Why Would Christ​​​ Be Called John?

Why was Elizabeth so adamant about naming John the Baptist such? She wasn't - the Flavians were. Note what in Elizabeth's life had led up to the birth of "John": her immaculately conceiving John, her husband being unable to speak for nine months and her husband's inability to preside over the Passover Festival. Yet through no recorded interaction with a divine principle, upon giving birth, she just decided to prophetically name her son John - a name that was supposedly never used by her lineage before, and to the astonishment of all those who came to witness John's birth. Why didn't the Flavians want the son of Zechariah to be title-named Zechariah after his father? The "sudden" appearance of the ritual of baptism reveals something much deeper: in ancient Sumerian, the act of baptism was called Sakhar, which is the phonetic basis of the root term in the title-name Zechariah (Zechar, derived from Zeker), with the suffix (Iah) meaning "Lord". For example, Sargon I was titled "The Sakhar Lord" in reference to his being both ruler and fire baptizer. As such, unbeknownst to most people, by John being called "The Baptist", one is equating him with his father's title-name, which is upheld by the ritual of baptism for which "John" is known, and which shows him to be a uniquely spiritual ruler.

What's more, John was called The Baptist (singular), not simply a baptizer (which would imply one of two or more), but The Baptizer. Yet there are two baptisms referenced in the New Testament: one of water, and one of fire, with the water baptism preceding the fire baptism. Yet Jesus - whom it is claimed is the one who is to come after John and who "shall baptize with fire" - is never referred to as The Baptist or even as a Baptist. Why isn't Jesus called "Jesus the Baptist"? Because there is only one Baptizer, and it is John. The one who John is referring to - the one who is to "come after him" is a reference to his own future self. This is why John stated that he "must decrease", in order that the coming one "increase".

Water is the element of material manifestation. It is the antithesis of fire, which is the element of spiritual manifestation. The human body is comprised of approximately 70% water. When a human being comes forward from their mother's womb, it is referred to as birthing (phonetically synonymous with berthing). Baptism by water is a reference to the paternal order of life through which spirit is immersed into a material body in order to experience manifestation.

Still further, now that it is revealed that the title Zechariah implies the fire baptism (Sakhar), the passage regarding John stating that Jesus shall baptize with fire would be synonymous with John handing his birthright over to Jesus unless John is referring to his own future station as the fire baptizer or Zechariah. 

Keeping in mind that in Judaism, the day begins at evening time, Baptisms are references not only to the elements water and fire, but to times of day as well as heavenly bodies. The baptism by water is the sunset baptism (In Hebrew "Salome", consisting of dew as the earth cools and the false "evening star" Venus rises). The baptism by fire is the dawn baptism (In Hebrew "Shahar/Shachar", embodied in the first light of the fiery Sun and the TRUE Morning Star Sirius) - which is midday in the Judaic day. A significant realization to be found in all of this, which will be expanded upon later, is that Venus is not a star, but rather a pretend star which the ancients knew to in fact be a planet.

In Egyptian, the deity Seker was known as the drier - a reference to the act of the Sun wicking moisture out of the Earth, which is the source of the Latin term Sec, meaning dry.
