Some believe that 1 Corinthians 15:29 ("Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? Why are they then baptized for the dead?") indicates that baptisms for the dead was a practice anciently while others interpret this verse to mean that being baptized is a way of showing that you believe in life after death. Other verses, such as John 5:25 and 1 Peter 4:6, indicate that the gospel is preached among the dead. If this is literally speaking of the deceased and not the dead in spirit, it is not out of order to assume that there must be some sort of baptism for these Christians who accept Christ after death.
Outside of The Bible, Christian history shows evidence that baptisms in behalf of the dead were performed in the very early days of the Church. There is evidence that the Montanites and Marcionites (both early Christian groups) had a similar practice. Additionally, the practice of baptism for the dead was condemned in 393 AD by the Council of Hippo, which is evidence that it must have been done.

In the Bible St. Peter saw Paul performing miracles and ask Paul to teach him but Paul refused. Where do you find this There is no such scenario described in the Bible.

Why are two oils important in a baptism?
That's an interesting question especially since there is no mention of any oils in connection with Christian baptism in the Bible. What I think you will find is that some person or church council created the use of oils in connection with baptism. After the church began (Pentecost after the crucifixion), oils in connection with religious services are found one time. In James 5:14 it is mentioned but not in connection with baptism. In fact its use in James is likely a reference to a cultural medical treatment of the day. Biblical baptism is immersion in water for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38). Bryant
