What a Moment!—Marked by a Statement, Sealed with a Lesson

In this sermon, Stuart Olyott highlights the pivotal moment of Jesus’ baptism as a turning point where all three persons of the Godhead—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—are revealed together. He repeatedly challenges us to reflect on the event by asking, “What a moment! What a statement! What a lesson!” He was uniquely perfect, so much so that the Father declared, “You are my beloved son; in you I am well pleased.” This declaration underscores that Jesus’ unblemished life is the standard to which believers can look, for through the glorious truth of of imputation, His righteousness is credited to us, inviting us to offer every moment of our lives to please God.
