Baptized twice! Once by John/in preparation to meet the Lord & A 2nd time In Jesus Name for the remission/forgiveness/pardon from sin.
Acts 13:
23 Of this man's seed hath God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:
(MY NOTE: Paul teaches a God given promise in scripture: Thru David a Savior/Messiah/Redeemer would be raised-up & Jesus is the fulfillment of this promise)
24 When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
(MY NOTE: John the Baptist was sent to preach the "baptism of repentance" (Isa 40:1-11, Ps 85:9-14, Mal 3:1, Matt 11:10, Mk 1:2) to the PEOPLE of ISRAEL. To Prepare the way (for the PEOPLE) to meet their long promised coming Savior/Messiah/Redeemer. Through whom remission/pardon of sin would be realized)
Acts 19:
1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.
4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
(MY NOTE: Please reread vs 4: John is telling the people to believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. Whom will give remission/forgiveness/pardon of sin)
5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them;
(MY NOTE: Vs 2-4; These Pre Jesus sin atoning payment Jews, baptized by John the Baptist hadn't received. Gods new testament indwelling salvation sealing indwelling Holy Spirit.
Vs 5; These Jews are now baptized in the All Authoritative name that God '"via resurrection power'" placed above All Names (Phil 2:9).
And thru this action of Faith in Jesus once for all time sin atoning sacrifice. They received Christ's new covenant salvation sealing indwelling Holy Spirit, remission/pardon of all sins & Gods promised gift of eternal life)
John's water baptism was a wake-up call & didn't remove/bring remission/pardon/forgive of sin.
Water baptism doesn't remove/bring remission/pardon/forgive sin, repentance doesn't remove/bring remission/pardon/forgive sin.
The only thing that can remove sins stain from a soul is: FAITH. When faith is placed in Jesus once for all time sin atoning sacrifice. Found in Jesus death, (sins required wage/payment due, PAID in FULL) His burial (proof Jesus died) & His resurrection (Father receipt, sins payment received & accepted)
Its not until after Jesus resurrection (Fathers receipt Jesus was Messiah/Sins Redeemer), that every past sin (that had been, Covered Only, by animal sacrifices) received remission/pardon/forgiveness/removal.
Heb 9:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
(MY NOTE: Without Christ's shed blood there is NO Remission/Pardon for sins.)
Mat 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
(NOTE MY : It's Belief/faith in Christ's sinless shed blood that provides the Remission/Pardon for sins. NOT the act of repentance or water baptism)
Col 1:14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
(MY NOTE: Forgiveness of sins are realized thru Christ's atoning sacrifice)
Finally,
No place in John's teaching with you find Jesus death & resurrection. In Acts 2 Peter preaches todays message. Jesus died, was buried & rose again. Whereby Christ's new covenant salvation sealing indwelling Holy Spirit is given to believers.
