Why Was Jesus Baptized?: Things Unseen with Sinclair B. Ferguson

Summary

The sermon explores the significance of Jesus' baptism, emphasizing it as a demonstration of the "wonderful exchange" where Jesus became sin for us so that we could become the righteousness of God. It references John the Baptist's cry, "Look, the Lamb of God," and Jesus' baptism on the cross as key scriptural and symbolic moments. The practical takeaway is that baptism visually proclaims the gospel, calling believers to trust in Christ and live in light of their justified and adopted status in His righteousness.
