I was just thinking the same thing… have we misunderstood some of Q's posts?
Hey Hrabar, Trudeau called, he wants his missing brows back!!
Baptism by SPIRIT not by water.
What John was doing, which he himself stated, was just a mirror of something better to come - Jesus Christ & getting born again with Holy Spirit!!!
Read the Epistles, which are addressed to born again believers, which explain it better, like Romans. Don't just concentrate on the old testament& the Gospel, which were written BEFORE it was available to be born again.
