Speaker: Rob Berreth
Scripture: Matthew 3:13-17
Episode Overview:
In Matthew 3:13–17, the baptism of Jesus opens a window into the heart of the gospel: God saves sinners. At the Jordan River, the Father speaks, the Son submits, and the Spirit descends—revealing the Triune God acting together in perfect unity to accomplish salvation. Though sinless, Jesus steps into the place of sinners, identifying fully with them in order to fulfill all righteousness on their behalf. This passage shows that salvation is not human achievement, but God’s gracious work from beginning to end.
Key Highlights:
• The Trinity revealed: Father, Son, and Spirit united in the mission of salvation
• Why Jesus’ baptism mattered, even though He had no sin
• What it means for Christ to “fulfill all righteousness” for His people
• How Jesus identifies with sinners without becoming a sinner
• God’s delight and approval in the saving work of His Son
• The assurance and security that flow from a salvation planned and completed by God
Call to Action:
Come honestly before God as you are—without excuses, self-reliance, or comparison. Rest in the finished work of Christ, trusting that what you could never accomplish for yourself, Jesus has fully done for you. Let this truth shape your repentance, deepen your assurance, and lead you into grateful obedience grounded in grace.
