"Jesus Our Righteousness" - Mark 1:9-13

Mark 1 portrays Jesus' baptism by John, the Spirit descending like a dove, and God declaring him "my beloved son." Immediately after this coronation, Jesus is driven into the wilderness and tempted—showing his identification with humanity.

The episode emphasizes that Jesus not only takes our sins but also fulfills all righteousness, inviting us to trust God's word and rely on his perfect life given to us.
