God MUST awaken the sinner to their need for a Saviour and convict of sin BEFORE repentance, baptism, or infilling can be profitable. Salvation begins by a sovereign move of God upon the heart of the sinner. Not just anyone can choose to obey Acts 2:38 and be saved in accordance to their own will. If their being "born again" isn't being "born of God"... we just dunked a religionist and shook them into jabbering.

John 1:13
13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. (KJV)

One is not saved at the prick of the heart. Wouldn't you agree?
