For Christians only. Is baptism not necessary for salvation?

That's a good question. If we study the Bible, particularly the practice of believers in bible times, we can see that baptism has nothing to do with salvation. Before a person is baptized, they believed and trusted Jesus Christ first. Read the book of Acts and observe! Good day.

Hi Muliaman, Baptism is not necessary for salvation. Blessings.

Honestly that is a tough question. In my opinion it's not. Because when you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart then you are saved and have salvation.

Our church basically teaches that baptism is basically a public declaration that you are a follower in Christ. It is really a symbolic act and is not necessary to be saved. For me, personally, it is a sign that a person is ready to begin their ministry in the Lord. Jesus didn't get baptized until just before he started his own ministry and I think he was about 30 at the time.
