Matthew: The Baptism Of Jesus Christ

<p>If baptism is for SINNERS, then why was JESUS baptized?<br> <br> In Matthew 3, Jesus asked John to baptize him. That blew John's mind. And so, John told Him that it was the other way around - that Christ needed to baptize him! John knew that Jesus had no sins that He needed to repent of, and no need to be 'washed clean.'<br> <br> So why did Jesus insist on being baptized? That will be today's focus.<br> <br> Questions That We'll Answer:<br> A) What sort of baptism was John doing by the Jordan River?<br> B) Were John's baptism the same as our modern, church age baptisms?<br> B) Why did Jesus say His baptism would 'fulfill all righteousness?' </p> <p><br></p> <p>Speaker: Rev.
