John the Baptist was a great prophet. He taught people to repent
and baptized them.
One day John was baptizing
people in the Jordan River.
Jesus came and asked John to
baptize Him.
John knew that Jesus didn’t
have any sins. So why did Jesus want to be
baptized?
Jesus said He needed to obey
all of the commandments.
Being baptized is a
commandment.
After John baptized Jesus, a dove came to show that the
Holy Ghost was there.
Heavenly Father’s voice came
from heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased.”
We can obey the commandments and
choose to be baptized, like Jesus. Then we can be confirmed and
have the gift of the Holy Ghost too.
The Holy Ghost can always
be with me. He can guide me, comfort me, and help me follow Jesus every day.
