To: one Lord one faith one baptism
also, Acts 19:1-5 clearly teaches John’s baptism was not NT baptism commanded by Jesus. Oh, and one more thing in case anyone has any doubt, Jesus was sinless and would never of had to be baptized with John’s baptism of repentence nor NT baptism for the remission of sins.

So, Jesus was baptized NOT to take away His sin, He had none, nor was He baptized to be saved, he didn't need to be. Jesus Christ was baptized because it was part of the Law and He fulfilled it perfectly.

why emphasize “NOT”, I never said He was anything other than sinless. He had to be the lamb without blemish, or His Sacrifice on the cross would have been meaningless.
don’t tell me you believe in setting up straw men, just to knock them down? if yes, we won’t get very far in our discussion.
