Publisher's Synopsis
The Lord tells us (Eph. 4:5) There is but one baptism and that is the one which He, himself gives with the Holy Ghost .and Fire and without which He has decreed that no one shall see His face. An awful perversion and idolatry prevails in Christendom under the adroit manipulation of Satan, that one baptism is immersion in water; thus superceding the Lord's baptism and leading it out in the face of the fact that He positively certifies that without it no one shall see him. (a) That statement is in Heb. 12:14, certifying "without the sanctification no one shall see the Lord." The Greek is hagiasma, from alpha and not gee, the earth. The word is synonymous with baptisma, baptism.
