QUESTION???
Does anyone know what this quote means in Luke:
49 I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled! 50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished!. [NKJV] Glory is due to our God to the age of all ages. Amen
Thank you in advance. ???

Our god was taking about the Holy Spirit whom He will send on the Day of Pentecost to kindle the hearts of the believers. But he has first to accomplish the salvation of the world on the cross, which He refereed as baptism. The word baptism means to die and be burred.
