Mt 12: 46-50:
Passage through the red sea inaugurated the beginning of the people of God. Our
baptism is also the beginning of a process of our maturing in the Lord. The
truly significant bonds that join people are not biological but spiritual: the
shared experiences of school, seminary, political campaigns, joy, sorrow and
deliverance. Jesus tells us that those who listen to and keep his word are his
brothers and sisters in a new family that knit together by the Holy Spirit. We
all have experienced deliverance through baptism.
