^4 (A)There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; ^5 (B)one Lord, ^(C)one faith, ^(D)one baptism;

^11 (A)I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. ^(B)He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit ^[a]and fire. ^12 (C)His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather His wheat into the barn; but He will ^(D)burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

⁴ Therefore we were ^(A)buried with Him through baptism into death, that ^(B)just as Christ was raised from the dead by ^(C)the glory of the Father, ^(D)even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Not Legalism but Christ

¹¹ In Him you were also ^(A)circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, by ^(B)putting off the body ^[a]of the sins of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, ^12 (C)buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through ^(D)faith in the working of God, ^(E)who raised Him from the dead.

^5 (A)for John truly baptized with water, ^(B)but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

¹⁴ I thank God that I baptized ^(A)none of you except ^(B)Crispus and ^(C)Gaius, ¹⁵ lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name. ¹⁶ Yes, I also baptized the household of ^(D)Stephanas. Besides, I do not know whether I baptized any other. ¹⁷ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, ^(E)not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.
