To whom can we turn with more confidence for knowledge about all
baptisms ordained or intended for us than unto John the Baptist whom we
are told was sent to administer one baptism, and unto Christ who was the
author of another baptism?[82]

Three times in eight verses John says his baptism is of water, thus
distinguishing it from Christ's baptism without water.[83]

They are both quoted as testifying to two dissimilar and distinct
baptisms administered at different times, one with water and the other
without.

Neither of them intimates that these two baptisms shall ever be united,
but they do both plainly intimate that they shall not be united, and
that the first shall pass away and the second remain, and no other be
introduced.[84]

John says: He (Christ) shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit; but John
never says that he nor anyone else shall ever baptize you with
water.[85]

Christ says: Ye shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit,[86] but he
nowhere even intimates that we shall ever be baptized with water, nor
does he ever mention water baptism but once, and this was with his last
words when he introduced his own baptism of the Holy Spirit as its
immediate successor.[87]
