You appear to be saying that John's disciples were indeed "shown salvation" and the "remission of sins" as Zacharias had called John's ministry ( Luke 1:77). But then they had to wait 30 years (about) for the actual "remission of their sins" in Acts 19.
Yet Acts 2:38 and Mark 1:4 both use the same language for "the remission of sins." Whatever "remission" that takes place in your church as you practice Acts 2:38 is described with the same identical prepositions and verbs as John's ministry in Mark 1 and Luke 3.
Sins were remitted under John's ministry even before our Lord Himself stepped into the water in Matthew 3. |
The dispensation changed at Calvary and Pentecost. ONLY baptism in Jesus Name remits men sins from the day of Pentecost til the end of the church age.
