The Meeting of the Three-in-One in Baptism

"Note how in Christ's Baptism the Trinity does as it were meet; The Father with a Voice, the Son baptized in Person; The Holy Ghost descends like a Dove: And surely it is one Reason, why Baptism in special is to be administered in the Name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost; because he who doth sincerely believe,and is baptized, the Whole Trinity, the Father, Son and Spirit, is his portion; and that glorious Union of the Trinity in Christ's Baptism, is in every Believer's Baptism commemorated." -- From Baptism Discovered Plainly and Faithfully, According to the Word of God by John Norcott, second Pastor of the old Wapping Church (pp. 6-7)
