John the Baptist was the "voice in the wilderness" that spoke of the coming messiah. John asked people to repent and baptized people in the Jordan river.

Why is the christian dove important?

In the gospels we read that when Jesus was baptized in the Jordan river by John the Baptist, the Holy Spirit descended in the form of a dove.

When Jesus ascended to the right hand of the Father, the Holy Spirit was sent to indwell and empower believers in their life of faith.
