What is Baptism of the Lord?
On the Sunday after Epiphany many churches remember Jesus' baptism by John in the Jordan, when the Spirit descended like a dove and the Father said, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” It is a natural day to remember our own baptism and calling.
Scripture for Baptism of the Lord: Matthew 3:13-17
13Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him. 14But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me? 15And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him. 16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
