The Spirit Descending - Mark 1:9-11

Mark 1:9-11 ESV 


In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. And when he came up out of the water, immediately he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”


Christ was never reborn from above. He was born from above, the only begotten Son of the living God. He was brought into the world by the Holy Spirit and it was Christ who brings the Holy Spirit into the heart of man.


We are adopted as sons of God when we receive Jesus Christ who is one with the Father and Spirit. Likewise, we the many enter into the one. This is the Bride of Christ. 


The Holy Spirit hovers over the waters of the world to bring forth the light of God into creation.
