Answer 1

huh? You should get a clue on the subject matter.

Answer 2

The Bible speaks of the Trinity---the "Father," the "Son," and the "Holy Ghost" (sometimes called the "Holy Spirit"). God is the Father, but one can pray to God through his son, Jesus, so sometimes Jesus also gets the label of "God."

The Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit, is the spirit of God that comes upon a person when he or she is ready for it. It is God, but in a way that humans can understand and accept.

As far as the Biblical story of Jesus' Baptism by John the Baptist (his cousin) at the Jordan River, God was present, just not in human form. His presence is symbolized by the white dove that appeared after the baptism was complete.

The baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist was foretold by an angel before either of the men was born, while their mothers (Mary and Elizabeth) were still pregnant with them.

The baptism is merely an outward sign of the beginning of Jesus' ministry. Of course, as God's son, Jesus did not need the outward symbol of baptism as a sign of the "washing away of his sins." Rather, it is a model for men to follow, to show their commitment and dedication to God and his son's (Jesus') teachings.

Answer 3

Check out John 1:1. Also, God is also called "the Trinity": God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. How could Jesus, here on earth, have communicated with His Father in heaven if He didn't have a Father in Heaven? (Side note: God is "omnipresent" ---He's present everywhere, in other words, He knows everything that's going on everywhere at all times) When Jesus was baptized & the dove descended from the sky (look it up in your Bible; it's there) that was a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Those who were baptized heard the Father (as well as Jesus--He heard Him too) "This is My Son, in whom I am well pleased." Also, Jesus was & still is our example. He showed us how to live (now obviously we're not perfect, being descendants of Adam & Eve and all; we have that sinful, carnal nature). He being baptized & a mature age at which one can understand some things about the Bible, was our example to be baptized. Other than that, no, He, being sinless, did not need to be baptized. He did it for our sake.

Answer 4

God became flesh in the person of Jesus as a way to show mankind the way to live, God's way. Jesus was baptized in the river Jordan by John the Baptist as an example of what God want us to do. Jesus' entire life was meant to be an example to us of how God wants us to live. God also gives each of us the choice of whether to accept it or not. If you don't, so be it. It's your choice.

It seems there are so many non-believers who are miserable and angry because they cannot shake the faith of those who believe in God. They spend all their time trying to criticize and belittle Christians. However, Christians expect non-believers to act this way because they do not know any better.

Christians live by logic and faith combined. The non-believer simply cannot understand how these two fit together.

Answer 5

1 Tim 3:16 "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory." KJV

The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are 1 X 1 X 1 =1 Omni-present God

He did a physical baptism as an example of obedience, not for need of salvation. There are some things God has to reveal to you Himself, if you let Him. Ask Him now.

Answer 6

your mixing categories...

first of all God is everywhere, so the God in heaven but not on earth isnt true... God is manifest in heaven perhaps in a different way

second, Jesus did not need to be baptized, in the usualy way and it even was confusing to John the Baptists when Jesus came to be baptized... Jesus was baptized to identify with sinners and as an example not out of personal need

Jesus was God the Son from eternity who took on an additional human nature at Bethlehem. He was human enough to die. He was divine enough to be raise himself from the dead
"tear down this temple and in three days I will raise it again" John 2

Answer 7

Jesus IS God! Can't you understand!
Yes when Jesus was Baptized God was in Heaven. So was Jesus because Jesus always was God.
John chapter 1 vs 1 says "In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word WAS GOD.
vs 4 says in HIM (meaning God, was the LIGHT) no skip to John 8:12 Jesus says "I am the LIGHT of the world. So we know that Jesus was in God. It's always been that way.
Now back to John ch 1 vs 14. The WORD (meaning God) was made FLESH and dwelt among us. So we see that God dwelt among us as Jesus.
When Jesus was baptized of John He didn't NEED it. No one really NEEDS it for salvation. It is a public act of a comittment (much the same as wearing a wedding ring)
In Matthew 3:15 Jesus says "it must be this way for now for it becometh us to fulfill all righteousness.
So now we can understand by this that Jesus was setting an example. That we all should also be baptized in His name.

It is IMPOSSIBLE for our human FINITE minds to understand or comprehend how God could be in two places at once. But yet we seem to accept that He is all of our hearts all at the same time.
In Exodus God says "I am that I am" By this he is referring to His omnipresence. He is God. He is not human. He is not limited by human power or lack of it. If God chooses to be everywhere at once, who are you to say He can't?

Answer 8

Why can't Jesus be God? Just because one can't accept that idea doesn't preclude it. You are forcing your finite thinking on an infinite God, how bold! You seem to forget why Jesus came to earth. His baptism was to prepare Him for His upcoming ministry. The trinitarian doctrine is taught throughout the scriptures. Here is a small sampling. Genesis 1, the word for God in the Hebrew is EL, however, Elohim is plural and is applied, because it is not one person involved. Read Hebrews 1, Jesus is referred to a Son(v.5) and as God(v.8) and as the Creator of the universe.(v. 10) In Genesis 1:26, God says, "Let us," indicating plurality of persons. In verse 1, the Spirit of God was involved. Genesis 18, Abraham is visited by three persons, one whom he calls LORD(Adonai)v 27 Other verses refer to the visitor as LORD, vss, 10, 13, 17 and 20. Numbers 6:24-26, the priestly blessing uses LORD three times, indicating three persons, as in Isaiah 6:6, LORD three times. The Shimah, in Deuteronomy 6:4, the word one is referring to unity of plurality.
Compare Isaiah 44:6 with Revelation 1:17; compare Exodus 3:14, with John 10:30, both the LORD, and Jesus use the I am statements, why do you think the Jewish leaders wanted to stone Jesus. He equated Himself with God. As in John 8:58. Further in John 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and Word was God." But in the Greek word order is not significant, some pseudo-Christian groups miss this point. Now here is the Greek redition; " In beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and God was the WORD." //(this is the Greek translation: Hoy Theos pros Logos),// in the Greek THE article is assumed, and further there is only ONE article with 24 forms of the article, THE. No indefinite article as in English.

Answer 9

Jesus was baptised as to set an example of obedience to God the Father, the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove lighted upon Him and God spoke saying, This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased" As far as your not accepting Him and what He did for you, take that up with God. He must be true to Himself.

Answer 10

Jesus is the messiah. He came to earth to be tempted and turn away from it. He came to set an example for us. He was baptized (correct spelling by the way) as an example of what we should do. What you don't understand about God is he is omnipresent. He is everywhere at once. He is almighty and could easily be in Heaven and on Earth at the same time.

Answer 11

Oh, its worse that that. There are THREE of them. In One.

Father, Son, Holy Spirit....count 'em...three at the Jordan River that day. All three are different manifestations of the One and Only God. Think about it. If God is God, He could choose to exist in whatever form or forms He wanted to.
