We are trying to compartmentalize everything when God created everything to work together and in harmony - the death, burial and ressurection. You can't be saved without repenting, being baptized or being filled with His Spirit. It's not that hard to figure out.

I think what he's saying is baptism is empty (like the Catholics who baptize infants) if you haven't repented - the step where your sins are remitted.
