Jesus’ time on earth was characterized by ministering to people. His examples of ministry point to the love, forgiveness, healing, and peace that come from the Father’s heart. In Pastor Robert’s series The Ministries of Jesus you’ll learn about five of Jesus’ ministries outlined in Luke 4: salvation, inner healing, deliverance, healing, and baptism in the Holy Spirit. Scripture tells us we are ambassadors for Christ and a representation of the Father, so let’s learn how to be ministers of the gospel from the greatest teacher of all.
Pastor Robert concludes his series by reminding us that Jesus didn’t leave us to make it on our own—He gave the Holy Spirit to anoint us and bring lasting change.

Baptizo: To dip repeatedly, to immerse, to submerge, to overwhelm. The clearest example that shows the meaning of baptizo is a text from the Greek poet and physician Nicander who lived about 200 BC. It is a recipe for making pickles. Nicander says that in order to make a pickle, the vegetable should first be dipped into boiling water and then “baptized” (baptizo) in the vinegar solution. The act of “baptizing” the vegetable produces a permanent change.
