1 John 5:6-8 The Message (MSG)
Jesus—the Divine Christ! He experienced a life-giving birth and a death-killing death. Not only birth from the womb, but baptismal birth of his ministry and sacrificial death.

A triple testimony: the Spirit, the Baptism, the Crucifixion. And the three in perfect agreement.
