Jesus was baptized for our sake so that we may be connected to Him in our baptism. We notice Satan didn’t leave Jesus alone after His baptism. Satan doesn’t leave us alone after our baptism either. We can still be tempted, sin, and have terrible things happen to us. Yet, God gives us wonderful gifts in our baptism like forgiveness of sins and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit helps us resist the Devil and temptations.
We are connected with Christ in our baptism. We share in Christ’s death and resurrection. We also share in His inheritance. Thank God our sinful nature is drown in our baptism and we are able to partake in God’s good gifts.
