According to Matthew 3:14-15 Jesus’s baptism was a fulfillment of righteousness. Jesus was without sin and did not need the baptism of repentance. John the baptist was alignment with the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus wanted to be in the right position.

Our protection and position is submission to the Kingdom of God’s authority. We position ourselves the Word of our King and the will of our King.
