According to xyz:
A call to repentance is not command for baptism.

So are you saying that in light of the Lucan passages, in which the anointing of John is ascribed to the angel of the Lord, the word of God, and the Holy Spirit, John went beyond his office in commanding his hearers to be baptised?
Only when he thought they needed to repent, and intended to repent.
