does Acts 10:47 say “ that these should not be baptized” or does it say “that these should not be water baptized”

biblical Christian Baptism involves water, the Holy Spirit and the Church.

the Bible does not teach there is such a concept as “water” baptism, nor “spirit” baptism.

no, the Bible speaks of “baptism”

this is what Christians received from the Apostles and this is what Christians have believed for 2,000 years. The Bible and the Church only know “baptism”

>>the Bible does not teach there is such a concept as “water” baptism, nor “spirit” baptism.<<

1 Corinthians 6:11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are >b>sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

You missed being baptized into Christ.

Don't quit your day job. I think the Roman Catholic Church doesn't need someone who "wings" it. Have you forgotten about the terms "Baptism of Desire" or "Baptism of Blood", terms the Catholic Church created? Apparently, the "church" in this case disagrees that there is "only one baptism".
