Read Mark 1:4-11
4 So
John appeared in the desert, baptizing and preaching.b “Turn away from
your sins and be baptized,” he told the people, “and God will forgive your
sins.” 5Many people from the province of Judea and the city of
Jerusalem went out to hear John. They confessed their sins, and he baptized
them in the River Jordan.
6 John
wore clothes made of camel’s hair, with a leather belt round his waist, and his
food was locusts and wild honey. 7He announced to the people, “The
man who will come after me is much greater than I am. I am not good enough even
to bend down and untie his sandals. 8I baptize you with water, but
he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9 Not
long afterwards Jesus came from Nazareth in the province of Galilee, and was
baptized by John in the Jordan. 10As soon as Jesus came up out of
the water, he saw heaven opening and the Spirit coming down on him like a dove.
11And
a voice came from heaven, “You are my own dear Son. I am pleased with you.”
Think
"But he will baptize you
with the Holy Spirit."
