Because the Old Testament existed, and many prophets and leaders came before Christ. Christianity is just an evolved form of Judaism.
That's a no brainer...Baptism

Congratulations on your baptism! May this be a meaningful and transformative step in your spiritual journey. Your commitment to your faith is inspiring, and I wish you continued growth and blessings in your walk with God.
to let people know if the time period was before or after Jesus Christ.
I cannot possibly know which of the hundreds of 'Baptism of Christ' paintings you mean. It is one of the favorite subjects of Christian artists through the centuries. Let me make a wild guess: You are thinking of the painting by Andrea del Verrocchio, on which the young Leonardo da Vinci painted some details. This painting is in the Uffizi Museum, Florence, Italy. A very good depiction of the Baptism of Christ can be found in the Life of Christ painting by Jackson Bailey.

Jesus instructed his disciples before he ascended:Mat 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,Baptism was common during those times. People got baptized to show they associated with someone or something. Jesus said make disciples and baptize them. So baptism in the Bible is a believers baptism, not the baptism of infants but the baptism of someone who has made the decision to accept God's gift of salvation through faith in Christ.Christian baptism is the outward showing of an inward rebirth. It is symbolic of being buried and rising again, reborn. Baptism in water symbolizes burial with Christ in death and rising with him in newness of life:Romans 6:3,4 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we are buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life .Baptism does not add to a person's salvation. A person is saved by trusting Christ. Baptism does not make a person saved. It is also wrong to think that a person is not saved until they are baptized.The mode of baptism is not that important. Some people practice immersion where the entire body goes under the water. Others practice sprinkling where the believer is sprinkled with the water. Contrary to what some people teach, the New Testament does not clearly spell out a proper mode of baptism.If you have trusted Christ as your Savior, then you should be baptized. While this act, in and of itself, will not save you, it will be done as an outward sign of an inward change.
How I know that I am undergoing Baptism of Fire?
I really dont know!sorry...
"to make know world-wide the forgiveness of sins through the atoning death of Christ; the baptism in water by immersion; the baptism of the Holy Ghost; the five gifts of our Ascended Lord; and the vision referred to in the New Testament as 'the Church which is his Body."
British Columbia? That's the only BC I know
The Christ Redeemer was built because people know that Jesus Christ is real.
