Anoint means to be poured on or in something
Baptism means to immerse or plunge into something
Two different words. Two different meaning, and two different function.
The annointing of the spirit (he being poured out into us, when he seals us and gifts us) is one function of the HS.
He also Baptizes us into Christ, his body (the church) his death, his burial and the cross. This is what cleanses you from all sin, and allows the HS to be poured out into you (anoint)
I am not trying to be mean here But your leaders have given you a false representation of what it means to be baptized with the spirit.

This is what the bible says and Jesus says...aren't you willing to believe what it says or Jesus says? Well, here I am clueless to the water baptism is part of the Gospel unto salvation...
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:18
He that believeth on him is not condemned: but hethat believeth not is condemned already, because hehath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
Romans 3:26
To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that hemight be just, and the justifier of him which believethin Jesus.
1 Peter 2:6
Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and hethat believeth on him shall not be confounded.
1 John 5:10
He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made hima liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

Joh 20:20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.
Joh 20:21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.
Joh 20:22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
Joh 20:23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.
Act 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Act 1:9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
Act 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Act 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
False?

False?
Did you not say once that you had one word? If I’m remembering right, then you do have tongues. I’ve had many experiences with different Pentecostal meetings, and I’ve seen some just receive one word. For whatever reason this is, when a prophet or apostle lays hands on them, there is the release. If you are content, fine.
I believe Jesus did. There are some that teach when the disciples asked Jesus to show them how to pray, that it was the spiritual language they were asking about. It wasn’t yet time, so He gives then what we call the Lord’s Prayer. I find this to be plausible.
Plus what He spoke on the Cross, and also at the raising of the one young girl, he spoke words in ancient Chaldean. Both times the scripture states it had to be interpreted.

The points are there .Is there something in particular you do not understand. Have you looked as the law found in 1 Corinthian 14:22-23 Once a person understands what the sign confirms then everything else would no be so difficult . Right now we have all these unknown that some use for wonderment builder uppers.
City of Jerusalem (earthly) as if faith came after the corrupted things seen ? Earthly has never been the holy place of God as if the glory of God as the kingdom of God was of this world or was part of this creation .It will all go up in smoke on the last day .corruptible does not put on the incorruptible .That's the Wolf in sheep's clothing.
Yes in the old testament God did the use the temporal land of Canaan to represent the eternal land. The reformation has come .The use of Jewish flesh in ceremonial law is no longer used. He uses the flesh of all nation to day to bring His gospel The gospel is not about the political nation of the world as if we did wrestles against flesh and blood. or by it. Today he uses the flesh of al the nation of the world to include the outward Jew in respect to the flesh who today is typified as a gentile. That wall came down when the veil was rent .

Sure it does you just don't like or agree .the question...
In the truest sense Balaam's Ass was prophesying ,Asses are used as a metaphor to represent the unsaved.
It does not matter who reads the word of prophecy. Its the Spirit of prophecy that does the teaching. You can read it out loud or use your eyes as a another gate to understanding. They must be in agreement in order that the deaf could hear and the blind can see. What make a prophet true or false are the word he brings. How beautiful are the feet that God moves to bring the gospel.
Isaiah 29:18 And in that day shall the deaf hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity, and out of darkness.

My leaders? No, I study here at home and the church that I attended most was word of faith church. Though we had the gifts, we were more into the Word.
Can’t say I’ve spent a lot of time in a Pentecostal church to be taught. Lester Sumralls when a young believer but I was watching what was going on more than listening.
I don’t know why we didn’t move in the gifts in the Word church.
I think you are confusing to read. But, I care for your heart that you show in loving Jesus.
First love is powerful too.

Know anybody who has seen a Yowie down in those parts?
https://www.australianyowieresearchcentre.com/yowie-introduction-part2.html
"Back in 1898, a Mr Jack Petheridge was one of a party of graziers in search of good pasture lands beyond Broome in the 'top end' of Western Australia on the fringe of the wild north-west Kimberley region. Penetrating inland across the Fitzroy River, they entered the Oscar Range country. Jack was 25 years old at the time and a good shot with a rifle, supplying the group with kangaroo meat during the expedition. What follows is from Jack's own diary, still preserved by descendants now living in Perth.
"My companions and I had been out from Broome for two months, and as we were low on food again I went out one day to shoot more game. I approached a stand of trees and dense shrubbery. When it was but 30 yards distant, I heard rustling among the foliage. "Then, to my horror, an enormous ape of the gorilla family emerged into view, fully 14 feet in height. His snarling mouth displayed large teeth and his eyes were deeply set within thick eyebrows. His forehead sloped back, and long thick reddish-brown hair trailed from his head which was sunk into the shoulders, giving him a stooped gait.
I observed his large genitals and his strong muscular body and arms which appeared much longer than a normal man's. His hands and fingers were very large and he gripped a high tree-branch with his left hand as he stood looking menacingly at me. "The man-ape began advancing toward me and it was then that I fired a shot at the brute's chest. He screamed and clutched his chest but kept coming, so I fired again-a fatal shot at his head-and brought him down only feet from me. The man-ape was covered over much of his body in thick reddish-brown hair and had very large feet with an opposable big toe.
I ran back to camp to tell my disbelieving companions but, after they saw the body, the first thought was how many more of these gorillas were thereabouts. But the creature's great height and bulk was much more than any ordinary gorilla to our knowledge and, anyway, what were such animals doing in Australia?" The men left this "gorilla" lying there and abandoned the region to head for home. Jack later returned to the area with a naturalist, but, by then, months had passed and they could find no trace of the animal's bones."
