Yes. There were many elements of the "Three Step" throughout history but there is not a single shred of evidence that anyone practiced the "full package" until the 20th Century.
This of course presents no problem at all for those who believe that Jesus Christ Himself is the Savior. Those who demand formula or rituals being done in just the right manner will have some problems. Formulas and rituals don't save. Jesus saves.
