1 Corinthians 12:13 (New American Standard Bible)You've said a lot to say not much at all that addresses the plain and simple difference in the Greek interlinear and the kjv which I use and like but am also aware of it's minor flaws,
For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:13 (Legacy Standard Bible)
For also by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.

1 Corinthians 12:13 (Christian Standard Bible)

1 Corinthians 12:13 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

1 Corinthians 12:13 (Aramaic Bible in Plain English)
For we also are baptized by The One Spirit into one body, whether Jews or Aramaeans or Servants or free men, and we are all made to drink The One Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:13 (Great Bible):

1 Corinthians 12:13 (Geneva Bible):

As for Acts 12:4:i.e., using the word Easter instead of passover, pascha in Greek, in Acts 12:4.
Well, I would recommend checking out the 3 dollar book called, Don’t Passover Easter at Amazon’s Kindle Store.
It is really a worthwhile read. He goes into how William Tyndale invented the word “Passover” and he looks at the Old Textus Receptus bibles, and dictionaries, ECT. In other words, Easter was the word used for Jewish Passover before William Tyndale came up with the word Passover in English.
It is a really super fast read (20-25 minutes).
Here it is at the Kindle Store:

1 Corinthians 1:17You can't use the kjv to justify the mistranslation of 'by' for 'in', but that passage on and of itself is also not justification for the unscriptural position that baptism is not essential to salvation; way too many passages that clearly say otherwise. Believe what you like. Goodbye
"For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect."
Cornelius and his household heard the gospel message and received the Holy Spirit (Which is the downpayment of their inheritance) BEFORE being water baptized.
