This Is MY Beloved SON

Hello! and happy (Baptism Of The LORD, JESUS CHRIST) to all of us, GUYS.  Our "daily bread" this Monday:

THE GOOD NEWS (09 January 2017)
"At that time JESUS arrived from Galilee and came to John at the Jordan to be baptized by him.  But John tried to prevent HIM, and said, 'How is it YOU come to  me: I should be baptized by YOU!'
But JESUS answered him, 'Let it be like that for now that we may fulfill the right order.'  John agreed.
As soon as HE was baptized, JESUS came up from the water.  At once, the heavens opened and HE saw the Spirit of GOD come down like a dove and rest upon HIM.  At the same time a voice from heaven was heard, 'This is MY Son, the Beloved, HE is MY Chosen One.'" - Matthew 3:13-17 

(In this baptism JESUS identifies HIMSELF with HIS people, more precisely with this world of "untitled" people who want to hear a call to conversion.  For HIM it is an occasion of deep religious experience recalling that of the great prophets.  What the voice says gives JESUS HIS mission.  HE will be Son and Servant of the FATHER [Psalm 2 and Isaiah 42.1].)
