What did John the Baptizer say before baptizing Jesus?

Answer 1

There are no actual words recorded which John spoke as he baptized Christ, only those which he spoke before, these I paraphrase. John said that it should have been Christ who should be baptizing John and not the other way round. He felt that he was not worthy to perform the ceremony.

re: (in the Holy Scriptures) When Jesus was about 30 years old, He came from Nazareth to the river Jordan and was baptized by John the Baptist (see Matthew 3:13; Mark 1:9; Luke 3:23)

Answer 4

At Matthew 3:13-15 John says to Jesus: "... "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?"(NIV)

("John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me"(KJV))

Answer 5

Jesus didn't baptize people:

Joh 4:1 The Pharisees heard that Jesus was winning and baptizing more disciples than John.

Joh 4:2 (Actually, Jesus himself did not baptize anyone; only his disciples did.)

When John's disciples told him people were going to Jesus, John said

Joh 3:30 He must become more important while I become less important."

You can read the full account of what John the Baptist said in the gospel of John chapter 3.

Answer 6

In reply Jesus said to John: "Let it be, this time, for in that way it is suitable for us to carry out all that is righteous." (Matthew 3:15)
