7. Here is what John was preaching. "After me, one will come who is more powerful than I am. I'm not good enough to bend down and untie his sandals.
8. I baptize you with water. But he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
9. At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee. John baptized him in the Jordan River.
10. Jesus was coming up out of the water. Just then he saw heaven being torn open. He saw the Holy Spirit coming down on him like a dove.
11. A voice spoke to him from heaven. It said, "You are my Son, and I love you. I am very pleased with you."
