"Let it be so
now; for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." -
Matthew 3:15
Jesus made this
statement just before his baptism. If you think about it, these words are
appropriate at every baptism. Part of the reason that we get baptized is to
fulfill all righteousness.
Hoping that you
continue to fulfill righteousness all your life,
Dr. J. Clontz

which also he went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly did
not obey, when the patience of God waited in the days of Noah, during the
building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through
water. 21 And corresponding to that, baptism now saves you – not the removal of
dirt from the flesh, but an appeal to God for a good conscience – through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ,

text from “The Comprehensive New Testament.”
