Baptism » Sanctioned by Christ's submission to it
Now, when all the people were baptized, and Jesus was baptized and praying,
Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized by him: but John refused Him, saying, I have need to be baptized by thee, and comest thou to me? And Jesus answering said unto him, Permit it now; for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness.
