1 | Did John really baptise Jesus?? | Bible general Archive 4 | lightedsteps | 223511 | ||
Hi cecilk welcome to the forum First you need to understand, the bible is "ALL" truth, if any part of the bible is not truth, then the whole bible is useless to us, it then can not be trusted at all. So YES John did baptize Jesus as depicted in the Bible. I think your question is more on the order of "WHY". Even though Jesus was without sin, when He was baptized by John, could it have been for the original sin of Adam that is upon the flesh of all men? Being 100 percent Man, and 100 percent God, Jesus had to have had the sin of Adam dwelling in his flesh, because he was born of a woman. Job 15:14 What is man, that he should be clean? and he which is born of a woman, that he should be righteous? Job 25:4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman? Jesus had to have sin dwelling in His flesh, otherwise He could not have been tempted as we are, because the temptation would have been of a perfect deity. Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. That part of Jesus that was truly flesh, had to be purged of the sin of Adam, in order for it to be said, He was without spot or blemish. Heb 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? 1Pe 1:19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: It was the will of God that He (Jesus) be baptized, to fulfill all righteousness. Joh 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work. Joh 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. Mat 3:15 And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. Grace be unto you lightedsteps |

With all due respect, I strongly disagree that Jesus' human side needed repentance. He was the perfect sinless God-man. Obviously His deity was sinless, but so was His humanity since He didn't have a human father. That leads me to the conclusion that our sin nature is passed on by the father not the mother. | ||||||
