Each year traditional Western Christianity observes Epiphany January 6. Also known as Theophany, Epiphany, as the name suggests, celebrates the revelation of God as incarnate man in Jesus Christ.[1] The celebration of Epiphany often comes on its eve while the Sunday after (or on) the day is named Epiphany Sunday. Themes and scriptures surrounding Epiphany often include the event of the magi visiting Jesus as a child and Jesus’ baptism since such an event was vital in his revelation of who he is. Jesus’ baptism is the topic of confusion, for why would a sinless man need to be baptized? Baptism was not new in Jesus’ day; in fact, baptism has Old Testament roots for cleansing. In the case of Jesus’ baptism, however, the ordinance holds a different meaning. To answer why Jesus needed to be baptized, I suggest three crucial points.

[1] January 6 applies only to those churches, which utilize the Julian Calendar. Many churches of Eastern influence utilize the Gregorian Calendar and observe Epiphany January 19 because of the 13-day difference between the two calendars.
