We come to the baptism of Jesus and we hear why the Lord had to be baptized - -to fulfill all righteousness-. Our hope as sinners is found in God being well pleased with Jesus. We see that our salvation is properly Trinitarian as all three persons of the Godhead are present when the heavens were torn asunder at Christ's baptism.--For sinners like ourselves - who have no righteousness of our own, we see that our Lord Jesus came to fulfill the Law of God. That by our union with Christ by faith - we are recipients of the greatest gifts - justification, adoption, sanctification, glorification - through the person and work of Jesus Christ. Preached Sabbath AM from Luke 3-21-22 on Sabbath AM 04-25-21.--Outline--I. Jesus Christ pleases the Father.-II. In Jesus, you please the Father.
