The Voice, the Water, and the Spirit

Baptism is the foundational sacrament. It begins our life with Christ. It defines us as followers of the Christ. But it is so much more. The baptism of Jesus is a paradigm for our baptism and our life as Christians. When we were baptized, the Father spoke to us as his children and we received his Spirit.

apostolic-times.com continues with context for the season's readings. In Acts 11, St Paul baptized the centurion Cornelius. In Matthew 3, John baptized Jesus in the Jordan thus beginning the Lord's ministry.
