I believe in baptism, but one cannot state it saves your eternal soul merely by being baptized. If that were the case, we would just set up baptismal tanks at wal-mart; free baptisms with a $5.00 purchase.
Baptism is an external work. Salvation is an inside job!

But DID anyone besides you state that?
Yes, but is baptism only an external work though? Is it not the THE ANSWER OF A GOOD CONSCIENCE TOWARD GOD for the new believer?
