14 But John tried to stop him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and are you coming to me?”

At this, he permitted him to be baptized. 16 When Jesus had been baptized, he immediately came up out of the water. Suddenly, the heavens opened up for him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him.
