About this sermon
Jesus’ baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist is a well-known scene. But why was it necessary for Jesus, who was God in the flesh, to be baptized in the first place? And why did the Spirit of God then send Jesus into the wilderness for forty days to be tempted by Satan? Alistair Begg reminds us that Christ persistently identified with sinners, even enduring inconceivable temptations at the hand of Satan. Through it all, Christ satisfied His Father and ultimately procured forgiveness for lost men and women.
