[AMMON-CENTRIST]

I agree, according to the Book of Acts, Peter said to repent, be baptized, and recieve the Holy Ghost. John's Baptism is essential to christianity. The Holy Ghost can not reside in a sinful shell.

John's Baptism is essential to christianity

Oops. So much for the penitent thief.

John's Baptism is essential to christianity.

And that's why Christ did it. Oops, no He didn't did He? [John 4:2] So let me get this straight: the Lord Jesus Christ, in the process of conveying the Gospel to us, failed, neglected and refused to do something that was "essential" but you have discovered and intuited it and you will help us out?

You won't be offended will you if I just stick with Jesus?
