... the Acts of the Apostles, we find that men who had “John’s baptism” had not received the Holy Spirit, whom they knew not even by hearing. That, then, was no celestial thing which furnished no celestial (endowments): whereas the very thing which was celestial in John—the Spirit of prophecy—so completely failed, after the transfer of the whole Spirit to the Lord, that he presently sent to inquire whether He whom he had himself preached, whom he had pointed out when coming to him, were “HE.”[Luke 7:18-23] And so “the baptism of repentance” was dealt with as if it were a candidate for the remission and sanctification shortly about to follow in Christ: for in that John used to preach “baptism for the remission of sins,” the declaration was made ...

[36] And the apostles went forth, and preached to the people that they might repent. [37] And they cast out many devils, and anointed many sick with oil, and healed them.

Of the Account Given by Matthew and Luke of the Occasion When John the Baptist Was in Prison, and Despatched His Disciples on a Mission to the Lord. (HTML)

CCEL Footnote 992 (In-Text, Margin)

But it is not made clear which of them gives the order of his own recollections, and which keeps by the historical succession of the things themselves.
