What does the Bible say about Jesus' baptism?

Answered in 10 sources

Jesus' baptism is affirmed as a pivotal moment where God the Father declared His approval, emphasizing the relationship between the Father and the Son.

The baptism of Jesus is notably significant as it marks the beginning of His earthly ministry. At this event, a voice from heaven declared, 'You are my beloved Son; with you, I am well pleased.' This proclamation by God the Father expresses an eternal love and complete acceptance of Christ's mission to save humanity. It signifies that Jesus is the Mediator of the new covenant, fully equipped and appointed to fulfill God's redemptive plan. The comfort found in this declaration extends to all believers, as they are seen by God through the righteousness of Christ, providing assurance of their acceptance in Him.
