And from here again we have this mishmash called baptism, and everybody does it their own way. You think there was a special prayer that Yeshua said when He was going into the water? John, first of all his baptism was about repentance, Is there any repentance that Yeshua had to do? No, his baptism wasn’t one of repentance, his baptism was one of change of status, and in the Jewish mind, anytime you go from an unclean to a clean position, you go into the waters of a mikvah. It is not a one time thing.
And here we see Yeshua going in…(continued on audio)
