Quote
“He set the example for all of us to humble ourselves before our Heavenly Father . . . He was baptized to witness to His Father that He would be obedient in keeping His commandments. He was baptized to show us that we should receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. As we follow the example of Jesus, we, too, demonstrate that we will repent and be obedient in keeping the commandments of our Father in Heaven. “
Robert D. Hales
