So naturally you want to know exactly what people are referring to when you see that.

I've even recently inquired myself on another thread. So.......

Three stepper seems pretty obvious. Acts 2:38.....that's what I believe

one stepper: Repentence necessary.....baptism will follow but not believed to be neccessary (then why do it is my question?)....receiving the baptism of the Holy Ghost evidenced by speaking in tongues (haven't really figured out what the so called one steppers here believe about that).
It is very necessary - I have not seen a discussion here, where baptism was considered dispensable. The question is rather, "Does God place someone in right standing with Him at the moment of baptism, but not a moment before?"

I am a firm believer in the Old Paths
