GOSPEL: Luke 3: 15 - 17, 21, 22 (RCL) 
                  Luke 3: 15 - 16, 21, 22 (alt. for Roman Catholic) 
 
Luke 3:15 (NRSV) As the people were filled with expectation, and all were
questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the
Messiah,  16 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.  17
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."  
 
21 Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been
baptized and was praying, the heaven was opened,  22 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."
