There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism – yes… the early disciples did at the beginning baptize converts in water,…but God does not count man’s water baptism. Considering,… that everything Jesus did was for mankind, thus by his own baptism everyone…. has been baptized into Christ…because he was the Lamb of God that taketh away the sins of the world (John 1:29)

The whole human race died and was buried (baptized) by the Messiah's baptism. Any water baptism done now by a believer, it is simply getting him wet…b/c we should be teaching - the complete end of physical water baptism.
Where did the apostle's get the water baptism from? Who told them to do it?
