Why Did Jesus Get Baptized? – 10 December 2023

Jesus got baptized, and so should we. But His baptism (because He’s Jesus!) is bound to be at least a little bit different than ours. Why did Jesus get baptized?

The main reason we immerse is because every baptism described in the New Testament seems to be by immersion, including Jesus. And even more importantly, we do immersion because of how it pictures death and resurrection.
