Jesus said he came to baptize in spirit and fire,what does this mean??

Answer 1

This means that He will immerse the society into the correction of the Spirit of God and into the truth, a cleansing fire of judgment by the truth He revealed to us all. In that day, the Jews were subject to the religious leadership of men who were not following the tenets of their faith themselves. They were supplanting the will of God with their own traditions and most of them didn't, themselves, live up to the direction they were giving the people.

Answer 2

In spirit means that his spirit will be with those who are baptized by spirit always. His spirit is with us all, however when one is baptized of the spirit it is more constant due to the fact that the said person already has come to know and love Jesus and can interpret and feel his spirit stronger than those who may not have come to know him yet. Baptize by fire means one in the same. It is called fire because when one is baptized by the spirit or by fire (one in the same) it is an extremely refining process and is sometimes referred to as "the refiners fire."
If done properly, baptism by fire happens after one follows the example of Jesus and is first baptized by immersion. In water, by a proper priesthood holder. Just as he was by John the baptist his cousin.
When one is baptized by fire, hands are laid upon your head and the gift of the holy ghost is conferred upon you as well as any other blessings that God sees fit for you.
Jesus was not baptized by fire because when one is, it his his spirit that is with us.
I do hope that this has helped you.

Baptized by The Spirit. now water.

Do Not Quench the Spirit
Ephesians 4:30
A campfire needs fuel to burn. Campers will add dry sticks and leaves to keep the flames high and hot, but when it is time to sleep, they will either starve the fire or forcibly put it out with water or dirt.
The Lord has lit a fire in every believer’s heart. We must learn to heed Paul’s warning against quenching the Spirit and tend the flame of faith with care (1 Thessalonians 5:19). A newly saved person is sealed forever as a child of God by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. Nothing can expel Him from their being. But with our actions and attitudes, we can stifle His voice. As Christians, we are to walk by the Spirit, relying upon Him to give guidance and fulfill our needs. When we choose to sin, however, the Spirit of God is muffled and consequently unable to operate as He normally does. It is as if we throw cold water on our heart’s fire.
Saying no when the Spirit prompts us to obey is rebellion. If we do not prayerfully deal with the fallout from our disobedience, we begin to drift away from the Lord. Other interests pull our attention away from reading the Bible and talking with God. Church loses its appeal. Our hungering and thirsting after the things of Christ wanes so we cease to feed our soul. Our faith fire slowly starves into ash.
Believers must fuel their flame with spiritual “kindling” — prayer, reading God’s Word, sharing the Gospel, and serving others. A hot fire has cleansing power. When we confess our sins and practice these disciplines, our heart stays clean. And the power of God flows through a clean heart.

Answer 4

The correct Name of the Messiah is Yahshua.
It was not Him that said this it was Yahchanan ( John the Baptist ).
What John said was either Yahshua will baptize you with Holy Spirit so you can understand the Scriptures or He will burn you in the lake of fire to get you out of the way of those who will believe.
