Before John the Baptist could baptize individuals, they were required to repent for their sins. This act of repentance involved acknowledging their wrongdoings and turning away from them, demonstrating a sincere desire for spiritual renewal. Additionally, people were often encouraged to confess their sins as part of the preparation for baptism, symbolizing their commitment to a new life aligned with God’s will.
