Jesus demonstrates and announces the inauguration of a new kingdom - one marked by repentance and faith in the Good News - and he has the power to declare freedom to the captives of all things physical and spiritual.
In Jesus Christ, God enters into simple, humble, and unremarkable circumstances to demonstrate that He desires to bring glory to His name by saving and redeeming His people - no matter their helpless state.
God is glorifying himself by saving and redeeming people through Jesus Christ, so we celebrate by faith what is coming to pass - a deeper reality than ourselves - with profound joy.
God is at work by the power of His Spirit to demonstrate to the world that Jesus is the Lord and King that will fulfill the desires and dreams of every human being at His final return.
The Good News to which we cling is that Jesus has died, been buried, and has been raised on our behalf; so baptism is an open declaration to the world – a picture of the Good News.
The consequences of human sinfulness are visible in suffering and death, but God has the power to take even the consequences of sin and use them as the means for the salvation of His people and the glory of His Name.
