TRINITY at the JORDAN RIVER?

 JOHN THE BAPTIST & JESUS 

WAS JESUS BAPTIZED TWICE?

"In those days John the Baptist appeared. He was preaching in the Judaean wilderness.

“Repent!” he was saying. “The kingdom of heaven is coming!”

John, you see, is the person spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, when he said,

The voice of someone shouting in the desert:  “Prepare the route that the Lord will take, straighten out his paths!”

John himself had clothing made from camel’s hair, and a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.  Jerusalem, all Judaea, and the whole area around the Jordan, were going off to him.  They were being baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.  

Matthew 3:1-7 NTFE  (New Testament for Everyone)

“As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.  His winnowing fork is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clear His threshing floor; and He will gather His wheat into the barn, but He will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

Then Jesus arrived from Galilee at the Jordan, coming to John to be baptized by him.  

But John tried to prevent Him, saying, “I have the need to be baptized by You, and yet You are coming to me?”  

But Jesus, answering, said to him, “Allow it at this time; for in this way it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he allowed Him. 

After He was baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and settling on Him,  and behold, a voice from the heavens said, “This is My beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”

Matthew 3:11-17  NASB  (New American Standard Bible)

Jesus is God the Son, and doesn't need to be born of the Spirit.  Jesus was spirit and the Word, before he became flesh.

Jesus being sinless doesn't need to repent or confess any sins. Jesus was showing others the need to repent, confess sins and to be bapized by John.

TRINITY AT JESUS BAPTISM

Jesus God the Son received the baptism of the Holy Spirit from God the Father and God the Holy Spirit equiping Him for his upcoming ministry; receiving DUNAMIS, like his disciple received in the book of Acts.
