Jesus anointed with the Holy Ghost
 

Acts 10:38
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

Luke 4:1
And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness.


I really find these scriptures fascinating. It is my understanding Jesus power came from the Holy Ghost. Was Jesus the first Apostolic?

No, He never spoke in tongues! :)

Guess you don't know what the word apostolic means.Apostolic don't mean to speak with tongues.

Was Jesus baptized in his own name?

It was TIC, hence the smiley. Tell some Apostolics that! The Roman Catholic Church considers itself Apostolic.

Of course not, he was baptized in John's name, because John being a respected rabbi confirmed Jesus to the masses by acknowledging that He came from God, therefore they should "hear ye Him".

Jesus anointed with the Holy Ghost.
 

Jesus was our example! He was baptized to "fulfill all righteousness".

Jesus is the measure of the "temple of the Living God". When we

look into the "Mirror" (The Word of God), and see HIM, we will have

become! Meanwhile we are becoming...like unto His glorious Body.

Meanwhile:

Write on the parchment of my soul today;
The message that You'd wish, my life to say.
I'm weary with my way, it's Your's I must find,
So mold me and bend me, not my will but Thine!

Create in me, Your Image, O, Lord,
Let me be all You've dreamed I could be.
And when You have finished Your work, Lord, in me,
I pray that JESUS is all they can see.

Often I've reached for this world and it's gain,
Each time to find out, it brought only pain.
I've finally learned that Your Way, Lord, is best,
And with the learning has brought peace and rest.

The words to this beautiful song was written by Sis. Joan Ewing,

and sung so beautifully by her husband, Bro. Merle Ewing.

I have loved it because it expresses the desire of my heart to

be like Jesus!

Wait a second...

Matthew 27:46 KJV And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

;)

Jesus was baptized "in John's name" because John witnessed the baptism.
Some of Jesus' early disciples were first disciples of John (ref John 1:35-42) so they had also been baptized in John's name. Is there any record that they were later re-baptized by Jesus?
