Following the Master in Water Baptism (2 of 6)
Series: The Apprentice
Frank Damazio
Luke 3:21-22
We are apprenticed to Jesus. We have chosen Him as our master to learn from and He has chosen us. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Our calling in life is to become like our master. First John 2:6 says that whoever abides in Him ought to walk in the same way that He walked. Second Corinthians 11:1 advises us to be imitators of Paul as he imitates Christ. Second Corinthians 3:18 says that we, beholding His glory, are being transformed into the same image. Our destiny is to become like Jesus, so, as apprentices we set ourselves to learn from Him. In the gospel of Luke there are snapshots of exactly where we can learn to be like Jesus. Let us go through some of those moments starting with Luke 3:21-22.

The master we follow was baptized in water by immersion with supernatural affirmations, and we as apprentices are eager to follow His example.
