Spirit Baptism

Famous quotes containing the words spirit and/or baptism:

    Lord, thy most pointed pleasure take
    And stab my spirit broad awake;

    Choose thou, before that spirit die,
    A piercing pain, a killing sin,
    And to my dead heart run them in!
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)

    This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
