"John the Baptist [1, 2] appeared, preaching in the desert of Judea 

and saying, 'Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!'....
'....I am baptizing you with water, for repentance,

but the One who is coming after me is mightier than I.
I am not worthy to carry His sandals.
He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.
His winnowing fan is in His hand.
He will clear His threshing floor and gather His wheat into His barn,
but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire.'"
