Mark 1:4 and 9

4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.


Christ was not baptized for the remission of sins because he had none. But, as Nephi recounts, he was baptized for the following reasons:
(1) As a token of humility before the Father;
(2) As a covenant that he would keep the commandments;
(3) As a prelude to receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost;
(4) To gain entrance to and be saved in the kingdom of God, for no one, not even the Son of God, can so obtain without baptism; and
(5) As a pattern and an example for all men, and so that he could say: “Follow thou me” and also, “He that is baptized in my name, to him will the Father give the Holy Ghost, like unto me; wherefore, follow me, and do the things which ye have seen me do.” (See 2 Ne. 31:5–12.)

Leaves for the Dominican Republic on the 23rd

oh my goodness... Ella broke her arm? that totally sucks!!!! how bad was it? worse than mine? :-O isn't like the humorus practically the entire length of your arm? and her mom was there... so did you get to meet her? that must have been interesting... I can't believe that her mom totally made her fly down there right then. that is the lamest thing ever. >:(

...but yes, I did get an email from Steven, and Stephanie Babb too. xD how did SHE manage to get my email? cause all she said was that she did some scrounging. ha ha ha!

oh, I leave for the DR on the 23rd. its a really early flight. I don't have the itineraray with me, but I go from here, to texas, to florida, to another Island, and then I believe I take a boat from there, cause it doesn't say that I'm going to DomRep in a plane. so yeah. tahts all the info I have right now, and I would totally run and get it, but I only get thirty minutes on here, which is lame. but hopefully I don't have that limit out in the field. maybe you could ask the elders about that? :)

I think that if you send the pacage normally at this point it wouldn't make it on time, so maybe if you spent just a little more money on your most favorite son ever for a two or three day send it would make it. ;) what bottoms where they?

also! it would be "su madre" ;) not tu madre. su is your, tu is you. ha ha ha! I actually know some spanish now!!! :D woot woot! anyways, I'm cutting it down to the wire and only have fifty seconds left, and it will erase it if I don't finish it and send it before time runs out, so I will email you later!!!!

I love you!
