Baptism is water and God’s word/command.

Act_1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

The easiest way to know that baptism is not water is because they are spelled way differently...

So if baptize means water, the verse could read, ‘John baptized with baptism’...Or John watered with water...Or John watered with baptism...

If baptism means water in the above verse then baptism means Holy Ghost as well...

And since baptism also means Holy Ghost, it would be accurate to say ‘you will be Holy Ghosted with the Holy Ghost’...

Just because you see ‘water’ you can’t think baptism...And when you see baptism, it doesn’t mean water...


Huh?
