Savior dan Pembaptis

Jesus stands beside the Jordan River speaking with John the Baptist, whose humble wilderness clothing and attentive posture mark him as the forerunner preparing the way of the Lord. A gathered crowd watches from the riverbank, placing the moment within the public ministry of repentance and expectation that surrounded John’s baptism. The scene points to the beginning of Christ’s earthly ministry, when Jesus came to the Jordan to be baptized, not for repentance, but to fulfill all righteousness and openly identify with the people He came to redeem. John’s gesture of reverence reflects his recognition that the One before him is greater than himself—the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. This artwork is well suited for teaching on baptism, the revelation of Christ, John’s prophetic witness, and the inauguration of Jesus’ ministry.
