-manship

[WillGreek]

Koine Greek Suffix, -ma. Baptis-ma

Result Of Action: The result or effect of an action is expressed by the primary suffix, -ma.
(nom. -ma, neut.): gram-ma, thing written (graphO, I write), noE-ma, thought (noeO, I think), poiE-ma, poem (poieO, I make).

Baptis-ma, is [neuter gender.singular number.nominative case].

The "result of action" that God wanted in the flood was to save eight souls. Therefore, Peter writes, "saved [through[dia] water." Then Peter goes on to write, "Which antitype, baptisma, now saves us."

Baptis-ma is the "result of action" that I, [A. Repented, B. Believed, C. Been Baptized in the Name of my Lord, Christ Jesus, D. Received the gift of the Holy Spirit]. I am now a new creation in the Lord Jesus Christ.

PoiE-ma is the "result of action." Eph 2:10 For we are his [work-manship[poiE-ma], created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Workmanship mean, "A ship floats on water, a man works while on the ship". Work man ship. Boy, I got "water and works." That's better than water baptism.

"-manship, a combination of -man and -ship, used as an independent suffix with the meaning “skill in a particular activity, esp. of a competitive nature”: brinkmanship; grantsmanship; one-upmanship; sometimes compounded with a plural noun by analogy with craftsmanship, marksmanship, sportsmanship, etc."

Poetship, Poet-ship, n. The state or personality of a poet.
