Where Do I Go After I Get Wet?

Are the Gospels Contradictory About Where Jesus was After His Baptism?
James Patrick Holding


This is one of those where skeptics show they need comprehension lessons. These two verses are paired:

Mk. 1:12 And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness. (There are parallel verses in Matthew and Luke that are no different.)

Jn. 1:35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples...

The skeptics want to know, where was Jesus after his baptism? I reply, "Huh?" The baptism of Jesus is only referred to in the book of John (1:29-34). The event itself is not transcribed for us there, as it is elsewhere. So what's the point of the question?
