Mark 1:9-13
And it happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth, Galilee, and was bathed in the Jordan by John. And coming straight out of the water he saw the skies split apart and the breath like a dove coming down upon him. And a voice came out of the skies: "You are my son, my beloved son in whom I am delighted."
And directly the spirit drove him out into the wilderness. And he was in the wilderness for forty days being tested by Satan, and he was there among the wild beasts, and heavenly messengers were taking care of him.
John 1:1-5

All things happened through it, and not one thing that has happened, happened without it. Within it there was Life, and the Life was the light of the world. And in the darkness the light is shining, and the darkness never got hold of it.
1 Corinthians 15:1-8
I remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good news that I brought you the good news of, which you accepted and live within, and through which you are being saved, if you keep to the same words in which I brought you the good word — and if you don't, you never believed for real. Now among the first things I transmitted to you, as I received them, were these: that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures and that he was buried and that he is risen on the third day according to the scriptures, and that he appeared to Peter and then the Twelve. Next he appeared to over five hundred of the faithful at once, of whom most are still with us though some have gone to their rest. After that he appeared to James and all the apostles. Last of all he appeared, so to speak, to the runt of the litter, me.
