For John baptized with water John the Baptist's ministry was characterized by a call to repentance and the symbolic act of water baptism. This act was a public declaration of repentance and preparation for the coming Messiah. John's baptism was a precursor to the new covenant, symbolizing cleansing and the need for spiritual renewal. In Matthew 3:11, John himself distinguishes his baptism from the one Jesus would bring, highlighting the temporary and preparatory nature of his own ministry. The use of water in baptism also connects to Jewish purification rituals, which were common in the first-century context. but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.

Teaching Points Understanding BaptismRecognize the distinction between water baptism and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Water baptism symbolizes repentance and cleansing, while the baptism of the Holy Spirit signifies empowerment and transformation. The Role of the Holy Spirit Emphasize the importance of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer. The Spirit empowers, guides, and equips us for service and witness. Waiting on God's Timing Just as the disciples were instructed to wait for the Holy Spirit, we must learn to wait on God's timing in our lives, trusting His perfect plan. Empowerment for Mission The baptism of the Holy Spirit is not just for personal edification but for empowering believers to fulfill the Great Commission. Living in Expectation Encourage believers to live with an expectation of the Holy Spirit's work in their lives, being open to His leading and guidance.(5) John truly baptized with water.--See Note on Matthew 3:11. The words threw the disciples back upon their recollection of their first admission to the Kingdom. Some of them, at least, must have remembered also the teaching which had told them of the new birth of water and of the Spirit (John 3:3-5). Now they were told that their spirits were to be as fully baptised, i.e., plunged, into the power of the Divine Spirit, as their bodies had then been plunged in the waters of the Jordan. And this was to be "not many days hence." The time was left undefined, as a discipline to their faith and patience. They were told that it would not be long, lest faith and patience should fail.Verse 5. - Indeed for truly, A.V. Ye shall be baptized, etc. (Comp. Matthew 3:11; Luke 3:16; John 1:33.) St. Peter refers to this saying of the Lord's in his address to the Church of Jerusalem (Acts 11:16), and the record of it here may be an indication that St. Luke derived his information of these early events from Peter. A curious question arises as to the baptism of the apostles themselves. When were they baptized, and by whom? Chrysostom says, "They were baptized by John." But it is evident, from John 3:22; John 4:1, 2, that converts were baptized with Christian, as distinct from John's, baptism in our Lord's lifetime, and hence it may seem probable, especially considering that St. Paul was baptized, that the apostles may have been baptized by Christ (Bishop Wordsworth On John 4:2). If so, the baptism with the Holy Ghost at Pentecost was the complement of that baptism, not the substitute for it. "In our case," says Chrysostom, "both (the baptism of water and of the Spirit) take place under one act, but then they were divided." Parallel Commentaries ...
