Good morning as I sit in quietness in these wee morning hours...and the house is quite...to revisit
Jesus baptizing which is said not to have happened in John 4:2 which contradicts John 4:1 is such a perfect choice of verses to bring out the use of adding words in the parenthesis which in fact dispute the words of the very words in the preceding verse that Jesus did baptize.
The evidence of Jesus being said to be baptizing in correct as it is mentioned as Jesus baptizing HIS DISCIPLES which John did not qualify to do, but only JESUS.
John 3:25-26 Then there arose a dispute between some of John’s disciples and the Jews about purification. 26 And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified
—behold, He is baptizing, and all bare coming to Him!
John 3:26 confirms that Jesus did baptize his disciples and others as John did not make disciple for Christ which is proven in Acts where John's disciples where baptized by Jesus disciples later I believe is recorded in the book of Acts..I will look for the verse.
The words of God compliment each other in the same truth and the added verses stating Jesus did not baptize (John 4:2) is man's doing and is incorrect and has been taught by teachers as Jesus not baptizing.
John 4:2 is incorrectly added as John 3:26 agrees with John 4:1 showing John 4:2 which is added to the bible to be incorrect.
I believe the truth that Jesus did baptize as all the information given to us supports Jesus did baptize. I will place my trust in the Holy Spirit which has shown me this morning John 3:26 proving John 4:1 to be truth and I will discord John 4:2 as it has been added and does not flow with God's truth that Jesus baptized as supported by other verses..
Jesus baptized his disciple as it were necessary their baptism in order to be a disciple of Christ. John had no authority in the baptism mentioned below.
Acts 1:22
Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that Jesus was taken up from us,
must one be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.
As John had no authority in ORDAINING of witnesses OF CHRIST because from John he preached of one to come after him and When Jesus came and was baptizing those who believed he was the Messiah, God's Son as he had HIS FOLLOWERS and the baptism had to start with Jesus baptizing as he was the one baptizing disciples of HIMSELF.
When the truth of the verses teach us what happened in Jesus baptizing, I will take the verses over the commentaries that say Jesus did not. And when the parenthesis are not backed up in the very words of God throughout HIS WORDS I will NOT ACCEPT WHAT IS ADDED IN. amen
In Christ's love
