Does one really believe if they don't act on the belief? What about not just being a hearer of the Word but a doer also?
Folks that believed John where dunked in the river by him. If not then they did not believe. Folks that believed Jesus and His disciples where dunked also.
(
Joh 3:22) After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.
(
Joh 3:23) And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.
(
Joh 3:26) And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.
(
Joh 4:1) When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
(
Joh 4:2) (Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)
(
Act 2:38) Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
(
Act 2:41) Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.
(
Act 8:12) But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
Or what about these folks who beleived and where baptized in the Spirit?
(
Act 10:47) Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
(
Act 10:48) And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days
