***Now if only you could understand what it means.

I already know what it means...It means what it says...***

You have very admirably demonstrated that you have no idea what it says.

***Barnabas was a bishop of the Church and he laid hands on Paul to ordain him as bishop.

As you just read, Barnabas was right there getting hands layed on him just as Paul was...Certainly Barnabas didn’t need to be consecrated a bishop once again...What’d he do, lose it??? Barnabas never put so much as a finger on Paul...***

Does your Bible have inconstant verse? You actually posted the correct verses.

***Ananais baptized Paul with a dry baptism

Of course Paul was baptized with a dry baptism...All Christians are baptized with a dry baptism....***

Most Christians are baptized with a water baptism.

That's true...But ALL Christians are baptized with a dry baptism...

Well let's try again then...

***Barnabas was a bishop of the Church and he laid hands on Paul to ordain him as bishop

You keep insisting this is what it says...

Act 13:2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

This is what God said to the prophets and teachers...

Act 13:3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

The prophets and teachers layed hands on Barnabas AND Paul...You'll notice Barnabas didn't lay his hands on anyone...He didn't make Paul a bishop...The prophets and teachers layed their hands on Barnabas...

Pretty simple, ain't it...
