Those who received the baptism of John did indeed seek the baptism of Christ….No baptism was necessary for Christ, but he freely received the baptism of a servant (John) to draw us towards his baptism. St Augustine of Hippo (354-430) Reader 1 Reader 2 Welcomers Noelle Forte-Passey Marie Johnson John, who baptized, stood by, and behold, the Holy Spirit descended, but “as a dove.” Descended for what reason? Not that the Lord Jesus himself might seem to be in need of the mystery of sanctification, but that he himself might sanctify, that the Spirit also might sanctify. St Ambrose (339-397) John’s Baptism and Christ’s MINISTRIES OF SERVICE — Sunday 18th January 2015 Counters The collection on Sunday 4th January was £911.92.
