The central event of the ministry of John was the baptism of Jesus. John had been baptizing, calling for the repentance of sin in ([[Matthew 3:2]]). He proclaimed that [[Kingdom of God]] was coming ([[Matthew 3:1]]) and he prophesied that the Messiah was coming who would baptize with the [[Holy Spirit]] ([[Matthew 3:11]]). In [[Matthew 3:13|verse 13]] we read that Jesus came to John to be baptized.
