Description

Fr. Mike elaborates on the significance of the Baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River. He points out that the location of the Jordan River is particularly noteworthy because it's the same river that Joshua crossed over to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land, signifying that Jesus will bring about a new exodus. Additionally, it's the lowest spot on the planet, symbolizing Jesus' humility. Finally, Fr. Mike emphasizes that when we are baptized, we are adopted as beloved sons and daughters of God because what belongs to Jesus by his nature is given to us by God’s grace. Today we read Luke 3-5 and Proverbs 25:27-28.

Father I respect you and your work is amazing but God the father is pleased with Jesus not only because He is His own son but He is also obedient. God is NOT well pleased with the general baptized person unless this person is a saint or struggle to do his/her own best to overcome sin!!!! This is the greatest problem with the Novus Ordo hearing these .... unwise (this is the best adjective I can think of) things. What do you accomplish preaching that God is pleased with us?? Quietism and laziness
