Jesus.
(Matthew 28:19-20 NASB)"..Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them ...teaching them to observe all that I commanded you..."
(Acts 2:38)(Acts 8:12)
Yes, because Jesus Himself accepted baptism in the Jordan River, and He commanded His disciples to go and preach and to baptize. "He who believes and is baptized will be saved" (Mark 16:15-16). The Church has maintained this practice of baptism for over 2,000 years.
After Jesus commanded it in Matthew 28:19 - Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Baptism and Holy Communion. But, Lutherans are not dogmatic about the number of sacraments. A sacrament is a rite, commanded by God Himself, in which He makes Himself especially present. It is taught that Holy Baptism an Holy Communion are sacraments. Often, Confession and Absolution is referred to as the "third sacrament." The other four rites ( confirmation, marriage, holy orders, anointing of the sick) are viewed as sacramental in nature, while not necessarily, or so clearly definable as, sacraments.
The Baptism Pool holds the water that will be used for the Baptism.
After John the Baptist died, it is believed that Jesus Christ continued the practice of baptism. According to the New Testament, Jesus and His disciples baptized people during His ministry. Later, after Jesus' resurrection, His followers were commanded to baptize as part of the Great Commission, spreading the practice of baptism throughout the early Christian community.
There are two things that need to be explained here before we can answer the question. Water baptism and the "great commission" The "Great commission" is Jesus' command to go into the world and preach the gospel to as many people as possible. It is the message that salvation comes through Jesus and no other. Water baptism is also commanded by Jesus. Baptism is and outward sign of what has gone on inside of a person. By going through baptism the person is saying to the world that I am a believer. I belong to Jesus. He is my master and Lord. Now we can answer the question: After a person has responded to the great commission by accepting Jesus as Savior then he is baptized to proclaim that to the world.
There is no baptism in the Jewish religion. Only Christians have baptism.
There is no such thing as a Jewish baptism.
