1 Nephi 11:27

And I looked and beheld the Redeemer of the world,

of whom my father had spoken;

and I also beheld the prophet who should prepare the way before him.

And the Lamb of God went forth and was baptized of him;

and after he was baptized,

I beheld the heavens open,

and the Holy Ghost come down out of heaven

and abide upon him in the form of a dove.

and the Lamb of God descending out of heaven;

and he came down and showed himself unto them.
