We know that Jesus himself was baptised by immersion in water (Matthew 3).
John the Baptist preached that "one would come after who would baptise with spirit and fire", however, Jesus does not appear to have baptised anyone via immersion in water and yet, the apostles clearly did this long after the cross.
I am also querying the relationship between Christian baptisms, the sanctuary service, and Jesus as both our sacrificial lamb and high priest (i feel that there is a link i the sanctuary services that explains why Jesus did not baptise in water)
If the baptism via immersion as performed by John the Baptist was an important ritual, what happened as a result of a break in the timeline between the death of John the Baptist, and the Day of Pentecost approx 7 weeks after Jesus crucifixion? (John died quite some time before Jesus did so if baptism by immersion in water is crucial in salvation, what happened immediately after John the baptist died as there is no record of any further water baptisms until the apostles)
