Choir Anthem presented after the scripture and sermon “Down to the River to Pray" ~ arr. David Haas .......... Luke 3:15-17, 21-22 (NRSV) 15 As the people were filled with expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Messiah, 16 John answered all of them by saying, ‘I baptize you with water; but one who is more powerful than I is coming; I am not worthy to untie the thong of his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing-fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing-floor and to gather the wheat into his granary; but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.’ 21 Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heaven was opened, 22 and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven, ‘You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.’

Fire can be productive or destructive. Fire has many good uses. Uncontained fire can be destructive. Contained fire is a great thing. A chimney is built to hold fire. Believers are built to hold the Fire of the Holy Spirit.

In Jesus' baptism, his old life died, and a new life began...the same happens for us in baptism, whether immediately or after years. Our lives can begin again many times, saying goodbye to the ghosts of the past.

Baptism of Jesus

Pastor Phil preaches on "The Great Exchange" and asks, if Jesus was God, why did he need to be baptized? He didn't need to be baptized to save Himself, but to save us all.
