AS A LIL CHILD

Matthew 3:2 What does the kingdom of heaven is at hand mean to you? Do you think Jesus
lied when he said, "The kingdom of heaven is at hand".? I believe He's already come, in 70 AD. There are many versus's that would support my theory. I only read the Bible, so my knowledge comes from God alone.

as you see he his saying repent from your own thoughts, your own ways and follow God's divine way, sin is the devil device. Repentances means to repent with all your heart to God, be baptized in the Holy Spirit, and to be purged from your sinful ways, be made new with the spirit, remember you cant serve 2 gods but only 1, I choose our Father who art in Heaven, Amen! be baptized, be cleansed!

verse 11; if you are baptized in the Holy Spirit and fire it is a privilege an adventure you have been giving dunamis power to fulfill the life of a disciple victoriously. you understand that you are a son. yet our ability to chose is not taken away

Anti-NWO; You say it quite accurately! With the advent of Rabbinic Judaism about 150 years (?) before; by the time John the Baptist began preaching and announcing the coming of the Saviour; it was a Country filled with Synagogues, zealots and sects; run by an extremely rich and powerful elite class, who were entrenched in a self-made system completely alienated and hostile to the Spirit of Christ.

As usual, the Synagogue of Satan is insane with jealousy and fear that John will destroy their power over the masses. By this time the Tora is a matter of convenience; the Satanic oral Babylonian Talmud is what is being preached in the Synagogues. John is well aware of their Satanic practice that is destroying the people. Clearly, he is helping to start our Saviors ministry and then step aside.

Verse 4: This shows that John the Baptist lived a simple life. His clothing was simple and so was the food that he ate.

Bob:We Do not all have The Spirit within us. We only receive The Spirit when we receive Salvation then we are Baptized with The Holy Ghost: Mark 1:8, Matthew 3:11

matthew 4 12-17 17 from that time jesus began to preach. the same time that john was cast into prison

Stuart, Jesus said those were the two GREATEST commandments on which hung all the law and the prophets. He gave us OTHER commandments in the gospel, including the great commission to go into all the world and preach the gospel, healing and doing deliverance in His name. We are also to forgive as He forgave us if we are to be forgiven, and love one another as He loved us.

The whole New Testament is true and inspired by God. Paris Jesus our Lord and Saviour. Jesus summed up all the commandments saying there are only 2 commandments. Love God with all your heart and soul and love your neighbor as you love God or as you love yourself.

"But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:" Rabbinic Judaism of Jesus' day was a man-made system carefully contrived to enslave its adherents to hypocrisy, and completely shut them out from the knowledge of God in Christ.
