AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 1:33 "I did not recognize Him [as the Messiah], but He who sent me to baptize in water said to me, 'He upon whom you see the Spirit descend and remain, this One is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.' |
Bible Question: how did John the Baptist know about baptism, are here earlier references to it, as Noah and the flood, or is it a gimme that it was a revelation to John from God? He was doing baptisms prior to Jesus approaching him, even tho John was doinfg it to reveal Jesus to the Isrealites. |
Bible Answer: Hello escrit, Scripture reveals little detail of how John the Baptist knew about baptism other than what is contained in 1:33, "...but He who sent me to baptize in water said to me..." It was somehow revealed to him by God. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
