John's Baptism that was a Water Baptism was only for a time until CHRIST comes and Baptizes the believer with the Holy Ghost unto Salvation and the Fire Represents God's Presence and Power. Water Baptism was required as a symbol of what was to come, but now that the Savior has come, we are Saved by the Holy Spirit Baptism, NOT water Baptism.
Mt 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Lu 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
It is the Holy Spirit that Baptizes unto Salvation:
1Co 12:13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. {Gentiles: Gr. Greeks}
last time i checked you werent baptized by water that was actually holy or clean from sin, let alone fire or incense. Should try those things instead of loving the words of death letters & with empty faithless deeds
