Hi James,
I don't want to get bogged down in another dispute but it seems water baptism was practiced by the first century church and with the ministry of John the Baptist it's hard to dispute. Look at these verses:

Acts 10:44-45
44 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who
were listening to the message.
45 And all the circumcised believers were amazed, because the gift of the Holy Spirit
has been poured out upon the Gentiles also.
46 For they were hearing them speaking with tongues and exalting God. Then Peter
answered,
47 "Surely no one can refuse the water for these to be baptized who have recieved the
Holy Spirit just as we did, can he?"
48 And he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked
him to stay on for a few days.
