But in the cycle of Baha'u'llah there is no longer need of this symbol; for its reality, which is to be baptized with the spirit and love of God, is understood and established. (saq 92) (10:18) So, although Baha'is realize that baptism is an essential aspect of salvation, and that they themselves need this grace, their interpretation of the meaning of baptism is clearly not the baptism of John, which was with physical water, but the baptism whereby the Christ was to baptize.
(10:19)
