There has been one baptism of the world in the whole scale of it. The former heaven and earth we purged of its former tenants (read: Creation by same author) and it had to be all brought down, its time structure and its seasons, Moses speaks by revelation in the book of Genesis, that the ruins that God refurbished for man to occupy was a soup of both heaven and earth mingled in water. II Peter 3:5-7 KJV So this world was called out of water and out of its mixture with clay came us; the human body. It is water that constantly refurbishes and that is why even our baptism in to Christ is necessitated by water. Out of water it was called and by water it has been preserved (Baptism of Noah and family), as the rain that waters the ground that the Lord availeth to all in the earth. It is not just us that take the strength of the rain but even the ground takes of the water to produce. So the system of water preservation will endure to the day of the Lord when the world is purged by fire and shall emerge full of the Glory of our Lord and God Jesus Christ. II Peter 3:10 KJV Then this current world will pass away, just as it came out of water, it will go in to fire. The fire will purge it by bringing it to nought and then a new earth without sea will arise and it shall be for forever. II Peter 3:10 KJV
