NINE BAPTISMS

There are five non-water baptisms and four water baptisms in the Bible.

Non-Water Baptisms

 1.  Baptism of Moses:  1 Corinthians 10:1-2

 2.  Baptism of the Cup:  Matthew 20:22; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 Peter 2:24

 3.  Baptism of the Christian believer by the Holy Spirit into Jesus:  1 Corinthians 12:13

 4.  Baptism of the Christian believer by Jesus with the Holy Spirit:  Matthew 3:11; Luke 3:16

 5.  Baptism of Fire:  Matthew 3:11; Luke 3:16

Water Baptisms

 1.  Baptism of John:  Matthew 3:6

 2.  Baptism of Jesus:  Matthew 3:13-17

 3.  Baptism of the Church Age Believer: Matthew 28: 19

 4.  Baptism for the dead.  1 Corinthians 15:29 *

*    The Apostle Paul was critical of this practice in this passage.  It was not a valid Christian practice, and it is not a valid Christian practice today.  Any such practice of baptizing for the dead should be considered an heretical practice among Christians.
