I would like to add one more comment. Jesus Christ was baptized himself by John the Baptist. The reason why John did not call out the name, because he had the name in his hands. Jesus Christ is our greatest example. Luke 3 21 Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, the heaven was opened, Mark 1 9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan . Jesus being God manifested in the flesh, not only was he born from the womb of Mary, but when it was time to be our example of being baptized he did this also. This was to show us that baptism is what he meant. Peter clarified what he meant further on the Day of Pentecost.
