Collect
Eternal Father,
who at the baptism of Jesus
revealed him to be your Son,
anointing him with the Holy Spirit:
grant to us, who are born again by water and the Spirit,
that we may be faithful to our calling as your adopted children;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
First Reading – Isaiah 43.1-7 (page 728)
Thus says the LORD, he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: Do
not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you
pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not
overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame
shall not consume you. For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your
Saviour. I give Egypt as your ransom, Ethiopia and Seba in exchange for you. Because
you are precious in my sight, and honoured, and I love you, I give people in return for
you, nations in exchange for your life. Do not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your
offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you; I will say to the north,
‘Give them up’, and to the south, ‘Do not withhold; bring my sons from far away and
my daughters from the end of the earth – everyone who is called by my name, whom I
created for my glory, whom I formed and made.’
Gospel – Luke 3.15-17,21-22 (page 1029)
(In the wilderness John proclaimed a baptism of repentance.) As the people were filled
with expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he
might be the Messiah, John answered all of them by saying, ‘I baptize you with water;
but one who is more powerful than I is coming; I am not worthy to untie the thong of
his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing-fork is in
his hand, to clear his threshing-floor and to gather the wheat into his granary; but the
chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.’ Now when all the people were baptized, and
when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heaven was opened, and the
Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from
heaven, ‘You are my Son, the Beloved; with you I am well pleased.’
