Baptism is part of the Great Commission

The only correct thing you posted. The rest is the result of a too fruitful imagination.

As mentioned before, see Romans 6.

Romans 6:3-4
“Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.”

These verses describe the baptism by means of God the Holy Spirit which every believer in Christ receives at the moment of salvation. The baptism by means of God the Holy Spirit is what the ritual of water baptism symbolizes.
