They are going to come back with all the verses about water baptism. Water is symbolic of the word of Jesus and being washed in the blood. “all who drink from this water will never thirst again”

"Water is symbolic of the word of Jesus and being washed in the blood."

"...even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word..." (Ephesians 5:25-26)

"Water is symbolic of the word of Jesus and being washed in the blood."

The phrase "Washed by the Blood" of may appear in your hymnal, but it doesn't appear in your Bible.
