1. Baptism Types
Eph 4:3-6

2. Baptism Types There is One Baptism
Paul wrote to the Ephesians that there was One
Yet we find many Baptisms in the New Testament
There are many different Baptisms in religions today

3. Baptism Types Commanded by Jesus
Mt 28, Mk 16, Lk 24, Jn 3, Commanded by Jesus
Acts 2:37-38, Apostle’s fulfill Jesus’ Command
This lesson makes the case for the “One Baptism”
The One Jesus commanded
By His authority

4. Baptism Types Commanded by Jesus
Mt 28:19, Make disciples of all nations baptizing them…
Mk 16:15-16, preach gospel to all, he that believes and is baptized shall be saved
Lk 24:47, repentance and remission of sins preached to all nations
Jn 3:1-36, Nicodemus to be “born anew”, He that believes has everlasting life
Lets look at the Baptism Jesus Commanded
Note: the action by Apostles (in general the work of evangelism but specificly here baptizing) active in this work; I Cor 3; Paul, water, Apollos water, God gave the increase.

5. Baptism Types Commanded by Jesus Jesus Commanded Acts 2:37-38
Mt 28:19, Make disciples of all nations baptizing them…
Mk 16:15-16, preach gospel to all, he that believes and is baptized shall be saved
Lk 24:47, repentance and remission of sins preached to all nations
Jn 3:1-36, Nicodemus to be “born anew”, He that believes has everlasting life
Acts 2:37-38

6. Baptism Types Of John the Baptizer
Mt 3:1-7, John preaching repentance and baptism – Kingdom of Heaven is at hand
Mt 3:13-17, Jesus was baptized by John
This Baptism was an Immersion in water
This Baptism was commanded by God
This Baptism was administered by Man
Note, Immersion baptism, God ordained baptism; but not sufficient

7. Baptism Types Of John the Baptizer We find that this baptism ended
Acts 18:24-28, Apollos instructed a different one
Act 19:1-5, Ephesians rebaptized
John’s Baptism had a purpose, it was from God, but it was not baptism in the name of Jesus!
Note, Immersion baptism, God ordained baptism; but not sufficient

8. Baptism Types With Holy Spirit
Mt 3:11, one coming after him that will baptize with the Holy Ghost and Fire
Lk 24:49, promise of the father upon them; they would be endued with power from on high
Acts 1:5, John Baptized with Water, You shall be Baptized with Holy Spirit… Soon
Acts 2:1-4, Apostles baptized with Holy Spirit
Holy Spirit Came upon, not immersed in thought baptism is an appropriate word. Direction is different; into water vs. upon men
Compare Jesus’ commands at end of Mt, Mk, Lk with this baptism; previous was performed by Disciples

9. Baptism Types With Holy Spirit This was promised by Jesus
Lk 24:49, promise of the father upon them; they would be endued with power from on high
Jn 14:16-18, 25-26, 16:7-14, promise of another comforter
This baptism was not commanded by Jesus
This was performed by God
Acts 2:1-4, Apostles baptized with Holy Spirit
Note: the action by Apostles (in general the work of evangelism) active in this work; I Cor 3; Paul, water, Apollos water, God gave the increase.

10. Baptism Types With Holy Spirit
This Baptism was not the one Jesus commanded
Act 8:14-19, Samaria baptized but lacked Holy Spirit
Act 19:1-5, Ephesians baptized but lacked Holy Spirit
Since it was performed by God and it was different than the one Jesus commanded: it is not the “one” Jesus commanded
Some want to teach that the Holy Spirit Baptism and Baptisms Jesus are synonymous, these two passages are irrefutable

11. Baptism Types
Of Fire
Mt 3:11, one coming after him that will baptize with the Holy Ghost and Fire
Could be one and the same with Holy Ghost
Acts 2:1-4, would still be fulfillment
Judgment
Mt 3:10&12, burning the chaff
Either can fit in the the context of Mt 3
This baptism is not administered by any disciple or Apostle.

12. Baptism Types For the Dead
I Cor 15:29, Paul making arguments that prove there is a resurrection
Jesus did not command this one
This is not the response of a believer

13. Baptism Types Into the Church I Cor 12:12-13, Baptized into one body
Missing details given in Acts 2:47, the Lord Added to the church…
Misused passage
Is the body referenced I Cor the local or universal church? Would seem to be local.
Acts 2 is the Universal

14. Baptism Types Requirements Must be correct Baptism
Acts 18:24-28, Apollos teaching corrected
Acts 19:1-5, Ephesians rebaptized
John’s was not sufficient
Though it was Immersion
Though it was commanded by God
Though it was administered by Man

15. Baptism Types Requirements Faith in Jesus
Mk 16:16, Jn 3, he that believes…
Lk 24, Acts 2, Repentance
Acts 8:35-39, Ethiopian Eunuch
I Pet 3:21, answer of a good conscience
For correct reason
Because of individual faith

16. Baptism Types Requirements Immersion in water By Definition By Example
Mt 3:13-17, Jesus’ Baptism (by John) was an immersion
Acts 8:38, went down into the water
By Apostolic Teaching
Rom 6, Paul’s analogy to a burial

17. Baptism Types There is One Baptism Though we find many Baptisms
At the time of Paul writing the letter to Ephesians there was One
Baptism of Jesus
By His Command
Immersion in Water
For the Remission of Sins
Administered by Man
Those not baptized by this baptism were rebaptized
Simple command of Jesus is so corrupted by religious authorities today
