[Alan Gross]

He may have meant 1 cor 12 .13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.?

The first portion refers to The Holy Spirit Leading those who were Saved, in Corinth, to join The Lord's church at Corinth, by WATER BAPTISM.

"For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, (into church assembly, at Corinth).

The second portion is the inclusion of both Gentiles and Jews in a church assembly, (from the first portion)

"whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free";

since, as we see in the third section they were both included in Salvation

"and have been all made to drink into one Spirit."


The Spirit has never "baptized" anything.

There is "one baptism".

 

[Van]

any plan of Salvation must begin with sin.

Twaddle, any plan of Salvation must begin with God.

Am I being to simplistic by saying where there is no water then it means no water involved in the verse or verses ? otherwise we would be reading into the text. I see all the verses related to water actually mention or imply water .The above verse mentions no H20 or even implies water . Thus the ONE baptism is when The Holy Spirit 'Baptises us ' as the verses simply say .
