Baptism only occurs once. Re-baptism in the New Testament seemingly occurred when a group of people had never received the Holy Spirit (Eph. 4:30; Acts 1:4-5; 2:38,41; 8:12-13, 36-39). John's baptism pointed to the coming Messiah, who would baptize with the Spirit and with fire (Matthew 3:11). Baptism shows that a person has died to the old way of life and has been raised to a new kind of life, life eternal in Christ.
