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.)

WOOO! *wind blows* I'm going to... what?! I can't hear you! the wind is too loud!

*wind stops* whew. ok! so I'm getting sent to Caguas! It's like fifteen minutes south of Bayamon, which is where the mission office is. from what I've been told, it's the second biggest (or third biggest) city in puerto rico, next to San Juan and Ponce. :) so I'm gonna be BiiiiZiE! so HA! I'm not going to the Desert, you bum. :P NYAH! yup yup yeppers. and my new companion is going to be Elder Bailey. man, I saw his picture that Elder Dye had (he was a moving Elder, the people that move stuff around in the mission and take people to and from the Airport and stuff like that, so he hada nifty littly packet of all the missionaries and their pictures and the addresses of all the apartments, which I was supposed to GRAB FROM HIM but we forgot!) plus, we had to run to Santurce for a checkup appointment he had about his foot (he had a nasty nasty NASTY ingrown toenail. xD ) but anyways, I saw his picture and he TOTALLY looks like Hayden Christianson, the guy that played Anakin In numbers two and three. ha ha ha!

yeah! thanksgiving is Totally gonna be a toss up for me. I can only hope that the memebers of the WARD (that's right, it's a ward now!) love him enough to have invited us to go eat over and their houses :3 Mmmm, that would be nice, eh?! :D


Love you guys mucho mucho mucho!
