To me salvation is at the infilling (ducking). Anyone can say they have repented or believe, but only God knows the heart, and if the heart of repentance is true and pure then the infilling WILL follow. Seek and ye shall find. It is our promise from Him. If the God Almighty fills one with His spirit then whether or not that one is saved is no longer a question. Baptized or not. Yet one who recieves the Holy Ghost is going to get baptized, the Spirit will insist it.

Scotty, ALL who believe have passed from death unto life
(John 3:15-16, 36; 5:24; 6:40,47; 11:25,26), therefore ALL who believe possess the life giving Spirit of God. These are to be baptized.
