First Reading: 1 John 5:5-13
Beloved: 5Who indeed is the victor over the world but the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?
6This is the one who came through water and Blood, Jesus Christ, not by water alone, but by water and Blood. 7The Spirit is the one who testifies, and the Spirit is truth. So there are three that testify, 8the Spirit, the water, and the Blood, and the three are of one accord.
9If we accept human testimony, the testimony of God is surely greater. Now the testimony of God is this, that he has testified on behalf of his Son.
10Whoever believes in the Son of God has this testimony within himself. Whoever does not believe God has made him a liar by not believing the testimony God has given about his Son. 11And this is the testimony: God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
12 Whoever possesses the Son has life; whoever does not possess the Son of God does not have life.
13I write these things to you so that you may know that you have eternal life, you who believe in the name of the Son of God.

Gospel: Mark 1:7-11
7This is what John the Baptist proclaimed: “One mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals. 8I have baptized you with water; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
9It happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John. 10On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him. 11And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”
or Luke 3:23-38
