Baptizing why blessed or possessed
Some Pharisees were also sent. They asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Messiah or Elijah or the Prophet?” John answered them, “I baptize with water; but there is one among you whom you do not recognize, the one who is coming after me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to untie.” This happened in Bethany across the Jordan, where John was baptizing. John 1:24-28
Blessed the man who sets His security in the LORD, who turns not to the arrogant or to those who stray after falsehood. Psalm 40:5
Just as it is appointed that human beings die once, and after this the judgment, so also Christ, offered once to take away the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to take away sin but to bring Salvation to those who eagerly await Him. Hebrews 9:27-28
John 1:24-28, Psalm 40 & Hebrews 9:27-28
Spending time with John reflects Christ receiving what the baptizing John knew of his barely reported cousin as the Messiah he told would come while knowing many would reject even in the midst of miracles galore a man whose sins of humanity He did bore. Others would ask who John was specifically the Pharisee whose life was set apart from others to live everything Jewish believing as Christ in the Resurrection of the Dead. What others failed to recognize became the Security of Salvation giving civilization a resting peace Eternal leaving falsehoods behind in the stray alleys of perpetual darkness.
There is nothing arrogant here where Jesus provides passion, persistence and peace by the practice, prayer and proclamation of living the New Covenant of Love, Faith and Hope of Charity. God expects you to live in Him as He lives in you providing a constant prayer discussion where “Thank You Lord” is said as often as the confession of sin by stating “I’m sorry Lord” fundamentally by the words God and every other person wants to hear “I love you Lord” giving where He says the exampled Rescue life lives. Amen.
