The baptism of the holy Spirit is a separate infilling of the Holy Spirit from that of salvation. It is usually accompanied with the evidence of speaking in tongues. This is an empowerment for service to God.
Fullness of the Spirit is living in knowledge, obedience, and power through the leading of the Holy Spirit.

There is one baptism. It happens when you are born again...you are baptized into the body of Christ. The water baptism is a physical demonstration of what happened spiritually, which is you died with Christ (going down in the water), and you rise to new life, a new creation when you come up out of the water.
The fullness of the Holy Spirit can happen many times. It's when you are operating in the Spirit, doing his work, and sometimes you can feel his presence.
The baptism happens once. You can be filled with the Spirit many times.

5 different types of baptism in scripture. Water baptism is to identify you with Christ, a public annoucement. The Holy spirit is what you get after accepting Christ, sometimes are follwed by gifts, tounges, miracles, interpretation of tounges, helps etc

baptism is symbolic in the death and ressurection of christ. fullness of the holy spirit is the descending of the holy spirit on a person after accepting Jesus Christ.
Baptism is a commandment of christ...all who accept christ should be baptised after doing so. It symbolizes dying of the old and being raised with christ in the newness of life. Salvation brings the comforter or the holy spirit. Salvation is immediate, it occurs exactly at the time you accept christ.
hope this helps....
Matthew 3:11
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Mark 1:8
I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
John 14:26
But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
