I'm going to skip all your rejection and misrepresentation of what I said and point out to you that it is spoken no less than five times of Jesus baptizing the believer with the Holy Spirit, and it is the same word you claim simply means "getting wet."
If your belief was biblical, you would reject water baptism as being necessary for salvation.
Actually, I believe the baptism of the Holy Spirit is mentioned six times. You are the one who uses the words "simply . . . getting wet." As far as I'm concerned there's a lot more to the baptism of the Holy Spirit than "simply . . . getting wet." However, if you desire to characterize my beliefs in that pejorative fashion that's your choice. Just remember it's your characterization, not what I really believe.
Since "getting wet" in water baptism is not the same thing as the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I agree.
