Upon baptism, you're offering yourself to God and your soul will be cleansed of all sins. Jesus died for our sins, so asking God to purify us in the name of Jesus Christ will make it happen.

What is the reason why Jesus was baptized by John?

Jesus fulfilled Scripture when he was water baptized. But He was not baptized for His sins- He was sinless. When Jesus was baptized, He was baptized with the Holy Spirit, and with the Spirit came power. Jesus never performed any miracles before he was baptized. He had the Holy spirit, but he was not baptized with the full power of the Spirit until John baptized him.


What is the Holy Spirit represented in the baptism of Jesus?

Like a dove - never as a person:Matthew 3:16New King James Version (NKJV)16 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.

Who in the Bible baptized in the name of the father son and holy spirit?

No one. All baptism was in the name of Jesus from Acts. 2:38 throughout the new testament.AnswerMatthew 28:19 - Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,The answer, "no one," assumes that the apostles took the liberty of disobeying Jesus in this matter, based (apparently) on what Peter is recorded as saying in Acts 2:38 - Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.And yes, in addition, disciples are spoken of as having been baptized in the name of (the Lord) Jesus in Acts 8:16, 10:48 and 19:5. But consider the following.Jesus' words were a direct commandment to His apostles. Peter's words were a summary statement to a sermon. There was no need for Peter to say, "...be baptized in the name of Jesus, and the Father, and the Holy Spirit." He wasn't presenting a treatise on baptism, he was teaching its necessity. The statement, "...in the name of Jesus Christ..." was sufficient to his purpose. Nor was there need for Luke to say more in the later references, as familiarity with Matthew 28:19 illuminates what is meant to be baptized in the name of Jesus.It is impossible to say that no one baptized in such a way: in all the cases of conversion recorded in the New Testament, the exact words spoken over the one being baptized are NEVER related. For believers, the reasonable assumption is that the apostles did (and taught) exactly as Jesus commanded. To claim otherwise by using later statements in Acts as a stumbling-block over Jesus' commandment in Matthew is tantamount to "resisting the Holy Spirit."Acts 7:51 - You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.
