Many OP's believe repentance is DEATH WITH JESUS, baptism is BURIAL WITH JESUS and Spirit infilling is RESURRECTION WITH JESUS.
I disagree, personally. Baptism involves all the death, burial and resurrection! That is why Paul said in
Romans 6 that baptism puts us into His death, and
Col 2:11-12 says baptism sees us
buried and risen with Christ. We are not "repented" into His death, but "baptized" into His death.
Colossians 2:11-12 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ: (12) Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
...although Paul might have meant "risen with Him" is not experienced through baptism, but through a subsequent faith in God's operation.
Anyway, the point is that salvation is death, burial and resurrection with Jesus which occurred on the day of Pentecost for 3,000.
