Spirit Baptism

Famous quotes containing the words spirit and/or baptism:

    We placed the wreaths upon the splended granite sarcophagus, and at its feet, and felt that only the earthly robe we loved so much was there. The pure, tender, loving spirit which loved us so tenderly, is above us—loving us, praying for us, and free from all suffering and woe—yes, that is a comfort, and that first birthday in another world must have been a far brighter one than any in this poor world below!
    Victoria (1819–1901)

    This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
    Bible: New Testament Matthew, 3:17.

    A “voice from heaven,” following the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist.
