John the Baptist served as a bridge between the Old and New Testaments. He called the people to repentance and baptized them in the Jordan River as a sign of spiritual cleansing and conversion. His baptism pointed to the coming of Jesus, who would baptize with the Holy Spirit and fire. John's baptism involved public confession of sins and anticipation of the Messiah's arrival.
